As an accomplished, lifelong tennis player and competitor, I have coached the game since 1988. I am a former USPTA professional with an advanced degree in Psychology, focusing on sports competition. Additionally, I have spent over ten years in secondary and post-secondary academic education. This unique combination of training and experience has given me great insight into how humans learn and develop new skills at various stages of life. My innovative training methodology is designed to prevent the formation of bad habits and improper muscle memory during the crucial stroke acquisition phase. Recovering from a life-altering car crash and a host of sports injuries has given me a new perspective on life and coaching. Every day is an opportunity to introduce the wonder of this game to everyone I meet and help those already engaged to be the best they can be. I look forward to seeing you on the court soon!

"Michael has a mastery of both the physical and mental aspects of the sport, and offered a great mix of constructive criticism and encouragement to both effectively get the teaching points across and keep me motivated. After taking the time to understand my specific goals, he worked with me to develop personalized instructions that were tremendously helpful. He offered practical advice on how I could improve each specific shot – the serve, the groundstrokes, the volley, etc. and gave me clear directions on how I can practice on my own time beyond the lessons to incorporate those improvements. Michael’s technical skills and work ethic make him a great tennis instructor, and his ability to inspire the same passion he has for tennis in others makes him a great ambassador for the sport.

Hello Everyone! My name is Coach Wilson I’m currently still in college. I have been playing tennis for the past 6 years and coaching for the last 3 years. Although it may not seem like a lot it only takes at least 2 years of great focus and motivation to be a better player. I myself started around a year before highschool and ended up playing singles 1 for varsity all 4 years. And moving onto college I played 5 singles my first year, had a great run. Second year comes and for the past 6 months I officially started coaching myself. I am a very technical coach developing first your form, footwork, and strategies towards the game. I offer all kinds of lessons whether it’s footwork drills, feeds, or one on one rallies. I am extremely confident in my coaching skills whereas I am able to coach all ages between 5-70 yrs old, as well as coaching beginners, intermediate and advanced students. I currently have around 12 students all around the ages of 5-70. Lastly my hours are flexible depending on the week I have a specific court I coach at in San Dimas but I can travel to you if really needed!
