"Kenzie has been an incredible coach for Ada—so much more than just an instructor. From the very beginning, Ada looked up to her not only as a coach but as an older sister and role model. Kenzie constantly pushed Ada to reach her next level, always believing she was capable of more and refusing to let her settle. She paid close attention to the details, making sure Ada developed the right technique and strong fundamentals that would carry her far in the sport. More than anything, Kenzie encouraged her to step into tournaments with confidence, helping her grow not just as a player, but as a competitor and a young athlete with self-belief.

"I was fortunate enough to meet Jeff at the Webster Tennis Center where he was doing some organized beginner classes. I had been struggling with progressing as an intermediate player and asked Jeff for some individual instruction. I was able to work with Jeff individually for a few sessions and saw immediate improvement in my play in the transition zone. Jeff was patient, kind, and made several excellent suggestions, that have helped me to develop more consistency in my play. Jeff also helped me to re-grip my paddle and discuss ways to weight the paddle to gain better control and to diminish stress on my elbow. After a few initial sessions, I was able to set up group lessons for several of my playing partners and the feedback has been glowingly positive. Jeff is knowledgeable and approachable in his instruction and I would absolutely recommend him for anyone looking to improve their game.
