Achille was very professional and patient in his coaching. He helped correct my mistakes and helped me get better in my techniques. I highly recommend Achille to anyone looking for a tennis coach.
Coach Achille tailors each lesson to meet my individual needs, focusing on both technique and strategy. He has a remarkable ability to break down complex skills into manageable steps, making learning both effective and enjoyable. I’ve seen significant improvement in my game, thanks to his constructive feedback and encouragement.
It was my grandson’s first lesson and Achille was great. After his lesson my grandson wanted to hit the ball more. That says a lot.
Achille was a wonderful coach. As a first time tennis player in my 40’s Achille gave me a quick understanding of fundamental drills with hands on object oriented lessons. He quickly had me hitting the ball, doing foot work, and working on top spin form. I look forward to continued lessons and highly recommend A bike to anyone wanting to gain a better understanding of the game from a coach with a practical hands on approach.
Amazing coaching style. Brings out the best in any athlete at any and all levels of development.

Achille has an amazing ability to explain the tennis strokes and how they should be done properly. I have never had any tennis coach explain things to me so easily. He is also extremely patient.
