Private Tennis Lessons & Coaches in Herricks, NY

"My passion for tennis ignited on the college courts and has only grown stronger in my 16 years of coaching. I'm dedicated to fostering a love for the game in players of all levels, from beginners to those seeking to refine their skills. Let's work together to unlock your full potential on the court."

I am a recent Georgetown University graduate and former Division I lacrosse player with a lifelong passion for sports. I have played tennis for most of my life and love competing, teaching, and helping others improve their game. I have several years of experience coaching young athletes and enjoy working with players of all skill levels. My goal is to make each session competitive, positive, and fun while helping players become more confident on the court.

I am a recent D1 tennis graduate with experience playing both singles and doubles. I also have coaching experience working with both kids and adults at the Meadow Club in Southampton. I like to make lessons fun and personalized while helping players improve their technique, movement, consistency, and confidence. With my competitive experience, I can also help with match strategy, positioning, and learning how to play smarter in both singles and doubles.

I've grown up playing tennis since age 4, climbed up to a top 50 player in texas U16, reached a 10 UTR and played line 1 for my Varsity HS team. Went to Ucla and began coaching over 15 kids. I coached kids of all skill levels, but my style of coaching mainly benefits kids who are looking to hit a lot of balls and play points/sets. Obviously I tailor my coaching to all skill levels, but those looking for more intense hitting will benefit more.

I’m a local tennis pro passionate about helping players of all ages and skill levels enhance their game. Based in Greenwich, CT, I coach at local high schools and work with recreational players to refine their skills and boost their enjoyment of the sport. Through personalized drills, match play analysis, and tailored physical conditioning, I provide detailed feedback and create customized training plans to improve agility, accuracy, and overall performance. Whether you're aiming to sharpen your baseline game, enhance your serve, or dominate at the net, my program is designed to deliver tangible results and success on the court.

"JD has been coaching my 2 kids for some time now, and they are currently outperforming their opponents in the junior leagues. They feel so confident after every session!
