📹 FREE SESSION VIDEO RECORDING AND FEEDBACK INCLUDED📹 I've had a lifelong love for tennis, starting from a young age and continuing through my college years on a tennis scholarship at SCSU. Along the way, I've shared my passion by coaching juniors at Lyme Shores Racquet Club and teaching Private lessons regularly for the past 3 years. I’m located in New Haven, CT so I’ve had the pleasure of working with many Yale students, employees, and various student unions. Any questions? Feel free to ask! 👍
"The lesson really stood out to me because Rahni’s tips on rally consistency helped me execute shots more smoothly, though I still need to work on timing. Still, I feel more confident hitting cross-court shots now and look forward to practicing what I learned.
