BIO

I'm a USPTA Certified Professional tennis instructor with 23 years of teaching experience in California, Florida and North Carolina. My teaching style is very comfortable - I teach by telling and showing, using imagery to help students grasp the concepts. My approach is to break down tennis into: "Receiving" - footwork, preparation and court positioning, and "Sending" - stroke production, anticipation, shot selection, tactics and court positioning. I am very observant and patient. My style makes learning fun, easy and relaxed for my students, whether they are children or adults, Beginners, Intermediate or Advanced-level players. How fast do YOU want to get good? (r)

  • 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.
