These coaches teach at top ranked spots and have great lesson fulfillment & student reviews.

Hello, I'm a dedicated pickleball coach with a rich history in the sport. I proudly hold a PPR certification for over two years. I have consistently played at the 4.5 level for the last four years. My dedication extends beyond personal accolades. I've been teaching at our local courts, offering lessons to budding players. With me, you'll master the essentials, from the correct paddle grip and game rules to serving, returning, dinking drills, and understanding the basic mechanics. Let's work together and boost your confidence on the court! In 2024, I co-captained and played on both women's and mixed APPL league teams. BOTH women's and mixed took first place at the state finals championship for 4.5 50+ division.
"Honestly, Kari’s lesson really stood out. She’s quite knowledgeable and easy to connect with, breaking down tricky movements into simple steps. I left with a better grasp of some complex shots, and yeah, I definitely feel more confident on the court now. If you’re looking for a lesson that’s thoughtful and tailored, Kari’s a good pick.

As a 5.0 Pro DUPR-rated player and PPR Certified Professional, with a background as a 3-time Junior National Champion, I bring over 13 years of dedicated pickleball experience to my role as the Pickleball Coach at Grand Canyon University. My journey in pickleball has been defined by a commitment to excellence both on and off the court, aiming to inspire and mentor players of all levels to achieve their best in this dynamic sport.
"Great Player, Fun Guy to be around.
