Private Lessons & Coaches in Graham, NC
These coaches teach at top ranked spots and have great lesson fulfillment & student reviews.
Greetings! I'm new to North Carolina, was just transferred by my company to Triad area. I was recently privileged to be coaching 13 students weekly in December 2025. I'm a former Tournament Competition player who played at the Championship Tournament Level with 20 years of coaching, I enjoy helping players of all levels reach their full potential on the court. I foster a fun, yet disciplined environment where skills are honed and a love for the game is ignited. I purposely keep my hourly rate as low as possible, not for lack of experience but rather to allow young ones and all families to be able to afford an introduction to this wonderful game. I am a busy professional but like many other busy coaches, I volunteer for Programs at various schools and clubs to help underprivileged kids and was proudly volunteering my time for the Aceing Autism program in DFW and look forward to joining the local effort as well.
"It is a great session.

"The lesson was quite good, especially putting the things I learn into practice. Coach's focus helped me feel more comfortable moving around the court and I think I’m quite a bit more confident now.

"Wow, Jens's patience and encouragement really made the lesson stand out. Though I still have some areas to refine, I appreciated how approachable and calm he was throughout.

I have been teaching people to play pickleball for over three years and love the excitement and fun of new players. I find tennis players and racquetball players and other paddle sports players quickly grasp the rules and need just a little coaching in strategies and shots to quickly become intermediate players. people without a sports background need more in-depth personalized coaching, which is my forte. I love helping people discover their inner jock for the first time and love how much fun even the most basic player has in pickleball. my lessons emphasize the fun while helping learn the basics.
"The lesson with Mesa was quite insightful, especially in focusing on fundamental techniques. Though I still need to work on my shot consistency, I’m feeling more confident about improving and might try another lesson soon.

"Ed was quite helpful, especially with my net game, emphasizing paddle control and passing on helpful tips like holding my ground and hitting down on lobs. Still, more practice on dinking and unattackable serves would be great, though I left feeling more confident. If you're interested in sharpening specific skills, Ed's a solid choice to try out.
