"I was a complete beginner when I first met Elijah 3 months ago. Very quickly he was able to assist me with getting the right equipment and oriented me with ease. Coach Elijah breaks down all the components of the game and is patient yet firm in his approach. He also has great supplemental equipment to fast-track training ground strokes, footwork, etc. He helped me develop a one-handed backhand that actually has “fire power” and I feel much more confident going to the tennis court.

📹 FREE SESSION VIDEO RECORDING AND FEEDBACK INCLUDED📹 I've had a lifelong love for tennis, starting from a young age and continuing through my college years on a tennis scholarship at SCSU. Along the way, I've shared my passion by coaching juniors at Lyme Shores Racquet Club and teaching Private lessons regularly for the past 3 years. I’m located in New Haven, CT so I’ve had the pleasure of working with many Yale students, employees, and various student unions. Any questions? Feel free to ask! 👍
"The lesson really stood out to me because Rahni’s tips on rally consistency helped me execute shots more smoothly, though I still need to work on timing. Still, I feel more confident hitting cross-court shots now and look forward to practicing what I learned.

I play collegiate tennis at St. Lawrence University and play two singles there ending my season with a 8-3 record.

I teach tennis lessons to anyone and everyone. Never touched a racket? No problem! Do you want to go up a level, make the high school team, or be able to play with friends? Kids, high schoolers, adults, couples, and groups. I love tennis! USPTA level 2 Certified, Tennis Serve Specialist. Worked with Rick Macci (coach of 5 world #1 ones including Williams sisters and Andy Roddick), Jose Higuras (head of U.S. high performance program), Jeff Salzsentein (former top 100 player), Hans Podlipnik (Wimbledon QFist), and many others. Head high school coach for 11 years, active tournament player, patient teacher. Passionate about helping underserved kids throughout Seattle learn tennis and have organized and connected with many initiatives to do so. My goal is to help you achieve your goals whether that be improving technique or beginning to learn to play. To that extent, I am fairly flexible in my approach. For beginners, I focus on technique, proper grips, and generating topspin. To do this, I focus on hand feeding a lot of balls early on to develop proper technique and to train the muscle memory. Specifically, I teach a semi-western forehand, two-handed backhand, volley fundamentals, split stepping, proper footwork and serve mechanics. I also work with students who have one-handed backhands. I am a big believer in putting in a lot of time on the serve. For more experienced players, I will work with you to either identify areas for improvement or to work on areas you’ve identified you would like to improve.
"Irvin was patient and helpful with a beginning student, and we look forward to working with him more in the future.
