Introduction: I absolutely love working with people of all ages and skill levels. I began playing tennis while growing up in Haiti and eventually moved to the U.S. when I was 10 years old. After playing professionally for 7 years I began coaching both at the developmental level and tour level and have been doing so for almost 2 decades. Whether you’re new to the sport picking up a racket for the very first time, a recreational player looking to improve, or a competitive player looking for a solid hitting session and some match play I’m here to help. Check out my FAQs for more details and pricing.

Coach Daren is great! His technical expertise in tennis is outstanding. he helped me improve my technics with various grips, strokes, footwork patterns and shot selection strategies specifically my forehand and backhand, and taught me how to incorporate topspin into my game. His ability to explain complex technical concepts in a simple and concise manner was truly impressive. He provided precise feedback and tailored his coaching approach to my individual needs and strengths. I would highly recommend Coach Daren to anyone looking to enhance their technical skills on the court.

Of all the times I’ve worked with Daren, I cannot stress enough how thoroughly impressed I am with his work quality and attention to detail. He has the ability to break down complex concepts into simple terms, and his understanding of the sport from top to bottom is something that I haven’t found much from other guys in the industry. I’m excited to move forward and with him more, and I’m excited to see how much I grow with him!
