Private Lessons & Coaches in Gallatin, TN

I've had a racquet in my hand since I was 5 and lived in Nashville since 1993, having grown up in Cnooga. I've won the Hillwood Country Club championship 4 of the last 6 years and picked up a passion for pickleball in 2020. I play at a competitive DUPR 4.3 level, bringing 40 years of tennis and 4 years of pickleball to the equation. I got PPR certified in 2022 and in October 2022 opened the Court at West Meade where myself and 3 of our other pros teach. In 2024, I taught over 500 people how to play pickleball with the Pickleball 101 group clinics we run. I teach private lesson weekdays at 9:00

"After having stepped away from the game for over a year due to some personal things, I wanted someone who could help me remember how to play correctly. Your analysis of my game during live action play was so helpful. Now I have specific areas to address and the drills that will help me improve in each of them. I look forward to our next lesson!

""I signed up for 20 lessons with Brian as a summer, socially-distanced outdoor activity. I had taken group lessons for a couple summers in 2013-2014 (a beginner in my 30s) but felt like I would be starting from scratch now, and set a goal to become a 2.5 player by the end of my package. Well I'm happy to say that, by the end of my 20 lessons, I have surpassed that 2.5 goal and Coach Brian is the reason!"

"I had the pleasure of studying voice with Chelsie when I was 15 years old. Her ability to nurture confidence and comfort in my singing was truly remarkable. Each lesson was not just about learning the technical aspects of singing, but also about discovering my own voice and the joy of music. She was patient, encouraging, and had a knack for making every session engaging and fun. Thanks to her, my interest in music remained fervently alive and has continued to influence my life. Anyone looking to find their voice, both literally and metaphorically, would be lucky to have her as a teacher.
