Jim was great with both our kids. They were fairly new to tennis and after a few weeks they showed great improvement.

Im a 3.5 level tennis player and needed help with my strokes and serve. He helped me develop a kick serve and improve my footwork and doubles court positioning. His experience as both a coach and player really shows.

I played tennis in high school but started up again after years of being away. I wanted a hitting coach since I don’t enjoy coaches that just feed you balls. He incorporated mini tennis games and made my reentry back into the game really fun.
