Sydney Steinaker is the founder of Bassline Sports, where pickleball meets house music. By day, she’s a certified pickleball coach. By night, she’s probably DJing or planning her next pickleball rave. Learning pickleball shouldn’t feel intimidating and you can expect cringey jokes, solid playlists, and a reminder that having fun is a strategy.

"I brought my whole family out for a pickleball day with Sydney, and it could not have been a better experience. She kept the kids engaged, made sure the adults were learning at our own pace, and somehow balanced fun with real instruction the entire time. By the end of the lesson, we were all laughing, rallying, and already planning our next family pickleball outing.

I'm Katy, and over the past four summer school seasons, I've taught junior golf group lessons in camp clinics, catering to ages 3-18. Beyond that, I've developed my coaching skills through 1-on-1 instruction, working with individuals ranging from 14 to 55 years old. Back in 2017, I had the privilege of volunteering as a health & wellness advisor for a D1 Women’s Golf Team for a semester. On the competitive front, I've played against some top golfers like LPGA Rookie of the Year Jillian Hollis, Jessica Porvasnik, Clare Legaspi, Cindy Oh, and more. Before diving into our first lesson, I always start with an assessment to understand each player's personality, their mental game approach, and the unique ways in which they learn. From that foundation, our inaugural lesson will focus on observation—watching how you swing or play. After which, we circle back to mastering the fundamentals, complete with personalized drills. You get to decide the lesson's focus, be it putting, chipping, short game, or even a 9-hole playing lesson, all based on your golf aspirations. I believe in nurturing from within first. The ideal player I work with understands that a positive mindset is the foundation for a successful physical game in golf.

"Katy was great with my twin girls. She taught them grip, form and mechanics all while keeping them entertained and enthusiastic about golf. My girls loved her personality and enjoyed the lesson so much. Thank you, Katy!

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 high 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

"Second lesson with Alex Lee and the progress is real. This time he focused on creating a relaxing foundation for how to hit powerful shots using my whole body. Instead of muscling the ball, he showed me how to let my hips, legs, arms and toes work together to generate power. He gave me clear cues that clicked right away. I could apply them in the next rally and actually receive praise from him on the spot, which helped me lock in the feeling. The greatest thing about this lesson was the shift from being a tense player chasing after every ball to being a relaxed player staying on my toes, moving toward the ball early and hitting a powerful shot that looks effortless. He would identify and mark the shots that looked effortless and have me pause to feel what my whole body was doing on good contact. Now I know exactly what that connected feeling is supposed to feel like. On top of that, the lesson showed me what flow state looks like when I am relaxed. Everything makes sense, you feel totally connected with your paddle and the ball, and the game just slows down.

For over 25 years, I’ve helped golfers of all skill levels—from beginners to current PGA Tour professionals—improve their game and reach their potential. My passion for coaching comes from the life lessons golf teaches: patience, discipline, accountability, and perseverance. I believe great instruction is about more than the golf swing; it’s about building confidence, enjoying the process, and helping each player grow both on and off the course.

"Took my very first ever lesson with Andrew. He was clear and very insightful with his instructions. He gave me exactly what I was looking for in a coach. I came away with drills and techniques that I can work on at the range. Rather than just hitting balls. I’m look forward to our next lesson and improving my game.
