"My daughter has taken various lessons with coach Gustavo. She initially played with orange ball with a kid size racquet and had many issues in the group classes. I initially thought my child had difficulty with the sport, but with coach Gustavo she is now beginning to play with an adult racquet utilizing the green ball.

About Jay-Ar

Tennis has been my life for 30 years — as a player, a college competitor, and now as a coach who’s put in over 345 lessons helping students actually improve. My game blends Federer-style touch and feel on the one-handed backhand with the heavy, modern topspin you see from players like Alcaraz and Sinner — and that’s exactly what I bring to your lessons, whether you’re building your fundamentals or refining a competitive game. I don’t believe in cookie-cutter lessons. Every session is built around your goals, your level, and what’s actually holding your game back — with the technology and tools (video analysis, ball machine, real match-play strategy) to back it up. Beyond the court, you’re joining a tennis community: connect with fellow students, ask me questions directly, work through structured courses at your own pace, and get access to local clinics and events. My goal is simple — help you fall in love with this game while getting genuinely better at it.

Coach was a part of the FIRST COHORT to graduate from the new USTA Coaching certification process. In addition to his leadership at the Campus, Coach has been a tennis instructor at two prominent Bay Area tennis organizations, coaching kids aged 5 to 15 and adults. ✅ Beginner ✅ Intermediate ✅ Advanced COACH IS ONLY CURRENTLY AVAILABLE FOR HIT SESSIONS ONLY (NO DRILLS) If you or your child play tournaments, I charge a fee to come and watch and provide a report after. I am one minute from the courts in Mountain View at Whisman Park.

What students say...

"The lesson went well, really, focusing on one section at a time meant Emily wasn't overwhelmed, which was quite helpful for her first time back on the court. Though I hope her forehand starts resembling her previous shape soon, I appreciated how the approach was measured and clear. Still, I think with a bit more attention there, her technique could really improve. Ryan's way of breaking things down makes a difference, if you're thinking about trying him out, I’d say he's worth considering to see how steady guidance can support your game.

Originally from Israel, my love for tennis began at age 9, leading me to train at various top academies in my home country.

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.

Tennis Lessons in San Francisco

Active coaching concentrates at Mission Dolores Park, Hayes Valley Playground, Margaret Hayward courts, and Alamo Square - so it's practical to pick a coach by neighborhood court.

Why take tennis lessons in San Francisco?

San Francisco's mild Mediterranean climate supports outdoor tennis lessons most of the year - temperatures rarely move outside 50-75F, fog burns off by late morning, and rain clusters in a short winter window. That keeps students on court for a consistent weekly cadence even when other northern cities shut down. The local coaching roster is unusually deep on competitive backgrounds: a former professional player, a former ATP-ranked singles and doubles competitor with notable tour wins, an internationally trained tennis pro who trained at Keio Tennis Academy in Tokyo, and a former D1 college tennis player. That density means an SF student can match a coach to a real goal - tournament prep, USTA league play, college recruiting work, or first-time adult fundamentals. Most coaching happens on hard courts at public neighborhood parks; clay is rare on the public side. The two main scheduling considerations are fog on west-side courts (Mission Blue, Margaret Hayward) in summer mornings and wind at coastal courts on afternoons - inland courts like Alamo Square and Hayes Valley stay protected.
