"When my daughter Ally was 8 years old, she expressed interest in playing sports. We put her on MYAA teams but noticed she was getting very hard on herself while practicing and playing with the other girls. We found Nikki for private lessons and so much changed.

About Me - I’m Danielle, a pickleball coach based in Oregon City. Pickleball, for me, is about the joy of moving, learning, and having fun together. I teach locally outdoors and in Troutdale for indoor lessons. Approach - I’ve spent six years creating a supportive, low-pressure learning space where players can grow at their own pace.
