I’m a former math teacher and former tech exec turned pickleball enthusiast. Over the last couple of years, I’ve invested a massive amount of time studying the sport and breaking it down into its foundational pieces in order to teach myself how to excel at the game. In that time, I’ve gone from an absolute beginner to an advanced level player - I play at the 4.5+ level, I’ve won multiple medals in tournaments, and I’ve earned a Professional Coach certificate through PPR. In addition to independent coaching, I am also the lead pickleball coach at Bay Club Redwood Shores & Broadway. I am truly energized by teaching others everything I've learned about this sport. As a former math teacher and Harvard alum, I take an academic approach to coaching: lessons are planned in advance, skills are broken down into steps, there are opportunities to practice and make mistakes, and I provide written notes and videos post-lesson to solidify your learning. As a former tech leader, my coaching involves giving direct and timely feedback, relying on first principles to guide lessons, and adapting quickly to optimize your learning. Thank you for considering me and I hope to see you on the courts soon!
"My first lesson with Alan was very helpful, especially in how he taught me a one-handed push slice dink to replace my basic two handed backhand dink. I appreciated that he was clear in the communication and was able to breakdown a new movement step by step so I could easily pick it up. He emphasizes repetition and provided immediate feedback while practicing. By the end of the hour, I felt more confident in my backhand dinking. Highly recommend a lesson with Alan!

What do coaches say I need to bring to my lesson?
Coach Gordon
pickleball coach
Good court (tennis or pickleball) shoes, water, hat/sunglasses/sunscreen
Coach Corinna

Bring a hat, water bottle and wear court shoes. Running shoes are not recommended.
What do coaches say about teaching kids and youth?
Coach Travis
pickleball coach
If kids are under 8, it’s about engagement and having fun. Lots of encouragement, making each shot part of a noncompetitive game. Ages 8-13 is when skills training is ideal. Can be the most intensive age where a child wants to develop their game and needs lots of repetition with hitting partners of similar ability.
