Rachel is very knowledgeable and really knows her stuff! She can hit the dang ball and gives super helpful tips. This girl does NOT miss so if you’re looking for someone with the consistency of a wall - she is your gal. Not only does Rachel make our lessons fun but you can tell how passionate she is about helping others and how much she cares about her players progress. She is very encouraging and patient!

Coach Rachel is so awesome! She is very enthusiastic and encouraging. I love hitting with her because she can do everything from hitting hard to hitting consistent. She knows how to give advice on match play but also technique. She fixed my kick serve and explains things in a simple and easy way to understand! She is a great coach!! Love her

Rachel is a top coach. She demonstrates a great understanding of the game and seamlessly translates that knowledge in coaching. I wasn’t the biggest tennis fan before taking lessons with Rachel, but now I’ve learned to appreciate and enjoy it.
Allie Z
I have known Rachel for a long time now, and her passion for tennis translates excellently to her coaching ability! Not only can she help improve your game, but she'll make you love it too.
