Shaan is a top-tier coach for anyone serious about improving their pickleball or basketball game. His methods are incredibly effective, and he has a knack for making complex skills seem simple. I've seen a noticeable improvement in my footwork and shot placement in pickleball, thanks to his personalized drills. His 40 years of playing basketball give him an unmatched understanding of athletic movement and strategy that directly translates to exceptional coaching.

If you're looking for a coach who genuinely cares about your improvement and makes learning fun, Shaan is your person. I'm relatively new to pickleball, and he's made the learning curve so enjoyable. He's patient, encouraging, and has a fantastic way of explaining strategies. It's clear his 40 years on the basketball court have honed his ability to see the game and guide players effectively. Every session with Shaan is a highlight – I always leave feeling more confident and skilled.

Whether you're a beginner or looking to refine advanced techniques, Shaan creates a fun, motivating, and incredibly effective learning experience. He's truly dedicated to helping you succeed."

Mr Shaan is an incredible coach! His passion for both pickleball and basketball truly shines through. I've been playing pickleball for a while, but Shaan's guidance in just a few sessions has already elevated my game significantly. He breaks down complex techniques into easy-to-understand steps, and his ability to tailor lessons to my specific needs made all the difference. Plus, his deep knowledge from 40 years of basketball experience adds a unique perspective to his coaching. Highly recommend!"

As an experienced player, I'm always looking for that extra edge, and Shaan provided exactly that. His two years of dedicated pickleball coaching, combined with his extensive basketball background, offer a unique and insightful approach. He quickly identified areas for improvement in my pickleball game that I hadn't even considered. Shaan creates a dynamic and engaging environment where you feel challenged but also completely supported. He's a true professional.
