About your tennis coach

Eight Plus years of experience, coaching mostly kids and teenagers. With a focus that every person learns differently, I personalize and adjust to each individual. I use the same approach at heart when it comes to tennis, but when it comes to explaining it, I get creative. I try to bring the best out of every student, with the hopes that they can become the best version of themselves on and of the court.

Accomplishments

🎾4.5 NTRP
🏅Experienced Player
Beginner training plan
Your first lessonI don’t give any instructions at first, and just let the person do what comes naturally. Then, we build from there!
Lesson 11+We focus more on playing, and rallying. Self diagnosing, and I like using the Socrates Method, where I ask questions. Allowing them to think, and learn problem solving in a stressful fast paced environment
Lesson 4-10Here we start adding movement, and more advanced techniques without forgetting the first three weeks.
Lesson 2-3We get more into the fundamentals, keep building a swing motion. Bring that mind and body connection.
Youth players
Working with kidsWhen it comes to kids, I focus on keeping it fun. I want them to keep wanting to do tennis. I believe that if they enjoy it, learning is just inevitable. The focus is more on building hand eye coordination, and mind body connection.
Working with teenagersWhen it comes to teenagers, I don’t really change the approach from kids. Keeping it fun, the thing that changes is I can ask a bit more from them. They have a better understanding of mind body, and we can go into more complex movements, and techniques. Also, adjusting to the game, strengthening the mind. Being able to go through the ups, and downs of the game, but not letting it take over the mind.
What you need to bringA racket, and a water bottle
What I can bringI have extra rackets if needed, cones, weights, and all the basics

“My three boys have taken tennis lessons from Gus for three years (now ages 15, 13, and 10), and we have had a great experience! He is really good at teaching kids and knows how to get down on their level and meet them where they are. He also makes it fun so they don’t ever get bored. He takes pride in teaching them the right form and proper skills of the game. He loves what he does and it shows!”
Steve
"Gus is a solid coach who knows exactly how to push you and keep things challenging, but he does it in a way that actually makes you want to work harder. He’s both technical and creative with his approach, which has led to a huge improvement in my play since I started with him. Definitely check him out if you're looking to level up!"
Copper
“I cannot recommend Coach Gus enough! He has completely revolutionized my game, taking me from a beginner to a competitive player. His coaching style is motivating, clear, and he tailors his lessons so I fully understand everything he’s teaching!”
Brooke
Coach Gus is great with my daughter. He really focuses on getting to know her interests and apply them to her lessons in a unique way!
Alex
My son is a beginner when it comes to tennis and can be a little shy when it comes to meeting new people. Gus was able to relate to him and bring him out of his shell. 100% recommend lessons with Gus and we will be signing up for more.
