Janette Gray profile
About Janette

Five years ago, during the pandemic, I began playing pickleball regularly, quickly falling in love with the sport. Over the past two years, I've immersed myself in the game, playing, drilling, and competing in tournaments up to four times per week. While unofficially coaching beginners during this time, my passion for pickleball has grown immensely, driving me to train towards becoming a senior pickleball professional. Currently rated around 4.1 on the DUPR rating scale, I actively participate in advanced tournaments, aiming to elevate my skills further on the path to achieving my professional goals. As a medical doctor, I see pickleball as embodying the values of health, happiness, and community, and I'm eager to share these aspects of the game with others.

What students say...

"The lesson with Janette was quite informative and helpful, and she explains things really well. She’s very positive and supportive, Next session i hope to work on shot placement and more practice on my serve. She is a Great Coach!

I've had the pleasure of taking tennis lessons under the guidance of Tim, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. His encouraging attitude and clear, easy-to-understand demonstrations have significantly contributed to my progress and enjoyment of the sport. What stands out the most is his patience and his tailored approach to teaching. He designs each class based on our progress, making sure that we are always moving forward at a pace that feels comfortable and yet challenging. This approach has been incredibly beneficial for me as a beginner, allowing me to build confidence and improve my skills in a supportive environment.

The lesson with Alvin really hit the mark, especially since we focused on improving my serve accuracy and game strategy. There was a clear emphasis on positioning, which I hadn't considered deeply before. I still need to work on my volleys, but I left feeling quite encouraged to practice those spots. Still, I think future lessons could benefit from more drills targeting footwork. Overall, I’d say Alvin has a calm, effective teaching style that makes learning feel natural. Definitely worth trying out if you're aiming to sharpen your pickleball skills.

The lesson with Chris was quite helpful. I appreciated him teaching me different techniques and showing me some drills to practice, though I think more practice might really enhance my skills. Still, the lesson highlighted the importance of refining my serve, and I left feeling more in control of the ball. I’d say Chris’s approach, combining instruction with practical tips, makes it a solid experience for anyone looking to improve their game. If you’re into pickleball and want to build a good foundation, definitely consider trying him out.

The lesson had a really good ratio of application versus instruction, which I found quite helpful. I look forward to more consistent return serve placement and skill development under Alvin’s coaching…his approach is quite effective. I’m optimistic about improving further and have asked for 2 lessons a week for up to 4 weeks and see where I am at that point. Alvin is also encouraging and light hearted. Great tweak and refine! Thank you Alvin!

What a solid start. I appreciated the clear basics from grip to forehand, backhand, footwork, and position on the court, and serves, with plenty to work before our next lesson.

Timothy helped me lock in that smooth “brush” feel we chased- I’m noticing WAY better contact, with room to refine consistency. Can’t wait for the next one!
