LifeSport Tennis Club - Racine - Caledonia, Wisconsin

Bio: I have been a certified Tennis Professional for the past 30 years. I have been playing Pickleball for more than 10 years. I became certified to teach pickleball for 2 plus years now. I have been enjoying it and helping people learn the game. I have been teaching all age groups from middle school to senior citizens. I’ve enjoyed watching my tennis students achieve many goals and now we’re doing it for Pickleball players.

Bio: I started playing recreationally in local leagues and recreation centers in the Racine area in 2019 in preparation to be an "empty-nester." Through Covid and beyond, I got the "Pickleball bug" bad and began honing my skills through regular play. I thoroughly enjoy the game - whether it is competitive play or just a social game with friends. I have been a teacher for the past 27 years, and have many years of experience in coaching youth sports. I have introduced the game to many friends and colleagues along the way, and am confident that I can teach you the game - and more importantly - impart a passion for picking up the sport that so many people now enjoy."
