"I’ve had an amazing experience training with Tijana! She is incredibly knowledgeable, always patient, and brings such a positive and friendly energy to every session. Her ability to explain techniques clearly and tailor the lessons to my level made a big difference in my progress. Beyond being a great coach, she’s truly an excellent professional. Highly recommend her to anyone looking to improve their game in a supportive and fun environment!

Passionate about pickleball, I've dedicated the past five years to honing my skills on the court and sharing my love for the game with others.

Drawing upon my background as a teacher and youth sports coach, I bring a unique blend of expertise and enthusiasm to the pickleball court. Whether you're a beginner eager to learn the basics or a seasoned player looking to fine-tune specific aspects of your game, I'm here to help you reach your goals and unleash your full potential on the court.

I started playing tennis at 11 years old. Among this sport also ping pong was my favorite. I met Pickleball 4 years ago and it seemed a natural combination between the two. Just easier to mastering. I started my path taking private lessons and advanced camps and three years ago i achieved the first PPR Level I Professional Coach Certification. Recently I achieved the Level II from PPR and then I joined IPTPA obtaining the Level I & II Professional Coach Certification. I am a VAIR Rater, a new, innovative, company which has developed an excellent system to rate players for the players. www.vairified.com I am a very patient teacher and a good listener. I enjoy to see my students to learn and to improve their skills.

"Excellent first session. Silvano focused on my goals and immediately identified my issues. The drills he chose pushed me to improve on my weaknesses.
