Private Lessons & Coaches in Kent, WA

From competing at the top of Division I lineups to coaching at elite academies for aspiring professionals, I offer a rare, inside perspective on what it takes to reach the next level in tennis. I specialize in developing high-level juniors who are ready to separate themselves from their peers. I’ve been in the environments that produce top performers—and I know exactly what habits, training methods, and mindset create real breakthroughs. While I also coach adults and beginners, my core passion is working with driven players who feel stuck and helping them break through their limits. My coaching philosophy is simple: high standards, smart structure, and performance that shows up when it matters.

"I was already playing at a high level in a league when I started training with Dmitry, but I wanted to improve my overall game and refine my style. He immediately identified what I needed to work on and tailored the training to push me past my plateau. My movement, shot selection, and consistency improved, and I feel much more confident in competitive matches. He treats you like a serious athlete and holds you to a high standard, which is exactly what I was looking for.

"Martin, I just wanted to say thank you for the outstanding training sessions with Evelyn and Teddy this summer. Your ability to push them outside of their comfort zones while continuing to build their confidence is something I really appreciate. I love how intentional you are about having them use both feet and not letting them take the easy way out. Even more than that, you stay patient and keep working with them until the movement becomes muscle memory instead of something they have to think through every time. Great coaches don’t just teach skills, they build confidence, discipline, and belief. You’re exceptional at your craft, and it’s obvious how much you care about helping kids reach their potential. Thanks for investing in Evelyn and Teddy and helping them become better players every session. We appreciate you!

My tennis journey began in high school and has never ended. My college courses were intense and became my focus away from sports. During summer breaks I took time to learn more sports including soccer and basketball while maintaining my tennis skills. The past few years have been interesting as I have picked up a tennis routine again in the midst of covid and would like to share my passion for tennis.
