Hi, I’m Arik Chan 🙂
I’ve spent my life on the court — just not always the same one.
Badminton. Squash. Table Tennis. Tennis.
That journey gives me a unique perspective for teaching pickleball. I know what transfers from your sport — and what doesn’t.
Why Batam?
A while back, I met my Batam table tennis coaches for a weekend to share my pickleball know-how. They’d never played before.
Within two days, they were dinking and playing like they’d been at it for months.
That trip changed everything.
Away from daily distractions, with good food and focused court time, learning happens faster. And it’s way more fun.
That’s why I now run 3D2N Pickleball Getaways to Batam.
My coaching approach
If you already play tennis, table tennis, badminton, or squash at a decent level, I can help you unlearn the habits that don’t work in pickleball — and build from there 🙂
What I handle so you don’t have to
I’ve built relationships in Batam with:
Drivers — hassle-free transport
Hotels — clean, comfortable, close to courts
Indoor courts —
Restaurants — the best local seafood (Reziki Restaurant) and local food
You just show up and play.
The Batam Food Paradise
Good courts. Good company. Incredible seafood.
That’s the focus.
Family time, court time, makan time!

“Tennis, squash, badminton, table tennis — I’ve coached and played them all. That experience tells me exactly what works in pickleball… and what doesn’t.”
