"The lesson went pretty well. Marc gave me some good tips on court positioning, forehand/backhand drives and well as some placement strategies. I can take the feedback and work on it during my pickup games. Looking forward to the next lesson with Marc to keep building on what I’ve learned so far.

"Manny’s lesson was quite well organized, and I appreciated how encouraging he was throughout. The new serve practice method was pretty helpful, and he was flexible when I asked to focus on volleys and slide techniques. Still, I think working more on footwork and backhand positioning could help me react faster. Overall, a good session that left me feeling motivated to keep improving. If you're looking for a coach who’s consistent and attentive, maybe give Manny a try.

I’m dedicated to helping students improve their technical skills, fostering their love for tennis, and watching them grow both as players and in confidence.

Over the years, I’ve developed a strong understanding of the game, especially from a defensive perspective, and I take pride in my leadership, positioning, and ability to read the field. As a player, I’ve always been vocal and disciplined — someone my teammates can count on. Now as a coach and mentor, I aim to bring that same energy to developing young players. I focus on teaching the fundamentals of defending, building confidence on the ball, and helping athletes grow both technically and mentally. Whether I’m training center backs to lead the backline or helping players understand the game at a higher level, I’m passionate about sharing what I’ve learned and giving back to the sport that’s given me so much.
