Took my first ever tennis classes with Salikh and it was great! In 10 sessions he taught me all the basics of the game and we practiced a lot. I definitely feel more comfortable on court now. And I will be taking more classes with this coach! Highly recommend to take classes with Salikh!

I am new in tennis, but Salikh made me fall in love with this sport and does it every time I go to train with him. Trust me, he is gonna make you sweat if you really want to and most important you’ll get the results and personalized approach.

Salikh is a great coach with a professional tennis background. We started training a month ago and I see I’m getting better at tennis. Thank you. Highly recommend, no doubts

It was really hard to find a good tennis teacher, really. Idk why but nobody in la can explain technical part of tennis.
But Salikh can! He really knows a lot about tennis and he can explain. With 1.5 month of trainings (I played with another guys for a year before) - my level improved a lot and now I play in USTA tournament.

Salikh is a great coach, definitely pushes you and wants you to succeed. He knows the game very well. Also very easy to work with in terms of scheduling and types of sessions/drills.
