Hi, I am Coach Mark Ianni — Head Coach of Obsessed Pickleballers and Your Guide To Building The Right Pickleball Foundation

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.

I’m the head coach of Obsessed Pickleballers, the author of “The Perfect Guide to Acing Pickleball,” with over 500 five-star reviews, and a dedicated pickleball coach with nearly a decade of experience helping players at every level discover what they’re truly capable of on the court.

My Credentials:

Head Coach of Obsessed Pickleballers — operating camps across 40+ cities and 10+ states

Author of "The Perfect Guide to Acing Pickleball" — 500+ five-star reviews from players just like you

PPR Certified Instructor — official education partner of USA Pickleball

Nearly a decade of pickleball coaching experience at all skill levels

Deep expertise in smart play strategies that win without exhausting you

Known for a patient, intelligent, and community-first coaching approach

Hosts weekly Thursday virtual coaching sessions for the Obsessed Pickleballers community

Produces YouTube instructional content designed for players who want to understand the game, not just play it

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.

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.

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.

Just bring your paddle, court shoes, athletic wear, protective eyewear (optional), water, some snacks, and a towel.
