About Me
Sports are my love and tennis has become my passion. As a high school for 12 years taking boys' and girl's teams to multiple regional championships, final fours, and state championships, I thrive on seeing players and teams compete and succeed on the court. My coaching style starts with building a relationship with my students based on my background as a high school teacher.
Teaching Style
I start with building a foundation of technique and footwork. The foundation leads quickly to hitting the ball back and forth with me or another student. Once rallies are possible then strategy, more technique, and detailed footwork will be slowly added to provide early success and eliminate frustration or giving up. Mental help, workout suggestions, and even video analysis (for technique and unique shot charting) can be added as the player progresses on their tennis player journey and desires more advanced skills. New and experienced players need to enjoy tennis and make it enjoyable and successful.
