DENMARK
I initially booked one session with Niko just to try it out, not really knowing what to expect. After the first session, I quickly booked more because I instantly felt the improvement in my own game.The sessions are super fun, focused on YOU and intense at times, but always in a good way. Niko really listens to your requests and is great at explaining things in a way that actually sticks.
He’s a lovely and fun guy and you can truly feel the passion and love he has for padel. That energy transfers straight to you and that’s one of the things I really, really love about him and the sessions.
If you love padel and want a coach who genuinely shows interest in YOU, this is the guy you’re looking for.
10/10 recommendation from me 🎾❤️

Niko has been an incredible padel instructor over the past few months. I started as a complete beginner, barely able to make contact with the ball and definitely not hitting it correctly, and his patience alone deserves an award.
He strikes the perfect balance between deep knowledge, genuine passion, and a playful energy that makes learning fun, while still knowing exactly when to be serious and push me to improve.
I’ve trained with him both in group settings and one-on-one, and I’ve loved every experience. No matter the format, he creates an environment that’s encouraging, challenging, and motivating.
Somehow, he’s seen potential in me that I didn’t, and honestly still don’t fully see, and that belief has made all the difference. I’m incredibly grateful for his coaching and very lucky to have Niko in my life.

Niko is a very knowledgeable, skillful, observant and charismatic coach. He is very good at noticing imperfections in your technique and designing drills to address them. Was a delight to work with!

3 amazing padel sessions with coach Niko in Chiang Mai, Thailand. You know who to call if you’re there and want to up your skills and leave tons of sweat on the court.

From me there is a clear recommendation for padel sessions with Niko. The communication in advance was already great, by the way he is also a really nice guy and playing padel with him was really fun. He explains really well and brings variety and above all a lot of fun to the training.
I'm looking forward to further practises with him.

I’ve had four sessions with Niko so far, and I’ve really enjoyed training with him.
I’m very happy with the progress I’ve made. Niko is extremely patient, attentive, and consistent in helping me improve step by step. I especially like how he introduces new techniques gradually, which makes learning feel encouraging, structured, supportive, and confidence-building rather than overwhelming.
Highly recommended!

Thank you so much for teaching Ben and I.We had such a happy hour and came away much more confident in Bandejas, backhand volleys and court positioning.
You made it fun and we wish that we lived in Chaing Mai for weekly sessions with you Niko!

Niko is an amazing coach, but above all an absolutely wonderful person.I personally started with just one introductory training session, and ended up buying several packages… and doing training sessions lasting several hours a day 😂🙈
The atmosphere is incredible! It’s fun, but also intense 😂
Most importantly, Niko is truly there for you and fully focused on you. He constantly observes, identifies your strengths and weaknesses, and teaches you how to play better.
The knowledge is delivered in perfectly balanced portions, so you never feel overwhelmed, yet you always leave happy and having learned something new.
⚠️ Warning! The lessons are insanely addictive! 😂

I am absolutely thrilled with my sessions with Niko! I started completely from scratch and have been training for almost 4 months now. The results are amazing. Every workout gives me a massive boost of energy and puts me in a great mood for the rest of the day, so I’m definitely going to keep going.Niko has an incredibly responsible approach, and his lessons are always perfectly structured. He explains techniques in a very clear and accessible way, ensuring we practice every skill until it's fully mastered. I also have to mention his great sense of humor - it makes the training feel easy and time just flies by.
If you’re looking for a coach who can professionally build your game and deliver real progress, Niko is the coach you need!

I’ve trained with quite a few padel coaches in Singapore and at clubs across Bali, Phuket, Bangkok, and Tokyo, and I can honestly say Niko is one of the most passionate coaches I’ve met.What really stood out to me was how engaged he is during training. If he spots a mistake, he fixes it immediately - even if the shot still goes in - so you’re constantly improving rather than repeating small errors.
He’s also great at explaining the technical side of the game. He doesn’t just tell you what to do; he explains why, how to adjust, and what common mistakes to watch out for. That really helped things click for me.
The drills were another highlight. They get progressively harder and feel much closer to real match situations, not just easy feeds. You’re moving, adjusting, and working to execute properly, which makes the training very effective (and a solid workout).
Over five days, I did three sessions of two consecutive hours of one-to-one coaching. It’s definitely tiring, but Niko’s energy and enthusiasm make the sessions fly by. You walk off the court exhausted but happy.
If I had more time in Chiang Mai, I’d definitely have booked more sessions.
If you’re thinking about padel coaching, I’d highly recommend training with Niko.
