We Make Pickleball EASY

Better Pickleball is an online training platform that helps pickleball players who are frustrated and confused gain confidence and proficiency by teaching a deeper understanding of the mechanics, strategies, and athleticism they need to reach their pickleball potential.

We believe that you can improve your pickleball game FAST

All it takes is for you to have an understanding of where you are, where you’re going, and the next step for you to achieve success. That’s why we focus on the Better Pickleball Success Path™. We teach you the mechanical, strategic, and athletic skills that you need to play your best.

Hi, we’re CJ and Tony

We’ve been in your shoes before. When we started playing pickleball, quality instruction was limited. Mostly a few people who played a little better than the rest of the group and were willing to offer a little free advice, and not all of it was good.

What’s wrong with most pickleball instruction is that it focuses almost exclusively on the mechanics of the shot.

It’s great to know how to hit a shot, but if you aren’t capable of properly focusing on the shot (athletic pillar) or don’t know what shot to use when (strategic pillar), you only have one part of the equation.

That’s what prompted us to become pickleball coaches and use YouTube to spread the word. But YouTube wasn’t designed for the support you need to level up. That’s why we combined forces and created Better Pickleball.

Better Pickleball is the only immersive in-person and online learning community in pickleball. It combines step-by-step teaching videos with coaching input from CJ and Tony and a community of like-minded people, all intent on improving as players. This combination of content, direction, and support continuously available 24/7 provides an unparalleled learning experience unlike anything else in the sport.

Hey there- Playing your best pickleball goes beyond mastering efficient strokes. It requires a holistic approach that involves both the mind and body. That’s why I founded the Better Pickleball YouTube channel, to help players learn the game, and explore their inner athlete. Since I started coaching more than three decades ago, one thing has remained the same: I'm committed to helping students see their potential and to do everything I can to help them realize their untapped potential. In addition to my expertise in pickleball, I am a PGA Golf Professional, PSIA Ski Instructor, and ISSA Personal Trainer. This diverse background allows me to provide comprehensive guidance to help pickleball players achieve their best performance on and off the court.
