BIO
Hi my name is Erik and I’m a Ventura tennis coach with over 46 years of playing experience and over 35 years of teaching experience! The great game of tennis has been part of my life since I was 5 years old. I love to teach tennis to any and all ages & skill levels. In the beginning, I was fortunate enough to have a mentor, coach & friend who spent his life researching tennis and sports, Vic Braden. Working with Vic in Coto De Caza, California from 1994 through 1996 gave me the knowledge to become the coach & person I am today. I look very forward to sharing what I’ve learned from working with some of the best minds in the game. I offer fun private tennis lessons, semi-private tennis lessons, group tennis lessons and hitting only sessions for all ages (kids, teens, adults, seniors) and all skill levels (beginner, intermediate, advanced). Video lessons available by request.... as well as online video lessons by request.

"I learned a lot about form and began to mentally break bad habits and gain technique to improve my game. The class was just fast paced enough to learn and practice the things that I needed to focus on."
