About Me
I am the Boys Varsity Tennis Coach at The Villages HS. I enjoy building the character of my players and building the tennis skills of people of all ages. My objective is to assist each player reach their potential! I am also a certified NASM Personal Trainer who takes great care with my students in stretching, conditioning, court movement and correct form. I have played tennis sine 13 years old and fell in love with the game! I was an All Conference high school player and enjoyed tournament play back in NC. My wife and I reside in Spanish Springs with our Malty-Poo named Jake and we enjoy The Villages lifestyle. I am a positive, encouraging and motivating teacher!
Teaching Style
I teach on the premise that each player at any age and any skill level can develop habits and stroke patterns employed by "The Pros". In essence, I instruct towards the objective that each player can ultimately "Play like the Pros!" I work specifically with a players physical abilities, court movement and fundamentals to build enjoyment, fun and mastery into their game! I can instruct on the nuances of all strokes and special emphasis on foot work and agility. I can teach children just beginning or a player prepping for Senior Games tournament play. I take pride in also teaching game strategy and ball placement to make for a more accomplished player. Did I say I make it fun?
