"Tanav helped me transition from a tennis player into a pickleball player. He’s super supportive, super humble, and super skilled at introducing new skills. He was very observant and instructed me on what adjustments I needed to make. He’s very adapt and encouraging, and I improved a lot even after a single lesson.
