"I have known Kevin through Volleyball for probably 13 years now. I have experienced him in every phase of the sport, as a coach, a partner, a referee, and a promoter. I can’t recommend him highly enough for anyone trying to improve their game from complete beginner to professional. He is constantly learning, studying, and traveling to stay current on trends in the sport and translates that education into his training sessions. Sometimes you will see group training for volleyball and there’s more standing around than actual touches. Not with Kevin. He understands that cardio and high repetitions are integral to the sport and his practices are well planned to meet that goal.

Hi, my name is Jonathan Saraga and I'm a New York City-based trumpeter, flugelhornist, composer, arranger and educator. I’ve been performing, recording, and competing around the world for over two decades, frequenting Canada, the Caribbean, Central America, Europe, Asia, the U.S. My trumpet playing appears in over 230 YouTube videos and on more than 30 albums, including many that are Grammy-nominated or Grammy-winning. My playing, compositions and musical research have also received 35 competitive recognitions from 25 national and international organizations, and my work has engaged with audiences in more than 500 cities across nearly 70 countries and close to 100 universities. My ultimate goal as an educator is to guide you toward the realization of your potential. Our learning environment will nurture a personalized process of self-discovery through my guidance, as opposed to a one-size-fits-all system of dictation for how you should or should not develop and/or perceive material. I see each interaction with a student as a sacred opportunity to help facilitate realization, regardless of magnitude, and I have dedicated myself to refining my abilities as a musician and teacher, to that end. I am confident that through our lessons, I will not only help you become better at hearing, internalizing, and expressing music, but that I will guide you in developing your own personal musical voice and direction.

I love sports, and my goal is to make pickleball simple, logical, and fun for everyone! My background is a little different than most coaches. I have an engineering background and have spent years as a sports analyst, but I am also a lifelong recreational athlete myself. I know exactly what it feels like to pick up a new sport, work though the awkward phases, and play just for the pure love of the game. Because of my multi-sport coaching and sports media background, I am really good at breaking down movements into simple, easy-to-learn steps. I don’t use confusing sports jargon-I focus on clear, friendly communication so you can see progress in your very first lesson. Beginners & Seniors: Want a gentle, zero-stress introduction?
