Daniel J Howard Pickleball Coach

A Professional Pickleball Player and World Class Coach Is Here to Guide You Toward Your Goal

As a touring professional player who’s taught hundreds of clinics and coached clients for thousands of hours, I know how to connect with students and equip them to achieve their goals. At a Daniel J Pickleball camp we lay the groundwork with the essentials that will help you improve and enjoy the game even more, such as developing a confident mindset, teaching you to play freely and fearlessly, all while helping you implement strategic game play. We also focus on quality repetitions and skill work including, but not limited to, serves and returns, third shot drops and drives, offensive and defensive dinks, volleys, resets, and midcourt / transition area play.

Sports Mental Coaching by Daniel J Howard
"The best part of the camp was Daniel, the instructor. He was fun and enthusiastic and informative. Daniel is a great teacher. I learned a lot. I would love to do another camp."
MikeMI
"Daniel was by far the best teacher we have ever had. Daniel made a point to give each of us equal time. We would take his camp again. He was very good at explaining the why and how to perform."
KenFL

Eva WTop Senior Pro Player, MI
"Daniel J Howard brings a high-level understanding of pickleball strategy to his teaching, allowing him the ability to quickly see where a player needs improvement. Daniel uses a positive, easy-to-understand teaching style and encourages his students to have fun while learning. As a result of his understanding of the game and his enjoyable personality, I wholeheartedly recommend him for players of all levels and ages."
Jillian WID
"Each lesson pushed me further, definitely advanced my skill, and left me wishing I had coaching every week, or at the very least, once a month. He would always ask what I wanted to work on before we had a lesson. At the end of last winter, I was playing competitively both locally and nationally at 4.0."
Sharon GIN
"I was fortunate enough to not only start playing the game of pickleball with Daniel but learn how to teach the game as well. Just like the game evolves so does his teaching. He is a great instructor that does not take a cookie cutter approach to teaching. He works with the player in an individual manner and takes their personal strengths to help improve their game."
Joey FTop Pickleball Professional, FL
"Daniel Howard is a 1 percenter. He is among the best instructors I've seen in my 48 years of education and training experience. This camp was on target!"
