"Sean is a very skilled coach with deep experience, and it was helpful spending a lesson with someone who has such a strong feel for the game. I’m very new to golf, and he gave me several useful drills and visual metaphors that made certain concepts click for me, especially his “paintbrush” cue for brushing the grass. You can tell a lot of this teaching comes from years of playing and collecting ways to explain the swing which made the lesson interesting and gave me a lot to practice afterwards.

"What sets my pickleball coach apart is his rare combination of elite athletic experience and analytical thinking. As a former badminton champion and an engineer, he understands how physics strategy and mechanics intersect on the court - and he explains it in a way that makes immediate sense. He quickly identifies what's happening in your stroke, clearly explains why it's happening, and shows you exactly how to fix it. He adapts his teaching to the individual player, which makes his coaching incredibly effective. I've gained both confidence and a deeper understanding of the game because of him.

Originally from Israel, my love for tennis began at age 9, leading me to train at various top academies in my home country. By my late teens, I had achieved the 2nd spot in a national tournament and competed internationally, which deepened my passion for the sport.

Now, I find immense joy in coaching and watching my students grow both in their skills and their appreciation for the game.
