I’ve been playing pickleball for 6+ years with a strong tennis background, and what started as a fun hobby quickly became something I really care about. I play at a 4.5 level and love helping others to play stronger, move better, feel more confidant, and actually enjoy the game on a deeper level. To me, improving in pickleball is more than just skill, it’s freedom. The freedom to move, compete, express yourself, and have a whole lot of fun. My only goal is to help you get it
"First lesson with Alex. He came on time with his equipment and was easy to set up the lessons with. Friendly and knowledgeable with the love for the pickleball game. I was preparing for a future tournament so this lesson consists of a mix of everything, from different types of serves, to dinking, and returns. He evaluated my fundamentals and helped support my foundation and polished areas that I had issues being consistent with. Easy to work with and has an eye on picking up little details that I missed. Looking forward to future lessons and will review again on the progress.

"Pranit is a great coach for beginners. I came into pickleball with no prior racquet sport experience and was quite nervous to start, but he was very welcoming and made the process fun. He focuses on the fundamentals a lot, which has helped me understand the game and why certain strategies work. To be honest, I’m not too into sports and didn’t expect much from pickleball, but his instruction has made me enjoy it and look forward to playing every week. I eventually want to learn more intermediate techniques from him too. I’d highly recommend taking lessons with Pranit.

Fueled from a life long passion for racquet sports including playing for UC Irvine tennis 1986-1990, I became a dedicated pickleball enthusiast in January 2021. I started at over 190 lbs and currently am at 160 lbs and in the best shape I have been for the last 20+ years, so I know the benefits of pickleball. Not to mention the wide array of good friends I have made over the years. I currently compete at the Senior Pro level and my DUPR rating is over 5.0 in both singles and doubles. I work with all levels of pickleball players and have coached students now competing at the professional level. I am an IPTPA certified instructor and my teaching philosophy is not just about how to swing the paddle, but teaching the art of pickleball - strategy, spins, footwork, and how to get the most out of your game.
