About JP

Tennis has been my passion for 28+ years, and I love helping players of all levels improve, grow, and enjoy the game. I focus on building solid fundamentals—from footwork and technique to strategy and mental toughness—while keeping sessions fun and engaging. Seeing a player nail a new shot or gain confidence on the court is what drives me. Whether it’s competitive training or casual practice, my goal is to create a positive, energetic environment where players can develop skills, love the game, and reach their full potential.

What students say...

About Anthony

Hi, I'm Anthony! I have been playing tennis for over 20 years and coaching for nearly 8 years. I most recently worked as a pro at UPenn Racquet Club before moving back to NJ. Alongside being a USPTR certified tennis coach, I'm also deeply involved in the arts as an actor, filmmaker, and singer. Tennis coaching is my passion, but when I'm not on the court, you'll likely find me immersed in the world of cinema. I'm particularly proud of my film "ETHEREAL," which has played at various film festivals. Balancing my love for both sports and the arts is what makes my life truly vibrant and fulfilling.
