I am a highly enthusiastic pickleball player with 2 years of experience in open/private play ranging from 4.0-4.5 level. Very engaging in technical instruction, ranging from foundational "Intro to Pickleball" clinics to intermediate tactical workshops for up to 4.0+ players. I just love pickleball and all the things that come with it. I have organized lots of drills and open plays within my pickleball group too.

"I was completely new to pickleball and took lessons with Anish and he has helped me not only understand the game but also gotten me to a level when I can play open plays without felling out of place at the 3.0-3.5 level. He has helped a lot with my footwork, drops and returns. I would highly recommend him if you are wanting to get to the 4.0 level.

With more than 15 years of coaching and training experience, Coach Tiffany Lockett has seen and been a part of development at all stages of the game of basketball. Coach Lockett trains and coaches for multiple Mavericks youth programs, along with AAU and league organizations. When working with Coach Lockett, you can expect to get detailed skills instruction tailored to your individual needs. Coach Lockett has worked with players of every level from beginners to Div I athletes.

"Coach Lockett has been an incredible influence on my son’s basketball journey over the past three years. When he first started at age 4, he didn’t even know how to dribble. Today, at 7, his ball-handling skills, defensive ability, and overall confidence on the court have improved tremendously. What stands out most is not just the skill development, but the confidence she has instilled in him. He plays with a level of comfort and belief in himself that wasn’t there before, and that’s a direct reflection of Coach Lockett’s patience, consistency, and dedication. We are truly grateful for the impact she has had on his growth both as a player and as a young athlete.

"I’ve only been working with Coach Nick for a short period of time but he’s already helped me become a more successful and well rounded Goalkeeper.

I like that he always is willing to answer questions and give me full detailed explanations as to why we do certain techniques.
