Fit Pickleballer

19 yrs Elite Physique, now combining my pickleball passion. Teaching pickleball lessons in Santa Rosa Beach. Fit Pickleballer-Where Fitness Meets Fun!

I am beyond excited to kickstart this new journey with you all as the founder of Fit Pickleballer! 🎉 Let me tell you a bit about myself and how this all began.

🏊‍♀️Former FSU Swimmer: Swimming has been a significant part of my life, and it instilled in me a deep appreciation for fitness.

💪 Over 17 Years owning my Personal Training biz: As a seasoned personal trainer, I've had the privilege of helping numerous individuals achieve their fitness goals and lead healthier lives.

🏓 Pickleball Addict for 4 Years: Four years ago, I discovered the magic of pickleball, and there was no turning back! The thrill of the game, the camaraderie on the court, it's all simply addictive!

🔍 Bridging the Gap: In my pickleball journey, I noticed a crucial aspect missing – specific training to strengthen the muscles used in pickleball, along with mobility and lateral movement exercises to prevent injuries and build stamina.

🏋️‍♀️ Fit Pickleballer's Injury Prevention Program: This is where Fit Pickleballer comes in! I'm combining my passion for pickleball and my expertise in fitness to create an exclusive Injury Prevention program tailored for all you pickleball enthusiasts out there.

🌊 Personal and Fun Tidbits: When I'm not on the court or working on fitness programs, you can find me cherishing life's simple pleasures. I'm blessed to be married to my best friend for 25 years, and together, we share our home with three adorable cats. I spend time weekly volunteering at my favorite animal refuge, Alaqua. Living near the beach allows me to soak in the calming presence of the Gulf, especially during breathtaking sunsets, which are some of my favorite moments. And yes, I'm also a 🍷 wine lover, indulging in a glass now and then to celebrate life's victories!

🤗 I can't wait to embark on this journey with each one of you. Fit Pickleballer aims to be more than just a wellness business; it's a community where we celebrate our love for fitness, pickleball, and everything in between! 🎾 Let's strengthen those pickleball muscles, prevent injuries, and have a ton of fun together!

“Just one more game…”
Famous last words. 😂

Next thing you know it’s 10 games later,
your legs are noodles,
your eyes are half closed,

and someone says, “Run it back?”

And you say YES. Every time. 🤦🏼‍♀️

Then the next morning you wake up dazed, confused, and sore in places you forgot existed…

Totally worth it.

How many “one more games” is your record? 👇🏓

🌟✨ GLOW IN THE DARK PICKLEBALL IS BACK!

If you’ve never played pickleball under black lights with neon balls flying everywhere… you are missing OUT.

Music.
Laughing.
Glow gear.
Ridiculously fun rallies.

And yes… we’ll have co****le set up while you’re waiting your turn — because this is a PARTY vibe, not just open play.

Friday night was SOLD OUT… but 👀
💥 2 spots just opened up.

Saturday night?
💥 1 spot left.

That’s it.

Drop a 🌟 or message me and I’ll grab your spot before they’re gone!

Day 1 of Level 1 is in the books!

This group is AWESOME.

They showed up not knowing each other… a little unsure… maybe even a little uncomfortable. And that takes courage.

We learned.
We laughed.
We encouraged.
We met new friends.

And THIS message I received after class pretty much says it all…

“I have to tell you, I was nervous! I almost didn’t even come because I was just anxious about not knowing anyone or what I was doing. It was a blast… I feel I could get addicted fast 😂.”

I am SO proud of this group for showing up for themselves.

If you’ve been thinking about joining but feel nervous… that’s normal. Every single confident player once walked onto the court for the very first time.

And sometimes the best things happen on the other side of “I almost didn’t come.”

Level 1 is where friendships start and confidence grows. 💛

Who’s next? 🙌🏓

02/16/2026

I never take these for granted. 🥹

When someone says my classes are welcoming, social, and full of laughter… that’s exactly what I hope to create every single time I step on the court.

Pickleball is so much more than learning how to d**k or drive. It’s confidence. It’s connection. It’s trying something new and realizing you CAN do it.

Thank you, Andi Anderson for taking time to do a Google Review for me! I appreciate you!

If you’ve been thinking about joining a class, this is your sign.

👉 I have a few spots left for Beginner (Level 1) 6-week class that starts TONIGHT! Drop a comment or message me if you want in!

