"Eleazar's lesson was quite engaging, and I really appreciated the energy he brought to the court. Plus, I learned a lot from the first lesson, especially about the basics. Still, I think a bit more focus on technique would be helpful next time, though his relaxed style makes it easy to stay comfortable during the lesson. If you’re after a steady, approachable coach, then definitely give Eleazar a try.

"My lesson with Ken was quite helpful, especially in understanding proper strokes. Though I still need to work on them, I left feeling more aware of my shot control and confident I can build on this with more practice. Honestly, I appreciated how the lesson started to focus on practical adjustments but also he made it more fun with mixing it with multiple strokes from my end that it looked like I’m already playing! Still, I hope to see further improvement, but I’d say it’s worth trying Ken if you’re aiming to learn good techniques or refine your game.

"Loumienne was a great coach! I’ve never played tennis before but she explains things so well & made the lesson fun. I appreciate her asking me what level of intensity I’d want for the lesson. She made it a fun challenge and that’s something that I wanted to add onto my fitness routine. Highly recommend!
