“Honestly, Ethan's lesson was quite good and I really liked that he likes very much. The lesson highlight really stood out, and I think with a bit more practice, I could improve even further. Though I’d probably benefit from some variety in drills, his calm approach kept me comfortable throughout. Still, I feel confident about keeping at it with Ethan's guidance.”Lili B., student

About Tom👋 Hi, I’m Coach Tom (Tom Ziv) — a private tennis coach in Los Angeles, California.
I competed at a high ATP level, ranked inside the ATP top hundreds, and was #3 nationally.
After my playing career, I became a coach for one reason:
I love helping people unlock levels they didn’t think they had.
❌ most lessons fail for a simple reason:
there’s no plan. It’s just hitting… and hoping.
Now I coach adults and juniors who want real improvement — real results!
My coaching style:
✅ sharp technical details (so you know exactly what to fix)
✅ footwork + patterns that translate to match play
✅ strategy + confidence under pressure
✅ high-energy sessions (cardio + intensity)
✅ and yes… music — because the vibe matters
My philosophy is simple: a real plan creates real results!Go to profile
