ILya is really awesome. He works extremely effectively with my 6 years old daughter who is new to tennis. She really enjoys the tennis class and learning with Ilya.

I just had my first tennis lesson with Coach Ilya and he was fantastic! Super knowledgeable, patient, and great at breaking down technique in a way that’s easy to understand. I could already feel improvement after just one session. Highly recommend him to anyone looking to up their game!

Had my first tennis lesson and was impressed! The instructor quickly spotted the issues with my form and helped me correct them during the session. Could immediately feel the improvement in my shots. Great teaching approach - highly recommend!

As a beginner, I’ve really appreciated training with my tennis coach over the past 3 weeks. He’s great at pointing out what I’m doing wrong and breaking things down in a simple, clear way that actually makes sense. He’s also kind and patient, and you can tell he genuinely enjoys teaching. Highly recommend for anyone just starting out or looking to build a strong foundation.

FAQs

  • What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

    I start with a chat my new student’s tennis background, asking about their goals and listening to understand what they need to work on and what excites them. From the conversation and from seeing them in drills, I will craft a tailored lesson plan for the student.

  • How did you get started doing this type of work?

    I've always loved sports and I've been training since 2010.
