“Sean Nowell is a music instructor with great integrity, enthusiasm and vision. His passion for both music and teaching are apparent in every lesson. As non-musicians, we were most impressed with the time and care he took with our son explaining how to get the best out of his instrument including care and maintenance. Most importantly, Sean provided the necessary inspiration to help our son move beyond seeing himself as just playing in a school band to a confident musician who looks forward to pursuing a career in music.”Patty M., parent · shared by Sean
About SeanI've been teaching private music lessons for 30 years. My goal is to have my students learn more about who they are as an individual through a methodical and interactive study that involves the deep roots of foundational theory combined with improvisational interactions and applications to create a wholistic knowledge of 3 dimensional self expression.

“His experience and reading of the game really helps me and shows me areas I need to improve in. And the feedback he gives during drills is extremely helpful because I thought the way I’ve been doing something for the longest has been the only way but he showed me other ways that I can approach it. His experience and feedback comes a long way.”Mamadou, student · shared by EdgarAbout EdgarHi my name is Edgar, 22 years old. Been playing for 15 years and still playing in the APSL. Started at FC Harlem by the age of 8 until 15. Trained under Chelsea coaches. Having my own personal goalkeeping coach, training under him for 2 years. Later went on to play at Riverdale Kingsbridge Academy MS/HS. After high school went to Bronx Community College (BCC) playing with them for 1 year until I switched over to a APSL club called Kid Super Samba FC. Been playing semi-professionally with them for 4 years.

About ChrisI help Pickleball players in Briarcliff Manor, New York improve their technique, make smarter decisions, and play with more confidence. Whether you are new to Pickleball, building your fundamentals, or pursuing stronger competitive play, I create personalized lessons that make progress purposeful and enjoyable.
With six years of playing experience, I tailor each session to your goals, experience, and learning style.

I explain why changes work, demonstrate clearly, and use purposeful drills to help you improve efficiently. My goal is not simply to tell you what to do, but to help you understand your game and become a smarter, more complete player.
