BIO

I have a deep love of tennis. I began playing at 16, and began attending a junior program in Tucson, AZ. I trained under a former professional tennis player, as well as many former college players. I consistently played at least 5 days a week, taking private lessons as well, until enlisting in the Marine Corps at 22. I have now been giving private tennis lessons for about 3 years. As far as my teaching style, I can tailor it to each player. I have coached all ages, as young as two. I like to dig into the mind game a bit, and am aware that there are many different styles of technique. I am not dogmatic in relation to technique, however, there are certain aspects of the game that are universal, such as certain footwork techniques. I am very relaxed, but will push hard if requested. I look forward to playing with you!

What my students are saying...

  • "I really enjoy the lessons with Carlos. He is very professional and makes the hard techniques easy to handle. He always well organizes his class, making it efficient and effective. More importantly, he is nice and patient enough to schedule the specific plan for my training. I like his summarization at the end of each lesson, reminding me of the key points he showed to me in the class, which makes me comfortable for self-practice. He tends to showing you the details of those techniques himself vividly, you would never worry those things talking there too theoretic. I really recommend the lessons from Coach Carlos. I honestly thanks him for all the help on my way to being more professional and stronger."

  • "Very patient instructor with this beginner player. Learned a lot on our first instruction. Excited for our next lesson."
