Learn pickleball! I'm a full time professor, and I've played pickleball for over 7 years.. I taught so many of our friends how to play that my wife said, you should give lessons.. So I became a certified instructor through the first pickleball organization, The International Pickleball Teaching Professional Association (IPTPA). I offer personalized instruction, built upon a foundation of effective strategies and skillful technique. Its super fun so you should join us!

"Today’s lesson with Jamie was quite helpful, especially focusing on solving problems with my backhand. Although I still need to see improvements on the skills he taught me, I feel more confident about my overall game now. Still, there's room to grow, I suppose consistent practice will make the difference.

I am a high-level 4.4-rated pickleball player with strong skills in both doubles and singles. My background as a college lacrosse athlete and coach has given me a solid foundation in teaching and strategy, which I now bring to the pickleball court.

I’ve already been teaching through referrals and requests from friends, and I look forward to helping more players develop their skills and love for pickleball!

"Oh, I’d say Christopher’s lesson was quite helpful, especially since we finished practicing specific pickleball drills and shots. Still, I’m looking forward to getting better at the basics and learning more of the game strategy. Though I felt it was a good step forward, I think one more lesson would really help me apply everything more confidently on the court. If you're considering trying a lesson, Christopher's approach is definitely worth a shot.

Hi, my name is Stephen. I’m a 5.0 singles and doubles Pickleball player. I’m a competitive tournament player that plans to start playing the pro circuit soon, but also have a passion for coaching and helping others. My coaching style is a combination of encouraging, fun, while also trying to get the best out of my students. Before pickleball I was a 2-sport collegiate athlete, and have coached numerous athletes. Furthermore, as a competitive player myself, I am constantly studying, learning, and seeking to improve as a player and a coach. I am continuously learning, and stay up to date with the latest strategies, techniques, and developments in the game. Pickleball is constantly evolving, and is about situational awareness and adaptability. I aim to help my students apply these concepts as well.

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
