"Coach Onur is an amazing coach. He’s very professional, patient, and has a great eye for detail. He helped me fix blocking footwork that I had been struggling with for years, and I could feel the difference right away.

I help Pickleball players in Briarcliff Manor, New York improve their technique, make smarter decisions, and play with more confidence. Whether you are new to Pickleball, building your fundamentals, or pursuing stronger competitive play, I create personalized lessons that make progress purposeful and enjoyable. With six years of playing experience, I tailor each session to your goals, experience, and learning style. We can focus on strokes, form, mechanics, court awareness, strategy, tactics, decision-making, or the mental side of playing with patience and focus.

I teach in person at Chilmark Park in Briarcliff Manor, East Rumbrook Park and Travis Hill Park in White Plains, and Main Street Park Pickleball in Tuckahoe. I provide paddles, pickleballs, a portable net, cones, targets, and other training aids as needed. Bring your preferred paddle if you have one, plus a smile and a coachable attitude. Book a lesson and let’s get started.
