“great experience, coach jay is very professional and responsible, my kids like the class.”Hua J., parentAbout Jay-ArTennis has been my life for 30 years — as a player, a college competitor, and now as a coach who’s put in over 345 lessons helping students actually improve. My game blends Federer-style touch and feel on the one-handed backhand with the heavy, modern topspin you see from players like Alcaraz and Sinner — and that’s exactly what I bring to your lessons, whether you’re building your fundamentals or refining a competitive game.
I don’t believe in cookie-cutter lessons. Every session is built around your goals, your level, and what’s actually holding your game back — with the technology and tools (video analysis, ball machine, real match-play strategy) to back it up.
Beyond the court, you’re joining a tennis community: connect with fellow students, ask me questions directly, work through structured courses at your own pace, and get access to local clinics and events. My goal is simple — help you fall in love with this game while getting genuinely better at it.Go to profileHome competition and practice facility for UC Davis Aggie men's and women's tennis teams with 16 outdoor courts

The lesson was quite helpful in clarifying some basic forehand techniques, though I still need to work on consistency. Jay-ar's approach is steady, and I appreciate the focus on proper grip and footwork, which makes a difference. Looking forward to seeing how I improve with more practice. Still, I think a bit more emphasis on rally drills could be beneficial next time. If you're into tennis and want to really improve fundamentals, giving Jay-ar a try might be worth considering.
Starting with the absolute basics, I think Jay-ar's lesson was quite effective, especially since he emphasized building a solid foundation. Though I still need to work on my overall consistency, I appreciated how calm and focused he was throughout. I hope future lessons will help me strengthen those fundamentals further, definitely worth trying if you're aiming for steady improvement.
This coach is the real deal—well-trained from a young age, he provides high-quality tennis instruction. His classes are structured with proper warm-ups and targeted exercises, and he tailors his coaching to your needs. Patient and equipped with a variety of tools, he ensures you truly improve. Get him while he’s still affordable—I have a feeling that he’ll soon out-priced my budget 😭
