I’m the founder of SBA Tennis & Pickleball, a Bay Area academy focused on delivering high-quality, structured, and fun tennis and pickleball instruction for players of all ages and levels. While I work directly with students, SBA is more than just one coach—I lead a team of experienced, high-energy instructors who consistently deliver professional, engaging lessons across all programs. Our coaches work with everyone from beginners to advanced players, with a strong emphasis on proper technique, game understanding, and long-term development. All lessons take place on our reserved courts at Cupertino, so you’re guaranteed a court every session—no waiting, no interruptions, and no risk of losing your time like at public courts. My background as a licensed physical therapist with a Doctorate in Physical Therapy allows me to bring a unique, results-driven approach to coaching. I specialize in stroke biomechanics, movement efficiency, and injury prevention, helping players improve faster while staying healthy. With over a decade of coaching experience and a 5.0 NTRP playing level, I’ve worked with players ranging from young beginners to advanced competitors. Through SBA Tennis & Pickleball, we’ve built a reputation for making learning simple, structured, and enjoyable—whether you’re picking up a racket for the first time or looking to take your game to the next level.
"My son (6) has been going to weekly group classes for almost a year. We really like the coaches here. Both Coach Brandon & Coach Jovan are very good at coaching young kids and also keep the kids engaged. I also appreciate the way how Coach Brandon run the clinic a lot! It gives us a lot of flexibilities to fit in my kid and my family's schedules, which is a huge bonus!!

Coach Jay-Ar

Assess level: With advanced players I skip the basics conversation entirely. First lesson is about seeing your game live — shot tolerance, footwork under pressure, patterns you default to, and where your game breaks down against pace or spin. I’m evaluating like a 5.0-level competitor would: what’s your identity on court, and what’s missing from it.
Coach Akshay
tennis coach
I usually consider 3+ levels as advanced. At this level I rally with the student to understand what there tennis level falls between 3 to 4+ skill levels. At this level, there are unique forms of users. I will evaluate the students form and try to optimize that form (for example some students are best with one handed backhand while others are better with 2 handed backhand and some students turn their bodies while hitting while others prefer to keep a more open body position. Whatever your natural form is, I try to improve that with improved fitness and practice.

1. Comfortable, non-marking tennis shoes for proper court traction and support. 2. Athletic clothing you can move freely in. 3. A water bottle to stay hydrated through the session. 4. A towel for wiping down between points and drills. 5. Sunscreen and a hat if you’re playing outdoors. 6. Your own racquet, if you have one, though demo racquets are available if you don’t. 7. A positive attitude and readiness to work. That’s really all you need. I’ll bring the expertise, the tools, and the game plan.
Coach Jay-Ar

Absolutely. I love introducing young players to the game the right way — building real fundamentals early, keeping lessons fun and confidence-building, and instilling habits that make tennis a lifelong sport rather than a phase.
