Coach Mikele gave me some fantastic drills to work on and helped me understand the mistakes I was making. Would definitely recommend! > From Jill, 5 out of 5 > Been playing tennis since I was young, but slowed down after highschool. I was very rusty, and played with wildly old-school techniques that my last long-term instructor instilled in me… I was looking to find someone that could work with me to improve my game/footwork, correct my form, and give me a solid workout. A lot of other instructors I’ve seen have a tendency to over-correct their student on a first lesson, under pressure to make it “worth while” for them. This usually makes it equally/more stressful on a student. But Mikele gave me an extremely effective and stress free first lesson.… > From Steven, 5 out of 5 > My friend and I have been taking lessons with Mikele for a few months now and have already learned a lot. He was able to quickly gauge our skill level and adjusted his lesson accordingly. He comes up with a plan for each lesson but also solicits our input to see if there is anything we'd like to focus on. While his instructions are fast-paced, he is patient in explaining things several times. I appreciate that he is challenging us to get better while also improving our form and correcting wrong habits. On top of that, he organizes a tennis clinic with other players in his network, which is an… > From Hannah, 5 out of 5 > Mikele is a great and professional coach. My boyfriend and I were looking for techniques oriented classes and we had our first class with him today, which we definitely enjoyed. He focuses a lot on details and explains the mechanism very clearly. He also understands our struggles and concerns and provides professional guidance on how to improve our skills. During the class, he gave us very specific feedback on each stroke we made and helped us change our mindset with helpful drills. We are looking forward to taking more classes with him and would highly recommend him for people that want to e… > From Cheryl, 5 out of 5 > I am very new to tennis and was in serious need of some help with my technique and confidence. Especially when it came to my forehand and footwork. Mikele was excellent at coming up with drills that addressed my specific challenges and after one session I am already feeling much more confident. Not only was he patient with me as a beginner and very clear in his explanations, but he also made sure to challenge me so that I got the most out of the lesson. I am definitely looking forward to more lessons with Mikele and I would confidently recommend him to anyone who is looking to improve their g… > From Shawn, 5 out of 5 > Having experience with several coaches, I can say that my tennis coach is a true professional. He explains the technique and tactics of the game in detail, focusing on every small element, which allows for significant improvement in skills even in a short period of time. The training sessions are always well-organized, and each session motivates me to achieve new goals. Moreover, the coach creates a friendly atmosphere on the court, which adds confidence and comfort during practice. Highly recommend! > From Oksana, 5 out of 5 > I hadn’t hit in years and really wanted to get back to tennis; that’s when I found Mikele online. He’s clearly experienced, finds new ways to retrain my basics on things I have forgotten without ever making a session feel boring. Always on time and flexible with his schedule, Mikele has helped me work on technique, form, fitness, medicine ball workouts & much more! I suggest you definitely try it out. > From Deepti, 5 out of 5 > Coach Mikelo is an excellent coach with great attention to detail.
