What students say...

"Coach Mike’s deep understanding of technique and mechanics is impressive. He can dissect your strokes with precision and then show you exactly how it’s done – because he’s still playing at a high level himself. His lessons feel like a masterclass with someone who knows what it takes to compete. I have trained with a handful of coaches throughout my junior career, but non of them put their heart into my game like coach. Don’t think I would have as much success without him.
