I am an IPTPA Certified Level 1 Instructor with three formal years of experience teaching pickleball. I’ve played Pickleball since 2018 with 30 years of a tennis background. I have dedicated myself to sharing my passion for the sport of Pickleball with others and helping players improve their skills on the court. Through my teaching, I hope to instill confidence, sportsmanship, and a love for the game in all my students. I am committed to continuing my own education and growth as an instructor to provide the best possible experience for those I teach.
"Jorja is a very knowledgeable coach! She is very patient and explains everything so well, making it easier to grasp the basics.



Jean is passionate about pickleball and loves coaching beginning and intermediate players. She has been playing pickleball for 8 years and coaching for 3 years. Jean is not a life long athlete, rather started playing racquetball in her 40’s when she lived in New Hampshire. When she and her husband, Dante, retired in 2018 they moved to Lillian, AL. Since racquetball was not as prevalent Jean started playing tennis in Gulf Shores, AL. She was introduced to pickleball at a local church gym and played both tennis and pickleball for a few years. Then she switched full time to pickleball. She has never regretted that decision and loves everything about the sport! Certifications include: RPO Level 1, IPTPA Level 1 and Children/Youth, Accredited Coach through the Pickleball System, USA Pickleball Ambassador, DUPR Club Facilitator in Lillian, AL Other interests: Biking, traveling, mahjong. Favorite coaching: Novice and beginner players, clinics, intermediate players with specific shots. Loves doing events such as ladder leagues, Queen and King of the Court. Favorite aspects of pickleball: Community! I am described as the “Connector” the one that everyone calls when they need help finding a partner, a place to play, info on levels, etc… Hope to see you on the courts! 😀
