I’m a lifelong guitarist who’s learned the economics of the fretboard—how to say more with less. Over decades of performance, arranging, and teaching, I’ve come to see the guitar not as a maze of shapes but as a unified field of melody, harmony, and movement. My lessons are for intermediate players who want to stop memorizing and start understanding: to connect patterns, find melodic pathways, and unlock their own voice.

"Amazing teacher, so kind and patient. I was extremely nervous and he thought me a lot on the first day can’t wait for more lessons. Highly recommend

I help beginners and improving players build clean fundamentals, better footwork, and real confidence on court. My lessons are clear, encouraging, and structured so you improve fast without feeling overwhelmed. I’m a medical student focused on sports medicine. I lost 80 pounds of fat by playing tennis and built real athleticism along the way. I coach beginners to intermediates with a biomechanics-first approach: I’m all about footwork, placement and positioning, timing, and joint-friendly power. First lesson includes a quick assessment, 1 to 2 key fixes, and a drill plan for your next solo hit.

"I struggled with my serve for the longest time. That changed finally when I got lessons from Arjan. He analyed how I currently hit so as to maximally help improve my serve and return without overcomplicating. I could finally toss the ball for a clean serve after many many drills! Highly recommended

Golf should be challenging, rewarding, and enjoyable. With 20+ years of experience, I help golfers build reliable fundamentals, better ball striking, consistency, and confidence. I coach beginners, juniors, families, veterans, returning players, and golfers who have struggled with traditional instruction. Lessons are personalized, patient, and practical, covering swing mechanics, short game, putting, course management, practice habits, and the mental side of golf.

"Coach Fahad is incredible with young golfers! My kid wanted to try a new sport over the summer, but was pretty intimidated about playing on a real course. We did a 10-lesson package over three months, and Fahad was fantastic. He gave great drills to practice between sessions and made sure to teach proper course etiquette and pace of play. Now my kid comfortably plays rounds with a group of friends their own age and absolutely loves the game. We’ll definitely be sticking with Coach Fahad—highly recommended!
