Hi, I am a 20-year-old student at UCR, and over the past 2 years, I have developed a passion for pickleball. My journey with pickleball began in 2022, igniting a passion that has quickly propelled me to a DUPR rating of 4.85. In the 2 tournaments I have competed in, I remain unbeaten with a 19-0 record. Beyond tournaments, my skills have been consistently tested and proven on the courts of Maple Hill, iPickle Whittier, and iPickle LaHabra, where I perform well against players rated 4.5 and above.

"I appreciated the focus on fixing my setup and takeaway. Alan's advice really made my swing feel noticeably smoother and more consistent. It was a pretty good lesson because Alan gave me tips and things to look out for to develop an even better swing in the future. Overall, I left me feeling more confident about my iron shots. If you're looking for someone who offers helpful good insights and feedback from watching you swing, and learning the fundamentals I def recommend Alan.

"I had a really solid lesson with Steve, and the focus on my setup made a noticeable difference, which was quite helpful. Still, I’d say there’s room to fine-tune some aspects for better consistency. Though I’m optimistic about my progress, it’s definitely worth giving Steve a try if you want a grounded, practical approach.

Not to mention the wide array of good friends I have made over the years. I currently compete at the Senior Pro level and my DUPR rating is over 5.0 in both singles and doubles. I work with all levels of pickleball players and have coached students now competing at the professional level.

"After four years of playing pickleball, I finally understand what good coaching can do. My first lesson with Bill Brown was honestly transformational. I’m on the verge of tears of happiness thinking about how much progress I made in just one session. Bill is patient and has a gift for explaining body mechanics in memorable ways that immediately click. We worked on my backhand returns, drives, and dinks. I realized I had been doing many of the fundamentals incorrectly, and Bill made each correction easy to understand and apply. By the end of the lesson, I was finally starting to develop the feel for a proper backhand drive after struggling with it for four years. I only wish I had taken a lesson with Bill three or four years ago. It would have saved me years of frustration and bad habits. I look forward to my next lesson and feel more confident heading into my next tournament. I highly recommend Bill to anyone who wants to improve their game.
