Best 9 coaches for lessons near Chesterfield, MO
These coaches teach at top ranked spots and have great lesson fulfillment & student reviews.
As a former USPTA teaching professional, I bring proven coaching performance to the fast changing world of pickleball. Whether you’re picking up a paddle for the first time or looking to add a 3rd shot DRIP or backhand flick to your arsenal, I’ll guide your improvement every step of the way. I specialize in meeting each player exactly where they are, and improve or build solid fundamentals through unique stroke mechanic check points. The session pace is always comfortable, encouraging, and challenging. As a senior player, I understand the unique considerations that come with starting or improving later in life, though I genuinely enjoy working with players of every age and skill level. When you book with me, you can count on plenty of balls, paddles (if needed), and a reserved space where we can focus entirely on your improvement without distractions. During the cold months (November through March) I teach at Missouri Pickleball Club in Fenton, or Missouri Pickleball Club—Ellisville. I enjoy group lessons, so book with one, two, or three friends and lower the price per student cost. I will teach at other locations if a court can be reserved and the student handles making the reservation.
"Patient and clear instructions and good goal-setting. Would recommend to any new learners looking to get a good grasp of the basics.

Mike’s love for the sport quickly grew, and at 15, he started helping out with the children’s tennis clinics, later becoming a full time pro when he was 21. Working his way through college by giving lessons, Mike also played on the UMSL tennis team where he was awarded Freshman of the Year at GLVC Conference and was a two time first team All Conference winner. Earning a degree in Exercise Science has helped him expand his knowledge in the field of sports kinesiology to help his clients with lessons in improving their game while maintaining their frame!

"I was fortunate enough to meet Jeff at the Webster Tennis Center where he was doing some organized beginner classes. I had been struggling with progressing as an intermediate player and asked Jeff for some individual instruction. I was able to work with Jeff individually for a few sessions and saw immediate improvement in my play in the transition zone. Jeff was patient, kind, and made several excellent suggestions, that have helped me to develop more consistency in my play. Jeff also helped me to re-grip my paddle and discuss ways to weight the paddle to gain better control and to diminish stress on my elbow. After a few initial sessions, I was able to set up group lessons for several of my playing partners and the feedback has been glowingly positive. Jeff is knowledgeable and approachable in his instruction and I would absolutely recommend him for anyone looking to improve their game.
