Hi! I'm Nicole, a former junior tournament player. I have over 5 years coaching all ages and levels, from beginners who are just learning the basic strokes to tournament players working on strategy, conditioning, and mental toughness. Should you wish to train with me, I will make a personalized lesson plan to help you achieve your specific goals according to your level, experience, and desired time commitment. As a coach, I believe it is important to develop all parts of a tennis player. Sportsmanship, mental toughness, and strategy are as integral to a strong player just as much as the strokes and physical elements of the sport. If that sounds like something you are interested in for yourself or for your children, please reach out. Tennis provides lifelong rewards, and I look forward to being a part of your tennis journey.
