Private Lessons & Coaches in Little Ferry, NJ

I run six pickleball sessions a week for my local church to raise money, combining my love for the game with a commitment to community service. My journey with paddle sports began as a kid, but it was in 2015, introduced to pickleball by my dad, that I truly found my passion. I fell in love with the game not only for its excitement but also for the positive social aspects it brings. Pickleball has a unique way of building connections and fostering a supportive community, and I strive to share that experience with others. Whether you're a newcomer or looking to improve your skills, I'm here to help you enjoy the game and be part of the amazing pickleball community.

"Honestly, Bob’s lesson was quite helpful, especially the focus on improving my serve accuracy. Though I still need to work on consistency, I can see the progress and look forward to refining my technique further. If you’re looking to get better at pickleball, it’s worth trying a lesson with him.

I am a pickleball player, former health and fitness coach, and currently working in a private practice as an associate clinical mental health therapist. Pickleball is a sport I value for its creativity, physical challenge, and its ability to both quiet and challenge the mind. In my coaching, I go beyond advanced pickleball technique by integrating the mental side of the game. I represented the Czech Republic at the 2025 Pickleball World Cup Championship in Fort Lauderdale and designed a pickleball-based therapy program for teens with anxiety and depression—helping players build confidence, focus, and resilience both on and off the court.

"Wonderful and welcoming coach! We had such a great time learning the fundamentals as complete beginners to the sport.

Hi all - I’m looking for some new students for the winter season! It’s a great time to work on swing changes or learn the swing etc. I’ve had some great success over the years with winter training at the range and simulators to either work on the full swing or hone parts of the game. Chipping /putting short game or even speed training for those long drivers. Also breaking down the whole swing to get ready for spring. Tappan good center has a great set up all closed in with heaters or indoors at a sim. For preferably at the range where we can see direct results. Let me know I teach young /older newbies and or high level low handicappers! Thx Recently won first place with a teachme.to student at a local 9-hole scramble event.

With over 20 years of experience, I have honed my skills in the game, achieving a handicap as low as -2 and currently maintaining a handicap of 3-4. Participating in numerous MGA, USGA, and amateur tour events, I have celebrated victories in a couple of tournaments. My expertise lies in the short game, an area where we can all improve and shave off valuable strokes. Recognizing the significance of course management and maintaining a sharp game, I offer comprehensive instruction in these aspects. Whether building a swing for new players or addressing specific issues and fixes, I am dedicated to helping you enhance your skills on and off the course.

"I just love how he spots my weakness and we work through it… he definitely know how to play well and teach well. I am very happy to find my coach. Thank you Fares!

I got into pickleball after a few friends dragged me along to play. Now I’m hooked and absolutely love playing. I have taught many friends and newcomers how to play and excited to teach you.

"Brendan's lesson was quite helpful, especially in refining my dink shot technique, which I’d been struggling with. He explained how foot positioning can really make a difference, though I still have some work to do. Still, I’m optimistic about applying the tips he shared and hoping to improve further soon. If you’re looking to fine-tune specific skills, it’s worth giving Brendan a try.
