I’m Kevin Bautista, a PPR Certified Coach with over 15 years of experience playing various racquet sports. I work with players of all ages and skill levels, and I love teaching the strategic aspects of the game. My goal is to help you develop a great mind for the game and grow your skills over time, whether you’re just starting out or looking to take your play to the next level. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me on the courts!
"Taking a lesson from Kevin was great! I had already taken lessons from other coaches, but I was not quite getting closer to my goal of learning dinking like I wanted to. Kevin was immediately able to see what I could improve on, and was able to help me properly dink within one lesson. I plan on taking more lessons for other parts of my game that get a bit glossed over and rushed by other coaches. He really knows his stuff; highly recommended!

Hi, I’m Demian Black, and I’ve been playing pickleball for a little over four years—long enough to get hooked, level up, and earn two gold medals, a silver, and a bronze along the way! I started coaching because I love helping others experience the excitement, challenge, and community that makes this sport so special. Whether you want to learn the basics, master strategy, or get tournament-ready, I focus on making each session fun, supportive, and tailored to your goals. If you’re ready to improve your game while enjoying every minute on the court, I’d love to work with you!

I started playing almost 5 years ago and wow what an incredible sport for MANY reasons. Social, personal growth, community, refinement of skills personally and on the court, exercise and connections. I have learned so much about myself through playing pickleball. And I have learned the skill and strategy over the years. I have faced my fears in playing up past my level and it’s been amazing. I love being active and getting people to have fun and not worry too much about the score or who wins. My nickname is KK and I have energy all day long and I love people and teaching them a new skill or advancing in the one they already know. Life is amazing but pickleball makes it even more so. Oh the people I’ve met and the friends I have developed. I’m sold out to this sport and can’t wait to reach and teach more people of ALL ages and ability!!
"Kaela has been a great instructor!!! We learned a lot and she always has a very positive can do attitude. We would highly recommend and will be signing up again whenever need to work on something new. Thanks Kaela!
