BIO
From the moment you step on the court with me, you will begin to feel good about your decision to seek my help to improve your game. My passion for the sport comes through in every word and deed, and I use that enthusiasm to motivate you and bring out your best performance. I don't just teach you to play better tennis, I teach you how to teach yourself to play better tennis, enjoy it more fully and, win or lose, play the game that you've always imagined you could play. Through active visualization and projection techniques, I will teach you how to tap into that all-elusive "zone" where you, your racquet and the ball are in sync. Running through the heart of all my tennis lessons is the spirit of fun and joy -- we're outside in the sun (hopefully), enjoying the fresh air and the feeling of moving effortlessly around the court, striking the ball with fluid strokes and feeling and hearing that distinctive sound of ball against string. What could be better than that?!
