Play Tennis at W.P. Jones Tennis Park

Hi, I’m Ava Hrastar—a current professional tennis player and recent Division I college graduate(Auburn University) with about 15 years of experience on the court. Tennis has been a lifelong passion, and through years of training, competing, and growing as an athlete, I’ve developed not only my game but also a deep understanding of what it takes to succeed—both physically and mentally. I’m excited to share that passion and knowledge with others.

"Ava's lesson was quite effective. Her attentiveness stood out, and her instructions felt clear and confident, making me feel optimistic about getting back in the game. Still, I hope we can continue to improve my front, backslice, and serve as we go along. If you're after a coach who really pays attention to the details and keeps lessons engaging, Ava might be worth trying.

A lifelong player with a passion for both sports and academics, I've thrived on the field and in the classroom. As a Varsity competitor and All City Academic Athlete, I've honed my skills and earned recognition for my dedication. I have passion and natural ability to teach in a way that makes learning fun and easy. I teach not only on the court, but also off the court. From competing in T2 to making waves in ALTA as the Atlanta City Championship runner-up, I've embraced challenges and simplified complexities, earning praise from friends and family for my knack for making the difficult seem easy to learn from.

"My lesson with Sanjay was pretty productive, honestly. It felt like we really covered some useful points, though I think more training could help me get even better. Still, I appreciate the straightforward approach and am hopeful about future lessons with him.

With over 40 years of passion for tennis, I’ve dedicated my career to helping youth and adult players unlock their full potential.

"The instructor is very kind and explains everything thoroughly step-by-step.

I’m a collegiate tennis player and PTR certified coach with over 5 years of experience in teaching and training. My background as a player, combined with my certification and coaching experience, equips me to offer valuable insights and guidance to players of all levels. I’m passionate about helping others improve their game and reach their full potential on the court.

"Clayton was punctual and extremely attentive to detail. His ability to find weaknesses in my game and immediately provide solutions was extremely helpful. He was able to tailor my lesson directly to my needs and explained the tennis theory in an understandable way for a beginner. 10/10 would recommend.
