" Coach Ivan is a fantastic teacher! I’m still in the learning stage and haven’t played a real game yet, but his patience and structured drills have already given me so much confidence. He breaks everything down clearly and makes practice genuinely fun. Can’t wait to take what I’ve learned onto the court — highly recommend him!
I’ve been playing pickleball for four years and coaching for three, with consistent experience competing in tournaments. I’m on the court nearly every day and stay closely connected to the local pickleball community, especially in the Arlington area. Sports have always been a core part of my life—including basketball, soccer, and table tennis—but pickleball stands out as the most engaging, strategic, and social game I’ve played. As a coach, I combine drilling with live play, working alongside my students to develop solid shot mechanics, sharpen strategy, and improve decision-making under pressure. Beyond lessons, I help players plug into the local pickleball scene so they can continue progressing through games, leagues, and community connections. If you’re ready to elevate your game, I’d be glad to work with you.

"The lesson was quite helpful in refining my pickleball skills, especially points like better positioning. Though I still need some work on my volley, I think Tj's advice makes me hopeful for future progress.
I had no racket sport background, so I started pickleball from below zero. If that’s your starting point too, I can assure you that together you can go a very promising path, as probably I had all your weaknesses and I know how to help you solve them.
"Lots of fun

Coach Paul

We will work on 3rd shot drops and drives, with games such as tug of war, 7-11, skinny singles.
Coach Hieu
pickleball coach
For the first lesson, I start by evaluating the player’s current level through warm-up rallies, dinks, volleys, serves, returns, and point play. Since they are advanced players, I focus less on basic technique and more on decision-making, consistency under pressure, shot selection, court positioning, and doubles strategy. I also ask about their goals, tournament experience, strengths, and weaknesses so I can build a training plan around their specific needs. Some drills I like to use in the first lesson include cross-court dink rallies, third-shot drop assessment, transition-zone resets, hand-speed volley exchanges, and structured point play. These help me quickly understand the player’s control, footwork, reaction speed, and tactical awareness.
