I recently earned my Professional Golf Association apprentice status here at Stanford and am working towards becoming a PGA Class A Teaching Professional.

Hi! During my high school and college years, I played varsity tennis and even earned an invitation to the Junior Davis Cup tryouts. I then channeled my passion for the sport into coaching, leading as a head tennis coach in high school. These days, I've immersed myself in coaching pickleball, drawing from my rich tennis background to nurture and elevate players in this exciting game. Recently won the Gold Medal 🏅in the Mixed Doubles at the Tri-Valley Pickle Ball Championships.

Embarking on a journey into the realm of dance five years ago, I am fortunate to be experienced in many kinds of dance including ballroom, salsa, and Afro-Cuban dance. The profound impact of body movement as both a hobby and a healing tool immediately captivated me. Recognizing its transformative power, I delved deeper into this passion, immersing myself in Afro-Cuban dance and salsa. My mission is to impart the fundamental body movements inspired by African and Latin dancing, empowering individuals to embrace their bodies and find comfort in movement. In my eyes, body movement is a universal healer, and I'm dedicated to guiding and opening up hearts and bodies through the joy of dance.

Experienced Golf Coach and player, I work in the golf industry and I like to collect knowledge from other coaches, players, and professionals to pass on to my clients. Everyone is different, so I focus on the simple mechanics. All of my students have improved a lot! Thank you everyone for your support! My average client take around 5-10 lessons and after that they usually don’t need many more unless they are a beginner. I can help take 20-30 shots off your score! I work on the simple mechanics and simple changes anyone can make to the golf swing
"The lesson with Christopher was quite helpful, especially since he provided some pointers that I plan to work on, like improving my irons and wood shots. Though I still need more practice in those areas, I feel like I have a clearer idea of what to focus on. I guess I’ll just keep at it, though. Still, I think a little more practice will help me see real progress. If you’re looking to tighten up certain aspects of your game, Christopher’s guidance might be worth trying.

"Eric and I made such great progress within our first lesson together. His teaching style really clicked with my learning abilities and that was very helpful with the drills we were doing. I left with enough information and ideas on what I can work on during my own drilling sessions to help me move forward with this pickleball journey. He is patient, super knowledgeable, and gives great instant feedback.
