Coach Travis taught me serving skills and boy that was helpful at the court today playing a game. I was calm and not under pressure at all. He has this calming energy that helps me stay focused. Btw, we won the game!

After just one lesson from Travis, I moved from level three to level four player. I beat my husband 4 straight games the next day and got called out at my club for my “new moves”. Travis has a calm and patient demeanor, keen awareness of what I needed to do to improve and a tremendous knowledge and appreciation of Pickleball. Hire Travis to improve your game.

Beginner training plan
Your first lessonDiscuss their goals. Learn about what brought them to pickleball. Why they like it enough to want to improve their game. Learn about relevant athletic experience. Injury history and any relevant physical limitations. Assess movement. Hit every shot-drop serve to backhand overhead or to as appropriate to their level.
Lesson 2-3The high-level, seasonal goals. High-level plan to address the lowest-hanging fruit skills that improve their social games now. Start to explain big concepts like the no volley zone/kitchen and how that impacts shot selection. Subsequent lessons are all based upon a minimum shot repertoire that when executed well results in winning pickleball.
Youth players
Working with kidsIf kids are under 8, it’s about engagement and having fun. Lots of encouragement, making each shot part of a noncompetitive game. Ages 8-13 is when skills training is ideal. Can be the most intensive age where a child wants to develop their game and needs lots of repetition with hitting partners of similar ability.
Working with teenagersI’ve never worked with teenager pickleball players, but ideally I would try to book groups. Teenagers could pick up the rules and enjoy the social aspects of doubles within the first lesson.
What you need to bringWater, court shoes, sunglasses and/or hat, and a paddle.
What I can bringA pop-up net that allows more flexibility when teaching and drilling games. Stevenson Park is my default location, contact me to arrange a pop up location near you
