I'm Paul, and I've enthusiastically joined the pickleball craze. Coaching is my passion, and I'm here to help players of all ages enhance their skills, grasp strategy & utilize it to their advantage, and truly enjoy the game! Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned player, let's work together to achieve your pickleball goals and have a blast doing it! I personally play pickleball at least 5 days a week, and I’ve been coaching now for 2 years. I’d love for the opportunity to make a positive & lasting impact by being part of your personal pickleball journey!

"The lesson was quite good, especially getting a chance to work on my serve and game play. Though I’d like to see more of the same focus, it felt quite practical and helpful overall. Paul’s approach feels measured and straightforward, which is just right for where I’m at. If you’re looking to improve specific aspects like serving or gameplay, I’d say give him a try.

Having embraced the world of pickleball for three and a half years, I bring a unique blend of passion and a tennis background to the court. Beyond the love for both sports, my forte lies in unraveling the nuances of pickleball, enhancing shot selection, and refining strategic gameplay. I take joy in fostering connections within the pickleball community, uniting players of similar skill levels for a shared love of the game. Join me for a pickleball experience where strategic insights meet community building, creating a dynamic and enriching environment on the court. Let's elevate your pickleball journey together!

"I’d say the lesson with Mayra was quite helpful. She explained the fundamental rules pretty clearly and offered good feedback on my serve, though I still need to work on my positioning. Still, I appreciated her focus on basic strategies, which made me more confident about playing with others. If you're looking to get started or brush up on the fundamentals, you might want to give Mayra a try.

With nearly five years of pickleball instruction and podium finishes at the 5.0+ level, I help athletes of all levels with skill development and strategic thinking. I’m open for one-on-one and group sessions. I can often find you a compatible lesson partner when schedules mesh. I have 25 years of fitness coaching experience with an expertise in injury reduction. I train and work with pickleball athletes on and off court. Pickleball is a footwork sport and I love teaching players the important details — whether it be technique or strategies for on court success. Your goals are my goals — I work to help you shine and be a force on court!

"Leslie is great at breaking down the game and helping us understand the basics.

"3 lessons, More than expected, this is exactly what I was looking for! Thank you!

Hi! My name is Benjamin and I have been playing pickleball for over 10 years now. With that, I’ve seen exactly how much the game has changed over the last decade and grown alongside it. Now I’m a freshman at UT Austin studying mechanical engineering and playing on the competitive travel team. I’m young, energetic, and honestly just grateful for the chance to share all the knowledge I’ve picked up along the way. I love playing and helping people actually advance to the next level, let’s do this.

"Working with Benjamin has been a game-changer for my overall court awareness. We focused heavily on the transition zone and hitting quality thirds to get to the net safely. He’s incredibly observant and catches the small habit flaws that most people miss. If you want to play a smarter, more strategic version of pickleball, I definitely suggest booking a session with him
