About
If you're looking for a private tennis coach who brings both high-level competitive experience and a personalized approach to training, I'm the right choice. Here’s what sets me apart:
🏆 Elite Playing Experience – I was ranked in the top 10 in Northern California when I was 18, played Division 1 college tennis at UC Santa Barbara (a top-50 ranked team), and competed in the NCAA tournament. I also trained with Dmitry Tursunov, a former top-20 ATP player.
🎾 Proven Coaching Success – With over five years of coaching experience, I’ve worked with players of all skill levels, from beginners looking to develop fundamentals to competitive players refining their game.
📈 Customized Coaching Approach – Every player is different, and I tailor my lessons to your specific goals, whether that’s improving your serve, footwork, strategy, or overall consistency.
🔥 Passionate & Results-Driven – I love helping players unlock their potential and gain confidence on the court. My lessons are engaging, structured, and designed to accelerate improvement.
🚗 Convenient & Flexible – Based in Redwood City, I’m open to driving to clients nearby for added convenience.
💰 Fair & Transparent Pricing – I offer competitive rates ($125/hr for private lessons, $150/hr for semi-private) and I’m offering 1 free lesson when you book and pay for 1 month of lessons in advance.
If you're ready to improve your game and have fun doing it, let's get started! ⏳🎾💪

I’ve been taking weekend tennis lessons with Ilya and couldn’t be happier. He’s a fantastic coach. He's patient, knowledgeable, and really focused on helping you improve. Every session is well-structured, and he gives great feedback on technique and strategy. Whether you're a beginner or looking to level up your game, I highly recommend him!
