Hello my name is Anthony and I am a PPR Certified Pickleball Coach! I got into pickleball two years ago and took to it fast, thanks to my tennis playing and coaching background.

So whether you need to work on some specifics like your forehand, backhand, volley, serve, service return, overhead, drop shot (dink), approach shot, footwork, singles strategy or doubles strategy-I would be happy to help you with your game!

"Anthony is an excellent teacher. Really enjoyed the lesson!

Played junior competitive, pro-tournaments turned USPTA certified Coach. I have spent the past decade coaching at elite clubs in San Francisco, Miami, and NYC. I've studied the game thoroughly and still do, my teaching skills are always evolving. I see how you play and immediately know how to make you play, rally and have fun with tennis. A sport of a lifetime. I also manage junior high performance groups. I have a lot of drills and games to make your learning experience interesting and fun. If you are a high-performance player I could give you a very good practice, good pace rally, I could help you with your serve and strategy game. My high-performance competitive certification from Sanchez Vicario Academy provided me a great insight of the game, full of drills and modern concept strategies of understanding tennis latest advances. I could teach kids as well, love to make them have fun and like the sport.

"Coach Jose is a joy to learn from. He has been nothing but patient and encouraging as a beginner in tennis. He is super flexible, understanding and a joy to learn from. I've seen massive improvement in just two lessons.

I got into pickleball after a few friends dragged me along to play. Now I’m hooked and absolutely love playing. I have taught many friends and newcomers how to play and excited to teach you.

"Brendan's lesson was quite helpful, especially in refining my dink shot technique, which I’d been struggling with. He explained how foot positioning can really make a difference, though I still have some work to do. Still, I’m optimistic about applying the tips he shared and hoping to improve further soon. If you’re looking to fine-tune specific skills, it’s worth giving Brendan a try.

"I appreciated how the lesson focused on hand-eye coordination drills, and Brandon really tuned his approach to my specific needs. Though I still have some work to do, I felt like I made useful progress and left with ideas to practice on my own.

I love helping players of all levels improve their game. My sessions are all about sharpening skills, learning strategy, and having a great time on the court. Let’s step up your game and have some fun!
