About AshwinHey, I’m Ashwin! I’m an RSPA Level 1 Certified Tennis Instructor and 4.0 NTRP player with 20 years of playing experience.
I work primarily with adult beginners and intermediate players who want to build confidence, improve consistency, and feel more comfortable playing recreational matches. My coaching approach combines clear, actionable instruction with high-repetition drills and game-based practice, helping you understand not just how to hit the ball, but how to use your skills on the court.
Whether you’re picking up a racquet for the first time or working to improve your groundstrokes, serve, footwork, or shot selection, I’ll tailor each lesson to your goals and current level!
Want to learn with a spouse, friend, or hitting partner? Group lessons accommodate up to four participants, giving you an opportunity to practice realistic rally situations while splitting the cost.
Bring your racquet and energy. I’ll bring the tennis balls, training equipment, and a clear plan for your session. 🎾Go to profileAshwin R.

“That lesson with Edward was quite helpful. I appreciated how he explained different strokes, which made the techniques feel more approachable for me. Though I still need to improve my footwork, I left feeling pretty encouraged about future progress. Still, I’m optimistic that with more lessons, I’ll keep getting better at reading the game, and Edward's guidance definitely made a difference. If you’re looking for someone who offers clear, practical advice, Edward’s lessons are worth considering.”Brittany E., student
