BOB SAVAR

PPR-Certified Pickleball Instructor • Author • Educator

Bob Savar is a lifelong teacher, writer, and student of the game. A PPR-certified professional pickleball instructor since 2018, Bob has taught hundreds of players across Palm Beach County, Florida, from beginners learning the fundamentals to advanced competitors refining their mental game.

Before discovering pickleball, Bob spent decades as an educator and entrepreneur—experiences that shaped his teaching philosophy. He brings that same passion for learning and communication to the court, blending clarity, patience, and humor in every lesson.

His approach combines physical technique with mental focus and emotional awareness—the heart of Stuck at 3.0–3.5? The Complete System for Breaking Through the Plateau.

Bob is also the author of several popular titles, including Advanced Pickleball Playbook, Pickleball for Seniors, and The Blue Zone Effect of Pickleball. He publishes Palm Beach County Pickleball News, a twice-monthly newsletter that connects and inspires thousands of local players with stories, tips, and community highlights.

When he's not coaching, writing, or playing, Bob enjoys mentoring new instructors, exploring wellness science, and reminding his students that the real goal of pickleball isn't perfection—it's joy."The joy of the game grows with every person you share it with." — Bob Savar
