That’s a surprise and you’ll get that after the camp
I specialize in teaching pickleball to players 50 and over who are just getting started. My goal is simple: help beginners feel comfortable, confident, and excited every time they step onto the court.
When you’re new to pickleball, there’s more to learn than just how to hit the ball…
You want to know where to stand, when to move, how to serve, what grip to use, and what you’re actually supposed to do once the point starts.
You want to stop second-guessing yourself and start feeling like you belong out there.
PPR Certified Pickleball Coach
35+ tournament medals including gold in Men's Doubles and Mixed Doubles (Spain), undefeated Singles gold (France), and play at the USA Pickleball National Championships
4.5+ competitive tournament player across local, national, and international divisions
International competitive experience — tournaments in Ireland, France, Spain, and Japan
My approach is simple: teach you how to actually play, not just how to hit a ball.
We’ll make sense of the rules, get your serve and grip working, show you where to stand and when to move, and work on the things that will make you feel more confident every time you step onto the court.
But honestly, that’s only the beginning.
Because pickleball can become so much more than a game.
It can be the reason you get out of the house on a Tuesday morning. The place where you meet new friends, laugh between points, find a regular group to play with, and suddenly have a whole new part of your social life.
I’ve seen it happen again and again…and I’ve experienced it myself. Some of the best friendships I’ve made have come from pickleball.
That’s what I want for you.
Everyone here is starting from the same place
You stop feeling like the new person. Names, court and paddle all sorted before you hit a ball.
Where every clean shot starts
Your shots stop sailing long or dumping into the net because your hand was in the wrong place.
On court
Nothing here requires a sprint
You get to the ball early and balanced, without lunging, reaching or wrenching anything.
On court
The shot that makes pickleball, pickleball
You hold your own at the kitchen line instead of popping the ball up for an easy put-away.
On court
Starting every point with confidence
Your serve goes in on purpose and your return lands deep, so you never start a point apologizing.
On court
The part everyone worries about, sorted in half an hour
You call the score out loud with confidence and never have to ask what just happened.
The shot that turns defense into offense
You have an answer to the deep return instead of handing the other team an easy smash.
On court
Real games, real points, real fun
You play full points at a real pace and know you can hold your own in a proper game.
Walking out with a game you can keep
You leave with people to play with next week, not just a good afternoon behind you.
Nobody here knows what they’re doing yet
The foundation of every shot
Individual tap drill: Each player taps the ball on their own paddle to build comfort with the equipment before adding a partner
Partner tap rally: Getting a feel for the ball on your paddle with another player
Moving well matters more than moving fast
Drill: Shadow footwork — moving without the ball first, then with a partner feeding balls
The heart of pickleball
Drills:
Starting every point with confidence
Drills:
Two players, one plan
Drill: Partner positioning walk-through during live points
The best way to learn is to play
Putting it all together
The shot that turns defense into offense
Drill: Serve, return, drop — building the shot sequence one piece at a time
BREAK — 10 minutes

Hi, I’m Debbie from Oklahoma. I really enjoyed today’s drill. I wasn’t sure what to expect, but it exceeded my expectations. I got plenty of reps, learned many new aspects of the game, and added to my toolbox. It was a great experience.
– Debbie
Hi, I’m Linda. I’m from Iowa. I joined the camp today. It was great to touch on all different aspects. We’re able to drill enough that we got good at all the different aspects. So I’m ready to hit the courts.

Hi. I just finished an Obsessed
Pickleballers clinic, and I would
recommend it to anyone who wants to get better. Mark has a great way of explaining things, and he teaches in a way that anyone can get better in the four hour session.
– Camp Attendee
You’ve played a little. You know the basics. But once the game starts, you’re still not always sure where to stand, when to move, or what to do with the ball coming at you.
Why figure it all out the hard way when you can build the right foundation in just four focused hours?
We’ll sharpen your serve, shots, positioning, movement, and decision-making…while you play and get coached in real time.
By the end, you’ll stop wondering what you’re supposed to do and start playing with confidence.
And that’s when pickleball gets really fun: more games, new friends, better rallies, and a reason to look forward to getting back on the court.

Yes. I adapt every session to the pace and physical needs of the players in front of me. Safety comes first, always. You’ll be challenged appropriately and never pushed beyond what’s comfortable for your body.
