About Me

I am a local Irvine tennis coach with over 27 years of playing experience and over 15 years of teaching experience! My passion is teaching and improving your tennis game!
I am offering fun private tennis lessons, semi-private tennis lessons, group tennis lessons and hitting only sessions for all ages (kids, teens, adults, seniors) and for all skill levels (beginner, intermediate, advanced). So whether you need to work on some specifics like your forehand, backhand, volley, serve, service return, overhead, drop shot, approach shot, footwork, singles strategy or doubles strategy-I would be more than happy to help you.

Teaching Style

I incorporate the same teaching fundamentals of the great Rick Macci and Patrick Mouratoglou while assimilating the same agility drills Roger Federer does to get the body properly conditioned. I teach the most modern footwork methods so the student can understand how to utilize positioning for the game.
The student will understand how to space themselves properly with the most advanced swing analysis. I'll break down the swing path with video analysis and correct any errors along the way.
I focus on "time and space" as this is what the sport is all about.

Coach Nic has been the best coach I’ve had for tennis. He not only really dials down the technique of my ground strokes, but pays really close attention to how to rotate and how to accelerate through your shot using your body as kinetic energy. It really makes sense how he demonstrates the way to transfer your weight into your stroke. Highly recommend him as your coach as he is super patient and easy to schedule lessons with.

Wonderful and patient coach. He really helped me focus on my forehand and how to swing with the correct form. Nic has pushed hed me to become more physically fit which is really needed to be a better tennis player. I highly recommend his coaching and he will make you work hard and with proper footwork.