LEVEL 2 & LEVEL 3 = SOLD OUT 🎉
I don’t take that lightly.

Watching players grow in confidence, skill, strength, strategy — and friendships — over the last year has been such a gift.

This video is just a glimpse of what happens when people show up consistently, support each other, and commit to getting better.

✨ GOOD NEWS ✨
I still have a few spots left in my Beginner (Level 1) program starting Monday.

If you’ve been thinking:
“I want to learn the right way.”
“I want confidence on the court.”
“I want to meet great people and have fun.”
This is your sign.

Comment “LEVEL 1” or send me a message and I’ll send the details.

Let’s build your game the right way from the start.

Halfway through our 6-week Fit Pickleballer programs (Levels 2 & 3), and my heart is FULL.

Watching the growth over these past few weeks has been so exciting — stronger movement, better footwork, more confidence… and honestly, the camaraderie that’s building between everyone is just as powerful as the skills.

One of my favorite moments as a coach is teaching a concept, seeing someone try it, and then BOOM… they nail it. You can literally see it on their face — “Wait… that actually works!” Those light-bulb moments never get old for me.

I put together a little video from last night because these moments deserve to be celebrated. This is what happens when people commit to learning, moving better, and supporting each other along the way.

✨ Next 6-week sessions are coming soon!
I’ll be releasing the schedule shortly and will be offering Levels 1, 2, 3, and 4, starting the week of February 16.

If you’re thinking, “I really want to do this next round,” drop a comment or message me.

These programs tend to fill up quickly once dates are announced, and I’d love to help you find the right level for you.

So proud of this crew and so excited for what’s ahead. This is why I love what I do.

Day 1 of our Level 4 Six-Week Program 🏓

What a way to kick things off!
Today’s crew showed up with an open mind, ready to learn, and they crushed it. 🙌

We dialed in drop shots, worked on smart transitions to the kitchen, and focused on playing with intention—not just power. Then we rolled straight into our Friday Open Play, putting those skills to work in real time. 💪

This group brought great energy, coachability, and curiosity—and it showed on the courts. If this was just Day 1, the next six weeks are going to be 🔥.

👉 Looking for Pickleball Lessons?
I have ONE spot left in my Level 1 Beginner Program and TWO spots left in my Level 2 Advanced Beginner Program starting next week.

👉Reach out if you want in before they’re gone!

What an amazing, beautiful, warm day to play Pickleball! ☀️ I got in three hours of personal play time, and it was incredible. But the best part? As I was leaving I looked around and saw my students—past and present—on three different courts, practicing, improving, and building community together.

I left with a tired body and a full heart ❤️ Nothing lights me up more than seeing this community thrive!🎉🥰

Still Feeling All the Birthday Love!

My heart is SO full. The celebration didn’t stop after Sunday’s Alaqua event… it kept going right into my official birthday on the 8th, and wow — what an incredible day.

I woke up to breakfast in bed from my amazing hubby, surrounded by my sweet kitties (the best way to start any day!). Then I got to do one of my favorite things… play pickleball! 💗

Later John made the most delicious “early-bird” steak dinner at 3pm — and honestly, I think I’m officially a fan of the 3pm dinner club. 😂🥩

And the celebration didn’t stop there… Monday rolled right into coaching my Open Play crew, who then surprised me by joining me at Tommy Bahama to keep the birthday fun going!

I’m overwhelmed by the love — the calls, the texts, the posts, the hugs, and all the people who showed up in person. I’m truly blessed to live such a full, wonderful life surrounded by amazing humans.

Thank you ALL for making me feel so celebrated. 💕 I feel the love — and I’m carrying it with me into another fabulous year!

Unboxing time! I’m so excited (and so grateful!) — Body Helix and Flik Pickleball sent me several paddles for my clients to demo! 🙌

They’ve seen how many people I’ve been helping learn and fall in love with pickleball, and they wanted to support the growth of the sport (how awesome is that?!). 💚

These paddles are available for my students to try out during lessons and clinics, and Body Helix is even offering special discounts for those in my 6-week programs!

My personal favorite so far? The Flik F1 — I’m loving the power, control, and pop! ⚡

When it comes to paddles, it’s all about the feel. Everyone’s different, and being able to test a few out before you buy makes such a difference.

👉 If you want to come try these out and see which one feels best for you, reach out — I’d love to get you hooked up!
