About
Hi, I’m Yan - a former Division 1 tennis player and the founder of Windy City Tennis. I offer primarily private lessons in Chicago and am also developing small group sessions for players of all ages and levels. My goal is to make every lesson both fun and highly productive. I focus on building strong technical fundamentals while helping players develop confidence, consistency, and a deeper understanding of the game. Whether you’re a complete beginner, looking to refine your technique, or preparing for competitive play, I tailor every lesson to your goals and learning style. I’ve worked with juniors, adults, and competitive players, and I always aim to create a positive environment where students can challenge themselves and enjoy the process of improving.

Really good coach, he identified the mistakes with my form and helped me fix them from the first session. Already feel like my game has improved a ton since my first lesson with Yan

I have been training with Coach Yan for only two lessons and have seen a tremendous improvement in my tennis skills. Yan has a keen eye for detail and provides personalized feedback that is both constructive and encouraging.

I highly recommend Yan to anyone looking to elevate their
tennis game, whether you are a beginner or an advanced player.
