Learn Tennis with Dean

⭑5.0 (11)
💰$78 weekly lessons

Former Division One tennis standout from Coppin State University turned passionate mentor and coach. My journey in tennis has been nothing short of exhilarating, marked by victories on the court and a deep commitment to nurturing talent in others. Since 2022, I've been making waves in the tennis world, clinching multiple tournament titles and solidifying my reputation as a force to be reckoned with. But my true passion lies in guiding the next generation of tennis stars to reach their full potential. In the summer of 2023, I had the honor of directing the Tennis Camp at Cocoa Beach Racquet Club, where I worked closely with juniors aged 5-17, imparting technical skills and instilling values of sportsmanship, discipline, and perseverance. My coaching journey has taken me to prestigious academies such as JTCC and IMG Academy, where I lend my expertise to shape the future of tennis. Through personalized training, strategic insights, and unwavering support, I strive to empower my students to excel both on and off the court. Join me in pursuing excellence, where every swing, every lesson, and every triumph brings us closer to greatness.

Even though he hits a two-handed backhand, he fixed my one-handed backhand and I didn’t even know that I was hitting it wrong.

My favorite tennis coach hands down. I always look forward to working with Dean. He’s help me understand how to hit a forehand and back hand.
