Hello! My name is Kristina and I am a singer-songwriter, producer based in the North County of San Diego. I have been singing for 18 years and I have experience in singing, music theory, songwriting, music production, live recording, mixing/mastering, and more! My teaching style can best be described as focusing on specific skills that you want to learn and applying that in practice.

"Amazing vocal lessons, she can explain vocal concepts very well and tailor towards my personal needs. She personalizes ways to help me warm up my voice and feel comfortable when singing. The improvements are visible even after two weeks. I will continue taking classes with her.

With over five years of experience teaching beginner and intermediate surfers, I bring a holistic and deeply personal approach to every lesson. My teaching is rooted in mindfulness, breathwork, and the belief that surfing is not just a sport—it’s a pathway to growth, presence, and self-discovery. I’m passionate about helping others find confidence in the water, connection with the ocean, and a deeper understanding of themselves through surfing. For me, the lessons we learn on the board mirror the challenges and triumphs of everyday life, and I’m honored to guide others on that journey.

"“My 10 year old had a blast in PB (San Diego) with Jake! He was up and riding the waves right away after getting a really solid lesson in surfing and mindfulness before he hit the water. Thanks you Jake!

Greetings, I’m a lifelong surfer with a passion for sharing the exhilarating world of surfing with others. With many years of teaching experience, my love for the ocean is as profound as my joy in introducing others to the thrill of surfing. In my lessons we start by unraveling the mysteries of ocean currents and wave patterns and practice some pop-ups on the beach. We then head into the water where I guide you in catching your first waves, while focusing on water safety and surf etiquette. Let’s embrace the surf together and help you ride your first waves with confidence! For those with some surfing experience I tailor the lessons to meet your goals of progressing your skills in the surf.

"Jeremy kept things calm and clear, and I saw real progress in my son. His comfort in the water grew, and we both left with smiles, as the lesson built on patience and pace.

Five years ago, during the pandemic, I began playing pickleball regularly, quickly falling in love with the sport. Over the past two years, I've immersed myself in the game, playing, drilling, and competing in tournaments up to four times per week. While unofficially coaching beginners during this time, my passion for pickleball has grown immensely, driving me to train towards becoming a senior pickleball professional. Currently rated around 4.1 on the DUPR rating scale, I actively participate in advanced tournaments, aiming to elevate my skills further on the path to achieving my professional goals. As a medical doctor, I see pickleball as embodying the values of health, happiness, and community, and I'm eager to share these aspects of the game with others.

"Very positive and encouraging teaching new skills or concepts.

My journey in golf began at age five, competing in tournaments by age nine. I proudly represented Davis Senior High School's Varsity golf team for all four years. Although I didn't make the cut for the University of Oregon's D1 golf team, my passion for the sport remained undiminished. During high school, I shared my love for golf by coaching kids at the Golf and Splash summer camp in Davis. Now, I'm committed to regular practice, striving to lower my index back to scratch.

"Great first lesson. My son really enjoyed it and appreciated everything he learned.

From an experienced school teacher to a 4.5 rated Pickleball instructor, I've transitioned my dedication for teaching into a new athletic arena. With over 3 decades of tennis playing and coaching under my belt, including a two-year stint at Mesa College, I bring a rich and diverse experience to my coaching. My journey into the dynamic world of Pickleball started a short 2 years ago, and in that short span, I've achieved a player rating of 4.0 to 4.5. Currently, I am currently a Pro-Certified instructor with the PPR (Professional Pickleball Registry) to further strengthen my Pickleball coaching credentials. Despite my newfound passion for Pickleball, I still teach tennis, integrating the best of both sports into my training approach. Together, let's work on boosting your skills and raising your game!

"My son has had lessons with Coach Fawz for over 2 years and we see huge improvements in his tennis skills, his sportsmanship, as well as his patience. Coach Fawz is always willing to work with my son on areas that he lacks. He even attended a few tournaments that my son was in and took notes to help him improve. He pays attention to all the students and work with them individually whether to better their technical, strategic, and mental abilities as a player. Great Coach!

My three decades of experience, including time as a Mini-Tour competitor, have equipped me with a deep understanding of the technical and mental aspects of golf. I'm passionate about sharing my knowledge and helping students of all levels unlock their potential and achieve their golfing goals.

"My lesson with Chris was quite helpful, especially since he provided helpful tips and video feedback. Though I need to practice consistency hitting straight and build good habits, I feel more aware of what to focus on next. It's good to have practical guidance that I can work with over time. If you're after insights to refine your game, Chris is definitely worth considering.
