Play Better, One Session at a Time

Tennis · Pickleball · Table Tennis

I coach all three racquet sports. And if you’re too far away, I’ll connect you with a coach I trust.

Welcome to Coach Arik Chan

Experienced, certified, and passionate coaching across three racquet sports.

Whether you’re picking up a racket for the first time, returning after years away, or fine-tuning your game — I’ll meet you where you are.

And if distance gets in the way? I’ll point you to someone good.

My Edge

I’ve been a photographer since 1980 and a trainer with the People’s Association.

Teaching photography taught me to notice the little details most people miss — the angle of light, the split-second timing, the small adjustments that change everything.

That carries straight into my coaching.

I see the small things in your strokes that make the biggest difference. A grip that’s slightly off. A footwork pattern that’s costing you power. A follow-through that’s robbing your consistency.

I also believe joy is a strength.

Passion doesn’t feel like work. I love working with players who bring that energy to the court — because that’s when real improvement happens.

Too Far Away? I’ll Still Help.

I coach table tennis. But I can’t be everywhere.

If you’re based somewhere I don’t regularly coach, I’ll connect you with a table tennis coach I personally trust. People I’ve played with, learned from, or know well.

You’ll be in good hands — and I’d rather point you to someone excellent than pretend to be everywhere at once.
