About Bahman

Hi, I'm Bahman! For 33 years, tennis has been a significant part of my life. But over the past 5 years, I have transitioned into a 4.5 rated Pickleball player. With my extensive teaching background, I truly enjoy working with players of all skill levels. I'm passionate about helping everyone improve and love the game as much as I do!

What students say...

"Hey, so I had a pickleball lesson with Bahman and I’d say it was quite helpful. He pointed out I need to sharpen my serve a bit more. Though I still want to focus on improving my backhand and better anticipating the ball during rallies. I liked that he gave me specific tips on those areas. Still, I guess I’m looking forward to the next lesson because I think I'll keep getting more confident. If you're into refining your game, maybe you could give Bahman a try too.
