I have a 5.0 DUPR rating and have coached at various locations across the valley including Picklemall, Life Time, the Picklr, and many public and private courts. PPR certified. I specialize in helping intermediate players improve with strategy and technique, but can also help beginner players get a handle on the game. I look forward to working with you on the court! At the moment, the Mountainside Fitness on Frank Lloyd Wright is the easiest way to get a an indoor court during the summer, free for members and only $10 for non members. It is on a basketball court but it works fine for practice. Otherwise, The Orchard Indoor Pickleball Private Event Venue by Talking Stick resort is also a good option for a rentable, authentic indoor court. But it does cost $40 for an hour. Outdoors, public parks are usually not busy midday. But the Oasis Community Church has outdoor courts for rent and they only ask for 10% of the lesson fee. If you have your own private, court let me know. ## Pack prices - 1 prepaid lesson: $140 total, $140 per lesson - 3 prepaid lessons: $300 total, $100 per lesson - 10 prepaid lessons: $850 total, $85 per lesson ## Where lessons happen - Phoenix, Arizona, Phoenix, Arizona - Sandpiper Park, Scottsdale, Arizona - The Orchard Indoor Pickleball Club, Scottsdale, Arizona - Mountainside Fitness Frank Lloyd Wright, Scottsdale, Arizona - Scottsdale Community College, Scottsdale, AZ - Ashler Hills Park, Scottsdale, Arizona - Victorium, Scottsdale, Arizona - Horizon Park (Tennis Court), Scottsdale, Arizona ## Reviews > Rian is one of the best local players I’ve seen and has developed a game and playing style independently of other racquet sports experience, making him a great resource for learning pickleball in its most direct, efficient style of play, where the game is played and won at the kitchen, while removing most offensive opportunities from one’s opponents. > From Alan, 5 out of 5 > Rian is a fantastic coach who offers clear and practical advice during our pickleball lessons.

He is really patient, skilled and has a fun sense of humor. He was also very generous with his time and giving us many tips.
