"Great coach overall. Looking forward to working with him in the future.
I’ve been involved with the game of tennis for 21 years now. I was as a top national junior player in singles and doubles. After a professional playing career was cut short by injury, I turned my attention to helping others improve and find a love for the game! I’ve coached for 10 years with all levels of player, ranging from top ranked national junior players to adults or young child picking up a racquet for the first time My focus is developing players with strong fundamentals and a passion for the game. Whether you’re looking to raise your game to new levels, or just get out on the court to have fun and break a sweat, I look forward to elevating your tennis journey together!
"Great coach! He is very attentive to details and was able to identify and correct issues with my technique right away. I noticed an immediate improvement in my backhand after just one lesson. We also worked on my serve, and I learned a lot in a short amount of time.
Growing up in Canada, I competed in tennis throughout my childhood and won the Canadian nationals at age 13! I consistently ranked within the top three in Canada throughout my junior years, which led to a full scholarship to play Division 1 NCAA tennis at the University of Virginia. I competed all four years alongside my identical twin sister – what an experience! After graduating, I realized my passion for tennis and fitness, and now I have over 15 years of experience coaching. I love connecting with, motivating, and helping both juniors and adults achieve their tennis goals. I'm also passing on my love for the game to my two daughters, ages 10 and 13, who are both nationally ranked! They've progressed through red, orange, and green ball and are currently competing in junior USTA tournaments here in Texas. We live in East Dallas, and I can't wait to help you with your tennis game!

"I used to be a defensive tackle (DT) in a NCAA football team. When I first started working with coach Howard, I was 5'10" and 245lbs. I was really committed to tennis. Sometimes I'd drive an hour one way for lessons twice during the weekend. I soaked up everything coach Howard taught me, like a sponge, especially working on my serve and return. After about 9 months, coach suggested I start playing locally instead of driving that distance. I jumped right in and started playing in a 2.5 league. Within 15 months of learning from coach Howard, I was down to 200 pounds. I am 180 pounds now.

Dallas tennis runs almost year-round thanks to a long warm season and a dense public-court network. The city's tennis pros (also called tennis coaches or tennis instructors) teach almost exclusively on outdoor hard courts at municipal parks - Preston Hollow, Cole Park, Reverchon, Caruth, Abbott, and Fairfax all have lighted public courts within a 15-minute drive of central Dallas. Of the 6 active coaches, one is the former lead coach at the Rafa Nadal Academy with ITF certification, and several others bring 20-plus years of competitive playing or tournament-tier coaching backgrounds. Hard-court surface is the default, which mirrors what you'll play in USTA league and most regional tournaments, so what you learn here translates directly to match play. Summer heat (June-September) pushes most sessions into early-morning or evening slots; October through May is peak coaching season with comfortable midday temperatures.
| Level | Frequency | Duration | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Beginner | Weekly | 60 min | First 4-8 sessions build the foundation - grip, stance, forehand, backhand, ready position, basic serve motion. |
| Intermediate | Every 1-2 weeks | 60-90 min | USTA 3.0-3.5 players work biweekly on targeted skills - second serve, backhand slice, doubles positioning, transition game. |
| Advanced | Every 1-2 weeks | 90 min | 4.0-plus and tournament players run 90-minute sessions focused on specific shots and match-play simulation, paired with regular live match play between lessons. |
