Originally from Israel, my love for tennis began at age 9, leading me to train at various top academies in my home country. By my late teens, I had achieved the 2nd spot in a national tournament and competed internationally, which deepened my passion for the sport. My journey took me to Spain for further training and then to the United States, where I played singles and doubles for a Division 1 tennis team for 4 years. Now, I find immense joy in coaching and watching my students grow both in their skills and their appreciation for the game.

"Adi is a world class tennis coach. I started working with him to rebuild several fundamentals that I learned the wrong way. He patiently worked with me and improved my game and technique remarkably. He uses video recordings to deeply analyze your technique and track your improvements, which is not something I experienced with other coaches. Several people I play with have commented on how much I improved since I started working with him. He spends the lesson focused on improving your game the whole time, and he can 10x your game if you’re willing to put in the work. Can’t recommend him enough.

"Had the first lesson with coach Antoine, he is great! Started off with talking about our goals, and then assessing our skills, then working on each of our weaknesses and things to improve. He also gave us lots of pointers and strategies that are very helpful. Overall I am very happy that I gave this a try and it was time well spent!

Hi I'm Derek! I recently graduated from UC Santa Cruz, where I played four years of college soccer as a winger and an outside back. Since graduation, I have continued to stay involved with the sport both as a fan (come on Arsenal) and by playing in the SFSFL and other pick-up games around the city. As a coach, I use my experience with technical drills I have found most effective during my 16+ years as a player, and shape my sessions around whatever skills you'd like to work on, whether that be finishing, defending, technique, etc.

"The lesson was pretty good, especially since I appreciated how close Derek liked to stay nearby during the drill. Though I still need to get more comfortable with the ball, I feel like I made some decent progress, and the lesson highlighted that proximity can really help with focus. Hopefully, next time I can build more confidence with ball control. If you’re looking for a coach who keeps things close and helpful, Derek might be worth a try.
