With over 15 years of experience on the pickleball court, I've established myself as a seasoned player and dedicated instructor. My journey in pickleball includes notable achievements such as winning Silver in the US Open 2021 (men's 3.5 doubles, 30+ category), a testament to my skill and passion for the sport. In 2014, I played a pivotal role in launching the pickleball program in Naperville, IL, laying the foundation for a thriving pickleball community. Since then, I've been sharing my knowledge and love for pickleball through teaching, dedicating myself to helping others improve their game. Whether coaching beginners or fine-tuning the skills of more experienced players, I'm committed to fostering growth and enjoyment on the pickleball court.

Mike helped me think about many parts of my game, for example, positioning, serving, when to drive, when to dink, where to dink, etc. He also helped me to understand the ‘why’ behind making certain changes to my approach. I am now more confident in my game and am playing better each time.

Hi Mike, it was great attending your lesson, and we hope to continue some more over the Spring. We both enjoyed our time learning and drilling with you. You were an excellent instructor. Per your advice, we will also try to play as much as possible to continue to work on what we learned.

I am new to pickleball and I was somewhat anxious about the lesson, but Mike’s style is really encouraging, patient, and fun. I made many mistakes, but I learned from each one of them. I highly recommend Mike to anyone who is starting out in this sport.

Mike provided a very useful hour of play and instruction. This was my second lesson. I continued to learn the rules, practicing different types of strokes. Mike makes me laugh and we have fun. Mike challenges me during the entire lesson.

I very much enjoyed the training session and plan to take a few more beginner classes over the next few weeks/months. You are a good teacher, and I appreciated the information you provided and the way you provided it.

What you need to bringCourt shoes, not running shoes. Your favorite pickleball paddle; but I will also have extra paddles if needed. I will supply the pickleballs. Hat, sunscreen, gloves, and sweatbands (as preferred). Some type of hydration. A fun attitude. I also have a ball machine, but we may or may not choose to use this.
