It's such a worthwhile experience to take lessons with Paul. I started as a total beginner (didn't know how to hold a racket), and am now ripping backends down the line (it's so satisfying). Group clinics helped me meet new people, and gain experience playing for points under pressure. Besides the quality of his technical instruction, Paul really cares about your improvement. For instance, it was a bit nerve wracking for me to join a group as a beginner, so we worked on the mental aspects of competition. And now I'm comfortable hopping into a doubles match or hitting with new people. I became a confident tennis player in a few months because of his coaching!

Tennis with Paul is an extraordinary experience. He teaches form, form, form and builds skill through lots of drill repetition until strokes becomes habit. His demeanor is calm and encouraging --- he builds confidence. My daughter and I are big fans of Paul's 1:1 instruction and his group clinics. Very satisfied customers!

Paul is an awesome coach. I've had 6 lessons with him so far, and made a lot of progress. Paul is great at analyzing your strokes and giving pointers for where your technique needs improvement, as well as discussing tennis strategy. I've even used his strategy tips to win some matches! I'm looking forward to continuing to improve my game with his help!

My fiancée and I have been taking lessons from Paul for several weeks now. We’ve been having a lot of fun and definitely getting better at tennis. Highly recommend Paul for lessons especially if you’re in the marina, super convenient!

Paul has provided a lot of insight into my strokes and technique. He makes the lessons fun, encouraging, impactful, and makes you build up a sweat!
Paul went above and beyond by giving me suggestions and direction when I started looking for a new racquet.
I would recommend and have recommended him to anyone of any skill level looking to up their game.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Donations of i$150 private and $75/clinics that run 90min. For new players, I do an initial assessment of your game, reviewing all aspects from groundstrokes, serve and volleys, and assessing your knowledge of strategy/tactics.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
I started as an assistant coach to the head tennis pro at my tennis club at age 13. I learned everything from him, then moved on and started teaching private lessons to juniors at age 15 and haven't stopped growing since then.
What types of customers have you worked with?
I have worked with beginners new to the sport, as well as many children starting at age 5 years old. About half of my students are more intermediate to advanced.
