About Karamat

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. Whether you are a junior picking up a racket for the first time or an adult looking to refine your competitive edge, my coaching focuses on technical precision, strategic movement, and game-day mental toughness.

What students say...

"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.

About Jose

When I started playing pickleball three years ago, I had not idea it would become such a big part of my life! I am passionate about sharing my love for the game and find it incredibly rewarding to see my students learn and improve. My beginner students can expect a fun learning environment that uses patience and humor as we learn the golden standards in techniques and solid fundamentals. More advanced students, get ready to sharpen those skills through drills and strategy. Let's pickle!

Dinking and the soft game

Volleys, putaways, and net play

Speed up the game, defend the body, and finish points at the net. Waukegan coaches sharpen your hands, reaction time, and shot selection up front.
