Introduction: First, for basketball, you can see some of my lessons on my YouTube channel: Basketball mechanics w/coach Greg.” I have four years of basketball coaching experience with Frosh and JV girls high school teams. I also have 3 years of tennis coaching experience at the high school level, where I worked with beginners and intermediate players. For basketball, I learned how to teach girls who have never played basketball or a sport in their life and advance girls to a more demanding level on the JV team. I personally have been playing the sport for 30 years now. I play all positions and can teach all positions and moves. I love coaching, the sport, the analysis of a players body mechanics, and the sense of accomplishment players feel when they master something like shooting or dribbling. My pricing and quality can not be beat by any coach. My first lesson is always $20 for one hour. I recommend the parent watches the lesson to witness the quality of the instruction. The last 7 first lessons have resulted in further lesson packages being purchased. Afterward, the lesson price is $40/hr, unless you prepay for 4 lessons @ $35/hr ($140).

I've been taking tennis lessons with Coach Greg and he is not only a great coach but he is a lot of fun! He is the 3rd coach I've tried and I guess the 3rd time really is a charm! I really just wanted to take lessons to improve my fitness but after training with him I have been able to play with people looking for tennis partners and not embarrass myself. But seriously he gives great tips on form and has really improved my tennis. We usually spend the first part of the lesson learning something new and then he lets me practice at the end so I never get bored. I have a pretty short attention span but that's why I like his style of coaching. The time goes by so fast I'm always surprised when the time is up. But like they say - time flies when you're having fun. I highly recommend him!

Amazing tennis coach!! I have improved immensely in just 5 lessons. Greg is very knowledgeable about tennis and his pointers are very effective. He gives quality lessons, and you really can’t beat the price. I just signed up for four more lessons with Greg, and I can’t wait to keep learning/playing!

We have been taking Basketball coaching for our 7 year old for almost half an year now. We wanted our kid to improve skills so will feel more confident in games. Coach Gregg has been phenomenal in this. He teaches the core skills and technique with perfectly tailored lessons. He is very patient and always so polite and friendly, working tirelessly on getting the right technique through. He knows the shortcomings and strengths of our kid and knows exactly what lessons will help him. He improvises methods for the specific situation. He is a true coach, not just someone to keep your kid busy for an hour, but the one who will help them go to next level. Our kid looks forward to his classes and is developing confidence and skill incredibly. He is also very accommodating, helping reschedule lessons with utmost ease. Since we liked the basketball class so much, we started taking tennis classes with him as well. He carries kid size tennis racquets so all we have to do is show up and start learning :) Thanks so much coach Gregg!!
