“great experience, coach jay is very professional and responsible, my kids like the class.”Hua J., parent

About Jay-ArTennis has been my life for 30 years — as a player, a college competitor, and now as a coach who’s put in over 345 lessons helping students actually improve. My game blends Federer-style touch and feel on the one-handed backhand with the heavy, modern topspin you see from players like Alcaraz and Sinner — and that’s exactly what I bring to your lessons, whether you’re building your fundamentals or refining a competitive game.
I don’t believe in cookie-cutter lessons. Every session is built around your goals, your level, and what’s actually holding your game back — with the technology and tools (video analysis, ball machine, real match-play strategy) to back it up.
Beyond the court, you’re joining a tennis community: connect with fellow students, ask me questions directly, work through structured courses at your own pace, and get access to local clinics and events. My goal is simple — help you fall in love with this game while getting genuinely better at it.Go to profile
