Private Lessons & Coaches in Lakewood, CO

I’ve been playing tennis since I was young. I play tennis to keep myself fit and as a means to unwind. It improves my reflexes and coordination and I’d love to share the sport with you!

"I’d say Ryan’s lesson was quite helpful, especially how he focused on my grip and footwork, I really felt like I got a clearer sense of fundamentals. Though, I still need some consistency, but I guess that’s part of the process. Still, I’d consider trying another lesson to keep building on what I learned.

With extensive experience in competitive tennis and a solid foundation in fitness and teaching skills, I thrive on blending enjoyment with hard work to help players achieve their next level. I'm passionate about creating personalized training approaches that cater to each player's unique strengths and areas for improvement. For me, coaching is not just about technique; it's about fostering a love for the game and ensuring every session is productive and enjoyable.

"Coach George was amazing. Patient, methodical, enthusiastic, caring, focused, encouraging, good natured, and highly skilled. We were very impressed,

Harnessing 13 years of experience, including my time as a full ride scholarship D1 athlete, I'm passionate about fostering a love for tennis in players of all levels. I have 4 years of coaching experience under my belt and have worked with all ages since I initially started. My coaching blends technical expertise, agility, and proper footwork to help you unlock your full potential on the court.

As a former Division 1 golfer at The Ohio State University, golf has been integral to my life for over 12 years. With a scratch handicap and a peak performance of +4, I've honed my skills to excel on the course. Instructing part-time for the past 5 years, I've discovered a deep passion for teaching golf and sharing my knowledge with others. Whether coaching beginners or fine-tuning the skills of experienced players, my goal is to help each find their love for the game and unlock their full potential on the fairways.

"Awesome first lesson

My name is Matthew and I’m a professional golf instructor based in Colorado! My coaching approach is based on a system for teaching golf, uniquely designed to guide golfers at all levels - yes, even beginners will find themselves launching that ball skyward in our very first session together! Our lessons are more than just theory, they're filled with practical drills guaranteed to sharpen your skills and give you that satisfying feeling of consistent improvement. I can't wait to help you on your golfing journey! I’ve been in the golf industry for over 20 years, starting at a driving range in Illinois and ultimately working with Titleist fitting golfers from all over the world. Are you a better player who has plateaued with their game? I can help you. If you are a first time golfer, I am highly skilled with beginners, from pro athletes taking up the game for the first time, to the CEO’s wife wanting to either learn or FINALLY be able to hit the ball in the air. I also speak fluent Spanish, hold a single digit handicap and have two hole-in-one’s to my name. I have played some of the world’s best golf courses and look forward to making your golf dreams come true!!

"Wow, I found the lesson quite useful, especially playing on that high-end simulator where I got to see my ball speed and swing direction in real time. Still, I think increasing the muscle memory of my golf swing could really help me build more consistency over time. Though, I left feeling confident about what needs work, and I might try some specific drills to reinforce what I learned. Matthew’s approach was steady and informative, and I’d say it’s worth giving him a try if you’re looking to refine your game.

With decades of experience playing and approaching a decade of coaching, I am deeply immersed in the world of golf. A member of the Colorado Golf Association and boasting a USGA GHIN Handicap in the single digits. I'm now focusing on helping others. From receiving repeat special invitations to prestigious events like the Golfweek US Senior Challenge to participating in PGA-sanctioned events, I've now transitioned into coaching. Hailing from Ventura County, CA, I developed an enduring love for the game from a young age. Today, I find myself even more passionate about golf, honored to coach others professionally. With patience and understanding, I tailor my instruction to each golfer's unique learning style, swing, and goals, ensuring the easiest route to success. Whether you're a seasoned player or just starting out, I'm here to help you elevate your game and follow your passion for golf.

"I felt there was ample time during the lesson, which let me really focus on specific areas like making my swing more natural, though I think more iron improvement is needed. It's encouraging to see such patience and attention to detail from James, and I might come back to work on those consistency issues. Still, I appreciated the relaxed pace, which made practice feel manageable and less stressful. If you're open to gradual progress with a calm, supportive approach, I’d consider trying James.
