Dmitry Bezborodov profile
About Dmitry

From competing at the top of Division I lineups to coaching at elite academies for aspiring professionals, I offer a rare, inside perspective on what it takes to reach the next level in tennis. I specialize in developing high-level juniors who are ready to separate themselves from their peers. I’ve been in the environments that produce top performers—and I know exactly what habits, training methods, and mindset create real breakthroughs. While I also coach adults and beginners, my core passion is working with driven players who feel stuck and helping them break through their limits. My coaching philosophy is simple: high standards, smart structure, and performance that shows up when it matters.

What students say...

"I was already playing at a high level in a league when I started training with Dmitry, but I wanted to improve my overall game and refine my style. He immediately identified what I needed to work on and tailored the training to push me past my plateau. My movement, shot selection, and consistency improved, and I feel much more confident in competitive matches. He treats you like a serious athlete and holds you to a high standard, which is exactly what I was looking for.

Level: Beginner•Lessons taken: 29•Verified āœ“
The lesson focusing on backhand training was quite helpful, especially with the detailed techniques you shared. I hope you can keep guiding me through the backhand and serve, as I still want to improve those areas. It’s good to see the progress I’ve made thanks to your clear instructions. Still, I think extra practice on foot positioning would be beneficial next time. Anyway, Patrick, I appreciate your patience and the specific focus on my backhand, and I’m looking forward to more sessions.

Patrick's lesson was quite comprehensive, covering many tennis skills each time, though I guess I could stick to the same focus for consistency. Still, the training really helped me get a better feel for different aspects of the game without feeling rushed. I think if I keep at it, I’ll improve steadily. Honestly, it’s a pretty good way to keep working on various techniques at once, definitely worth trying Patrick if you're aiming for a well-rounded tennis skill set.

Patrick is a phenomenal coach. While teaching a complete beginner like me, he was able to give very actionable pointers where I felt I made progress much more quickly than expected. He’s also extremely patient and encouraging, instilling in me confidence that I could and will continue to improve. As with all sports, mentality is half the game - so Patrick really has everything there is in a great coach and I would highly recommend him to all my friends.

The lesson with Patrick was quite focused, especially on training my weak points and playing game points, which I found quite helpful. Though I will probably do the same next time, I feel this approach keeps me on track without overcomplicating things. Still, I hope to see some added variety in our drills soon and maybe some new ways to challenge my game. If you're looking to work on specific aspects like I did, Patrick's a steady choice for that.

Oh, Patrick's lesson was quite straightforward and, well, quite helpful overall. I particularly appreciated the focus on drills that emphasized maintaining proper form and consistency, which I think really helped me improve my footing during rallies. Though I still need more practice to fully master the techniques, I left feeling more confident on the court. Still, I look forward to working on these skills further with Patrick.

The lesson with Patrick was quite good, especially since I felt like I learned specific strategies to improve my game. Though I still have some areas to tighten up, I’m optimistic about future lessons and how I can build on these skills. Still, I think with regular practice I’ll see steady progress, and it’s worth trying Patrick if you’re after consistent improvement.

Hey, so I thought the lesson was quite helpful, particularly the focus on many techniques training, which gave me a better sense of different shots. Still, I was hoping to work more on my footwork though. But overall, Patrick has a natural way of explaining things that makes sense. If you're looking to refine your game, it might be worth giving his lessons a try.

With Patrick, I’ve found the lesson quite helpful, especially since he pointed out some subtle adjustments to my backhand stroke that I hadn’t noticed before. Though, I still think a few more focused drills could make the improvements more concrete. Still, it’s worth trying him out if you want a coach who’s attentive without overloading you with info.

We’ve had 10+ lessons with Patrick for my sophomore JV player looking to improve over the summer. Could not recommend Patrick more! He’s encouraging, flexible, knowledgeable and meets his players where they are at each lesson- skill, mood and motivation-wise. We anticipate continuing with Patrick for years to come.

Honestly, I found the lesson quite helpful overall, especially the way Patrick explained the fundamentals clearly. Still, I think a bit more focus on footwork drills could make the experience even better. But yes, I’d feel comfortable recommending Patrick if someone’s looking to improve their game gradually.

My husband and I had a great lesson with Patrick. It's been a while since we both played tennis, and needless to say, we were a bit rusty. However, Patrick was patient with us and helped us get back on track. He's very pleasant and a great instructor. We recommend him.
