Wendy Garrido (she/her) is a 2-time USA Pickleball gold medalist, co-author of the Amazon #1 best-selling book, Smart Pickleball, and creator of the S.M.A.R.T. P.L.A.Y. Pickleball Coaching Methodology. With this ingenious approach, she teaches newbies & beginners to play at the intermediate levels in as little as 2-3 sessions!
As someone who identifies as queer, polyamorous and ever-evolving, Wendy is passionate about making the pickleball court a space where you can show up authentically, your whole self is welcome, you can be honest about your feelings, and where consensual touch, eye-contact and compassionate communication are the norm.
She has been playing pickleball for 15 years, competed in tournaments across the country and has been on the court with many Hall of Famers. She was also the driving force behind creating The Pickleball Guru coaching brand, in which she pioneered high-touch, high-ticket pickleball bootcamps and pickleball webinars with her then-husband, Prem Carnot.
She offers a variety of online trainings as well as a limited number of private coaching sessions each month.
