In addition to coaching Pickleball, I am deeply passionate about golf—a game I’ve loved since 2007. Over the years, I’ve not only dedicated myself to improving my own skills but also found joy in sharing the game with others. Each year, I volunteer at the Celebrity Tournament, an experience that keeps me connected to the excitement and community of the sport. One of my most memorable moments was playing in a tournament alongside a professional golfer. That experience shifted my perspective from an amateur’s approach to seeing the game through a pro’s vision—completely transforming how I play and how I teach. My goal is to help others make that same leap in their game, whether you’re just starting out or looking to sharpen your skills. Golf is more than just a sport—it’s a great way to spend quality time with friends and family, enjoy the outdoors, and stay active. If you’re ready to learn, I’d love to help you take your first swing and discover all the joy golf has to offer.

"Coach Katherine is the kind of coach that makes learning fun. I never thought I would pick up a golf club but with Katherine, it’s really easy peasy like Sunday morning. She teaches me to believe in myself and I can achieve anything, so I am mentally stronger and determined to learn how to play golf. Deep down I know if I try my best, I can learn to be the best at anything even golf. Thank you Coach Katherine

Hi there, I’m a former varsity tennis player and have shifted to playing pickleball over the years! After being asked for tips and being approached about lessons during open plays, I’ve decided to dedicate more time to coaching. I’d be happy to teach anyone from complete beginners up to 3.0s. My main goals are to be patient and encouraging while we get you ready to beat your friends or podium at a tournament :)

"Pranit is a great coach for beginners. I came into pickleball with no prior racquet sport experience and was quite nervous to start, but he was very welcoming and made the process fun. He focuses on the fundamentals a lot, which has helped me understand the game and why certain strategies work. To be honest, I’m not too into sports and didn’t expect much from pickleball, but his instruction has made me enjoy it and look forward to playing every week. I eventually want to learn more intermediate techniques from him too. I’d highly recommend taking lessons with Pranit.
