Expert Squash & Pickleball Instruction With over 16 years of experience in professional squash and 4 years as a certified pickleball instructor, I provide high-performance training tailored to every level of play.

"I have been working with the FXW School for the past two years to introduce and develop pickleball for their junior players. We consistently see a fantastic turnout, with up to 20 kids participating per session. While the students generally start as beginners, many are incredibly fast learners. We focus on blending skill-building with fun games, and after just a few sessions each term, the players successfully transition into competitive match play. It continues to be a highly successful program, and I look forward to getting them back on the court for the next session.
