Emma’s fun, kind personality made learning pickleball a blast. Her instructions about technique and strategy were clear and easy to understand. She was 100% encouraging—much appreciated as a pickleball newbie! I definitely made progress thanks to her coaching.

Emma is amazing! She's very skilled as a player, she has put the time in to know the sport so I trust her. With me, she broke down the movements and techniques, watching my footwork, swing, and coached me to make changes and corrections in a kind, loving way. Then she pulled it all together with fun drills that really helped me see improvement just by the end of one lesson!
Worth every penny!

Youth players
Working with kidsI have 10+ years of professional experience in multiple settings working with kids ages 5-12. My approach working with kids is to have lots of encouragement, positive feedback, and to keep it fun! I find that kids do well with group lessons, so have them bring a friend, and let’s have some fun! **If you bring a group of 4, I can offer coached game play to give real time feedback in a game setting.
Working with teenagersI love working with teens as they are exploring and growing into their interests and hobbies. I aim to build their confidence and skillset through encouragement and constructive feedback. I find that group lessons can add a fun social component and relieve some pressure to perform for the coach. Whether one on one, or with friends— I’d love to help your teen take their pickleball skills to the next level! **If you bring a group of 4, I can offer coached game play to give real time feedback in a game setting.
What you need to bringIt’s best to bring your own paddle—that way you can get use to the weight and response of your own paddle and improve your consistency.
What I can bringI have balls and a paddle if you need one!
