About Me
My name is Gabriel Kotto, I am a PTR Master Tennis Performance Coach. I was the Head Coach for South Lakes Girls' varsity tennis team in 2010, where we won the Northern Virginia Liberty District high school single championship. Above on pictures:With Nick during my tenure at the IMG Academy, Head Coach in Reston at South Lakes High School, next at the Professional Tennis Registry's Symposium in Hilton Head South Carolina.
I am a USTA tennis Head Coach as well for TGA (Teach, Grow, Achieve) for elementary schools in Richmond. I learned the Nick Bolletieri method of teaching and assisted him while coaching Sloan Stephens in 2008 at the IMG Tennis Academy. I am a touring coach for my daughter who plays USTA ITF Pro- circuit.

Student Feedback
Gabriel is a top notch tennis coach, he is very knowledgeable of the game, highly skilled in teaching kids not only the game but the history of tennis and extremely patient at all times. He teaches so you’ll know your way around the court to profect the game of tennis. Gabriel is very professional and always prompt with time. I highly recommend Gabriel to anyone.
Mr. Kotto is an excellent tennis coach. Not only is he competent, but is very patient and can teach the sport to youngsters at all levels of skill. I just completed my 7th lesson, but plan to continue for as long as he will have us as clients.
