Still, I’m optimistic about building on what I’ve learned so far and look forward to more lessons with Javier.

I take pride in introducing newcomers to the world of pickleball and relish in the opportunity to elevate the game for those looking to step up their play.

My passion for pickleball goes beyond the court. As a tournament winner with 3 years of coaching experience, I'm dedicated to helping you elevate your game and unlock your full potential, all while having a blast.
"Great lesson! Highly recommended
With a tournament win under my belt, I bring passion and expertise to every pickleball lesson. I come from a table tennis background since I was 10 years old. I not only work with adults but kids as well. If you have a pickleball addiction like me, I will help you improve any areas that you wish while having fun at the same time.
"Brian demonstrates a novel way of teaching by giving me the opportunity to identify my own mistakes based on the content that I learned from him on the spot. This exercise, along with the drills, helps me better understand the concepts that we learned today. If there is one improvement I have to state, it’s that the drop shot adjustments could be introduced better. Give them awareness that the balls can come at different height/different speeds first and then show them the techniques to handle such cases.

Coach Shayan
pickleball coach
I start by understanding the player’s current level, strengths, goals, and pain points. We run through some live hitting, serve/return, third shot drops, dinks, and transition play to assess movement and shot selection. From there, I tailor a game plan specific to the player’s needs—whether it’s footwork, shot precision, or strategy.
