Sydney Steinaker is the founder of Bassline Sports, where pickleball meets house music. By day, she’s a certified pickleball coach. By night, she’s probably DJing or planning her next pickleball rave. Learning pickleball shouldn’t feel intimidating and you can expect cringey jokes, solid playlists, and a reminder that having fun is a strategy.

"I brought my whole family out for a pickleball day with Sydney, and it could not have been a better experience. She kept the kids engaged, made sure the adults were learning at our own pace, and somehow balanced fun with real instruction the entire time. By the end of the lesson, we were all laughing, rallying, and already planning our next family pickleball outing.

With 15 years of riding the waves under my belt, surfing isn't just a sport for me—it's a way of life. For the past two years, I've had the privilege of passing on my passion as a surf instructor, guiding others to find their balance and embrace the ocean's rhythm. From catching that first wave to mastering advanced techniques, I'm here to share the stoke and help you unlock the magic of surfing. Let's paddle out and ride the waves together!

For over 30 years, I've shared my love for tennis with students from beginners to intermediate levels with proven techniques with a personalized approach, helping you achieve your goals while enjoying the game. I am committed to developing well-rounded players. Also, having 2degrees in education from a major university, (where I played varsity tennis for two years) has helped me greatly in shortening a players learning curve. AND…I make learning fun! If you wanna try me out for a first lesson I will discount it to only 10.00 for a 1/2 hour lesson! so you can see my methods of teaching and the fun we can have together

"My son Jason, who is 12, first started playing tennis at eight years of age. In Las Vegas, Nevada for several years and had several tennis coaches. We recently moved to San Juan Capistrano California and wanted to continue his Tennis Lessons. I conducted a Google search and found Coach Roger over the years. We have had several TENNIS coaches for our son. This is the first time we have ever come across such an amazing tennis coach. Roger is patient, kind genuine the entire family took a liking to Roger. My son for the first time feels very comfortable with his tennis coach who truly inspires him and at the same time makes him feel very comfortable. He is an amazing patient tennis coach Jeremy. San Juan Capistrano, California.

"Hi Derek! He did really good. He got two walks and 1 triple. He did great today ! Home run and a double .

I’ve been playing pickleball for 6+ years with a strong tennis background, and what started as a fun hobby quickly became something I really care about. I play at a high level and love helping others to play stronger, move better, feel more confidant, and actually enjoy the game on a deeper level. To me, improving in pickleball is more than just skill, it’s freedom. The freedom to move, compete, express yourself, and have a whole lot of fun. My only goal is to help you get it

"Second lesson with Alex Lee and the progress is real. This time he focused on creating a relaxing foundation for how to hit powerful shots using my whole body. Instead of muscling the ball, he showed me how to let my hips, legs, arms and toes work together to generate power. He gave me clear cues that clicked right away. I could apply them in the next rally and actually receive praise from him on the spot, which helped me lock in the feeling. The greatest thing about this lesson was the shift from being a tense player chasing after every ball to being a relaxed player staying on my toes, moving toward the ball early and hitting a powerful shot that looks effortless. He would identify and mark the shots that looked effortless and have me pause to feel what my whole body was doing on good contact. Now I know exactly what that connected feeling is supposed to feel like. On top of that, the lesson showed me what flow state looks like when I am relaxed. Everything makes sense, you feel totally connected with your paddle and the ball, and the game just slows down.
