As a Pickleball player, certified coach with IPTPA, and now a travel advisor, I organize Carpe Dink’em Pickleball Vacation Adventures (PbVA) with a focus on Pickleball Travel With Heart. Each of these organized group trips includes a “giving exchange,” designed to connect travelers with those who live in that destination.  Pickleball Travel With Heart(TWH) intends to provide immersive experiences, cultural exchange, service-learning, and experiential travel, alongside some awesome Pickleball! 

Designed to enjoy Pickleball in a beautiful location with daily instruction and time with a Pro Coaches, enjoy an all-inclusive resort stay, meet new Pickleball friends too! Great for friends, couples, and folks within a Pickleball community who want to travel together!

Carole Dink’em Pickleball is thrilled to work with IPTPA Certified Pickleball Pro Coaches Michael Niss a.k.a Pickleball Whisperer & Daniella Niss,

Learn and understand of “WHYs” of the game of Pickleball. Why do we learn all the different mechanics of shots?

Why do we need to learn positioning?

Why is strategy a key skill?

From shot selection to mechanics, learn how to properly face all types of opponents and how to neutralize them to your advantage. From serve to paddle tap, come out with greater awareness of how to construct your game and have fun playing!
