Vahid M.

Hi! My name is Vahid. I grew in the Palm Beach area and have never moved! I began playing tennis at age 7 following in the footsteps of my two older brothers and father. If it wasn't for them, I would not be here today still playing this beautiful game. During my junior tennis career I was able to reach no. 1 in the country in the boys 14s and 16s, reached a career high of no. 28 in World ITF boys 18s and had a top 10 finish in ITF doubles beating players such as Donald Young and Juan Del Potro while playing Andy Murray and Gael Monfils. In college at Florida State University I became a 2011 All-American and had career highs of no. 7 and no. 21 in doubles and singles respectively. I also won the 2011 NCAA Arthur Ashe Sportsmanship and Leadership Award and captained two years at FSU. On the ATP Professional Tour I reached career high of no. 169 in doubles and reached career high of no. 804 in singles and beat the no. 2 team in world at ATP 250 Delray Beach Open in March 2014.

Each lesson depends on the level of player: Beginners: I use a simple technique while also keeping them entertained. Intermediate: We work on footwork along with technique and having fun. High Performance: We work on patterns and a structured positive mindset toward the game while strategizing. Professional: all of the above. Adults (singles or doubles): We make easy adjustments to strokes if needed and use specific drills to improve your singles/doubles game.
