Hello, my name is Nicholas Taylor and I am 20 years old. With three years guiding players, I offer tailored pickleball coaching. I'm passionate about fostering skills and igniting a love for the game. Expect personalized guidance, patience, and a supportive environment. I would love to make it a fun experience for everyone.

With over 17 years of experience with singles and doubles tournament play, clinics and private coaching, I love helping players of all levels grow their game. Whether you're a total beginner or an experience player looking to sharpen your skills, unlocking potential on the court is my passion. I refine technique and strategy for pickleball players of all levels.

I've been playing pickleball since I was 8 years old, and over the years, it's become more than just a sport—it's a passion. With over 3 years of coaching experience, I love helping players of all levels grow their game, whether you're a total beginner, or an experienced player looking to sharpen your strategy and technique. Over the years I’ve won multiple 4.5-5.0 level gold medals, and coached many students to high level tournament success. I am currently Head Pro at Urban Pickleball, an indoor club in downtown Seattle, and I offer private coaching on the side. Let’s hit the courts and take your pickleball skills to the next level!

In August of 2021, Leonard embarked on a quest to elevate his pickleball skills, actively seeking a place to learn and play. It was during this journey that he crossed paths with Damon, a gentleman who extended an invitation to a community center predominantly frequented by players aged 50 and above. Initially feeling out of place, Leonard was warmly embraced by the community and taught the game that now ignites his passion. Today, almost two years later, Leonard aspires to give back by sharing his knowledge, eager to teach newcomers and enable them to experience the joy of one of the world's fastest-growing sports.
