Best 16 coaches for lessons near Normandy, 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.

"Oh, hey, so far, my first tennis lesson with Jerry was quite helpful. The focus on the basics felt pretty solid, and I appreciated the no-pressure vibe during the lesson. Honestly, the lesson highlighted the importance of good foundations, which I think will help me overall. I’m optimistic about how it’s going. I think trying out more lessons could really cement those fundamentals. If you’re after someone who keeps it practical and approachable, Jerry definitely is worth a shot.

With eight years of volleyball instruction, I foster skill and passion for the game. My coaching focuses on fundamentals, strategy, and building confident athletes. I believe in creating a fun and challenging environment where players thrive. I started learning how to play Volleyball in the 7th grade. Since my school didn’t have any volleyball programs for kids my age I wasn’t allowed to play until I got into high school. I was captain of varsity all my 4 years and my aces won my team 2nd place in districts. Our first ever trophy for girls Volleyball at my school. When I graduated I got asked by my high school to come back and help coach for the school. I felt a lot of gratitude about being able to help young girls who will soon be out into the real world and play for someone’s college. I promise I will teach you so many things about volleyball when you get out on the court you will be unstoppable!!!
"During the 2025 season of volleyball I’ve gotten to know coach Shaw more as a person and as a coach. She truly is one of the best coaches I’ve had over the years. She’s helped me and many other players with their progress in volleyball. Coach Shaw has connected with us as a group and I hope to have her continue to be apart of CPA’s volleyball team. - Alexia’
