BIO

My name is Joao and I am from Brazil! I started playing when I was 8, I have played more than 500 tournaments in several countries so far in my career. I came to USA when I was 17 to play college tennis at UTSA and recently graduated with my Bachelors. I have had several different coaches in my life and have learned a lot of things that got me where I am today as a tennis player as well as establishing my teaching style as a coach. I am committed to helping my students achieve their goals no matter the age or level. Although tennis can be fun, I have high expectations from my students and continue to push them to the next level. I am current ranked in the ATP and continue to train and play professional tennis along side coaching.

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?
