Lillian Recreational Park

Bio: 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.

Bio: I have been playing pickleball for five years and coaching for two years. I enjoy coaching, beginner, novice, and intermediate players. Pickleball is a great sport and it is wonderful seeing new players get involved in the sport. The novice player has grasped the fundamentals and now wants to improve. I really enjoy helping them grow and improve. The immediate players are often interested in competing in tournaments. I’ve played in many tournaments and can help them with their game and also the mental part of competing. I am a USA Pickleball Ambassador with the main goal of spreading the sport of pickleball to new players of all ages. My coaching style is best described as giving support and guidance in a safe, yet fun environment where each student feels comfortable and is able to learn new skills. I use lesson plans and provide handouts after each session and encourage students to do homework to continue working on their class objectives With over two years of pickleball instruction, I cultivate a fun, yet focused learning environment. My passion is helping students learn and improve their game. I hope to meet with you soon so we can start on your pickleball journey with me!
