I've now had four lessons with Kenny, and the improvement in my game over that time has far exceeded my expectations. I went in with a terrible serve and backhand, and now I'm really hitting well. Kenny has given me the skills and confidence to play some competitive games. He's also answered all of the stupid questions about tennis that I'd be too embarrassed to ask anyone else. I highly recommend Kenny to anyone looking to improve their game, whether they're a complete beginner or have some experience they're looking to build upon.

Kenny's lesson really was quite helpful, especially with refining my footwork and serving. There's a good balance between steady guidance and letting me find my rhythm, which I appreciate. It's not all just drills though, he keeps things quite engaging without sacrificing focus. Still, I think with a bit more variety in techniques we could make even better progress, but overall, it’s a solid experience. If you’re looking for a coach who keeps it real but attentive, you might want to give Kenny a shot.

I really feel like Kenny provided a lesson that hit the right balance. I didn't leave feeling overwhelmed, but I definitely picked up some useful tips. Though, I’d still like to see a bit more focus on my serve next time, it's a work in progress. Still, it’s pretty clear he knows his stuff and keeps things straightforward, so I’m optimistic about future lessons with him. Honestly, if you're after a calm, pragmatic approach to improving your game, I’d suggest giving Kenny a shot.

The lesson covered basic front and back hands, and I especially appreciated how the coach helped me work on my back hand since I’ve been struggling a bit with it. It definitely built my skills and I feel more confident now. Though I’m just following the plan we've set together, I think there’s room to expand on this focus in future lessons. Still, it’s encouraging to see tangible progress, and I’ll keep working toward my overall goal with Kenny.

Kenny's lesson was quite good really, he builds up skills by reviewing what I’ve learned before and adds new elements, which I find pretty helpful. Though, I still need to work on my forehand and backhand, but I appreciate the steady approach. Still, I think with a bit more focus on those areas, I’ll see even better progress. If you're looking for someone who methodically develops your tennis skills, trying Kenny could be worth a shot.

Kenny’s lesson was quite helpful, especially in refining my serve and rally consistency. Though I still need to work on footwork, the focus on fundamentals made a real difference. Still, I think there’s room to improve certain areas, but I’ll keep at it and see how it goes, perhaps with continued focus on placement. If you’re looking for a steady and practical approach, you might find Kenny’s coaching worth a try.

Kenny's focus on minute details in today’s lesson really made a difference, especially with forehands, backhands, and serves, areas I’ve been doing wrong. Though I think working more on momentum could help improve my game further, I still find his attentive approach quite helpful and encouraging. If you're after precise feedback and steady progress, it's worth giving Kenny a try.

The lesson was quite good, especially with how Kenny broke down the serve, which was pretty helpful.

Kenny is an outstanding instructor. He walks you through all the motions, step by step, helping it all make sense and replace any of the bad habits you may have already developed. He's also extremely patient. And he's eager to answer any questions you may otherwise feel stupid asking about tennis fundamentals or how to buy/maintain a racquet. Highly recommended.

Honestly, I felt the lesson with Kenny was quite helpful, especially his focus on improving my serve. Still, I think I could benefit from a bit more on volley techniques next time. Anyway, it's been a good experience so far, and I might just give it another shot.
