"What a fun and friendly guy! And very knowledgeable about the game, the strategy, the techniques, and the equipment! After just 2 lessons, I felt Zak had imparted a huge amount of knowledge to my boyfriend and I, and immediately improved our skills. I would definitely recommend him!
I started playing pickleball in 2014 and have been successful in local tournament play events. Due to my early experience, I started the pickleball program at my local tennis club in Scripps Ranch as it increased from 2 to 4 to 8 pickleball courts. From there, with the help of the tennis pro, we started with large groups (30 -40 players) for pickleball training sessions years ago until interrupted by the Covid pandemic. We were able to start training again in 2023 with our current expanded player base. For the last few years, I have continued with private training sessions at local recreation areas, parks and at résidences.
"Great lesson!
Five years ago, during the pandemic, I began playing pickleball regularly, quickly falling in love with the sport. Over the past two years, I've immersed myself in the game, playing, drilling, and competing in tournaments up to four times per week. While unofficially coaching beginners during this time, my passion for pickleball has grown immensely, driving me to train towards becoming a senior pickleball professional. Currently rated around 4.1 on the DUPR rating scale, I actively participate in advanced tournaments, aiming to elevate my skills further on the path to achieving my professional goals. As a medical doctor, I see pickleball as embodying the values of health, happiness, and community, and I'm eager to share these aspects of the game with others.
"Very positive and encouraging teaching new skills or concepts.
I started playing pickleball 3 years ago and I play almost every day in advanced level open play and ladder sessions. I’ve learned a lot about what it takes to go from not knowing how to play to being a solid pickup player who can play in advanced level games. I still know exactly what it’s like to be a brand new beginner and trying to figure out the game especially all the rules. My coaching style is easygoing and I try to keep the lessons light hearted so everyone feels welcome and comfortable. I like to use a mix of drills and gameplay with real time instruction and feedback during my lessons. A group of 3 or 4 students makes for a great class because I can play a doubles game with you while teaching you how the game works. I can also advise you on equipment, where to play, what apps to download to find games and leagues, etc. Feel free to reach out with any questions!
"Michael was a great coach for our 2nd time playing pickle ball. His explanations were thorough and he patiently worked through the basics with us. Recommend for anyone starting out
For the past 3 1/2 years, I've been fully immersed in Pickleball, dedicating myself to the sport with unwavering passion and enthusiasm. Playing consistently 5 to 6 days a week, and sometimes squeezing in two sessions a day, Pickleball has evolved from a mere pastime into a lifestyle for me. Beyond the physical activity, the camaraderie, the new friendships forged, and the thrill of competition truly make it special. Pickleball isn't just a game; it's a mental challenge that keeps me engaged and constantly striving for improvement. The strategic thinking it demands adds an exciting dimension to each match, offering endless opportunities for growth and mastery. But what truly sets Pickleball apart is the sense of community it fosters. I've formed countless friendships through this sport and enjoy introducing others to its joys. As an advocate for Pickleball, I'm passionate about sharing its wonders with people of all ages. From young enthusiasts to seasoned seniors, Pickleball offers something for everyone. It's more than just a game; it's a lifelong journey of fun, fitness, and friendship, and I'm grateful to be a part of it.
"Lisa is an excellent instructor! I had never played pickleball before this month and now I feel like I have a firm grasp on the fundamentals.
Hi there, I’m a former varsity tennis player and have shifted to playing pickleball over the years!

My main goals are to be patient and encouraging while we get you ready to beat your friends or podium at a tournament :)
