BIO

In my lessons, everything is framed as a game or challenge in one way or another. The only way to know if you're getting better is to measure your progress, so beginning players are given a personal Achievement Folder to track each new accomplishment as they build new skills and become confident players. I bring unmatched creativity to each of my lessons, and players can expect enjoyment and improvement from each lesson, leaving you excited to complete the 'homework' that I assign in between our practice sessions. You will run, you will sweat, you will get better, and you will fall in love with tennis!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • Where will the lessons take place?

    Your coach will come to any court of your choice. Not sure of the closest court? No sweat, they will recommend a convenient location.
  • How do I know I’ll love my coach?

    We ask you questions and hand pick the perfect coach based on what you are looking for. We are so confident in our coach selection process that we offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee. If we can’t find the perfect instructor for you then we will refund your unused lesson credits.
  • Can I start with just one lesson?

    You sure can, although we offer a 100% money back guarantee so most students start with a lesson package to save money since there is no risk.
  • How do I get in contact with my instructor?

    Once you have booked your lesson package, you will immediately receive your instructor's contact information. The quickest way to schedule your first lesson is to call or text your coach and they'll get back to you asap. If your coach doesn't hear from you they'll reach out within 24 hours.
  • I’ve never played before, do you work with beginners?

    Absolutely! Our certified instructors regularly work with players of all ages and ability levels.
  • Can I bring a friend?
