Bio: Hi, I’m Muhammad Nawaz— a passionate pickleball coach and player with more than 4 years of on-court experience and a deep love for the fastest-growing sport in America. For me, pickleball isn’t just a game — it’s a lifestyle. It’s where fun meets focus, competition meets community, and anyone can become a better version of themselves with the right mindset (and a solid backhand). I’ve spent the last four years learning the game inside and out, and now I help others do the same — whether you're stepping onto the court for the first time or pushing to reach the next level. My coaching style is all about energy, encouragement, and smart strategy. I’ll meet you where you are and guide you toward real improvement — without taking the fun out of it. Let’s train hard, laugh often, and turn your goals into game-winning shots.
