💰$50 weekly lessons

My love for racquet sports started early with tennis — I even played on my high school’s JV team! Being active and outdoorsy has always been a big part of who I am, which probably stems from growing up in the stunning landscapes of Colorado. After moving to Austin 12 years ago, I stumbled upon pickleball about 3 years back, and it's been a total game-changer! The fast-paced action, the social atmosphere, and the opportunity to constantly improve have made it my favorite way to stay active, challenge myself and have fun.

Saher is an amazing coach! She makes you feel so welcomed and comfortable. I always thought pickleball was too hard to learn but she really simplified and taught me the rules real-time. I highly recommend her if you want to improve your skills or learn a new sport!!

I just started pickleball and she really helped me get my serves together. She also taught me the rules of the games which can sometimes be tough to understand. Glad she was able to make time.

Youth players

Working with kidsI love working with kids. Want to make the game fun for them in a low stress, low stakes environment. Want to give them an environment they can enjoy playing in and slowly learning and up-leveling naturally.

Working with teenagersI have a lot of patience and experience in working with kids and teenagers. I initially assess the level they are at and adjust my approach accordingly.

What you need to bringPlease bring the paddle you are used to playing with for best results and extra balls if you have any (optional).

What I can bringI can provide a paddle and a couple of balls for the lesson.
