We help you find the best tennis coach for your needs. Filter by skill level, group size, and location. Browse our list of tennis coaches that meet your criteria and watch their intro videos to determine if the coach is the right match for you. Our tennis coaches are vetted, reviewed, and rated to make your decision easier. If you're having trouble finding the best tennis lessons near you, reach out to our lessons coordinator by clicking the "Have any questions?" button at the top right of the page.

2.

3.

Instantly connect with your tennis coach.

Get in touch with your tennis coach immediately with the TeachMe.To mobile app. It's total free and available on iPhone and Android. Our app is the one-stop shop for managing your tennis lessons on our platform.

It's really that simple.

What to expect when you take a Tennis lesson in Santa Monica

The first lesson for a beginner player

R

Coach Richard

tennis coach

Players 3.0 to 4.0. We will adapt you to warm-up drills similar to what you would see in all colleges. This will allow us to see how comfortable you are on court. And based on what I see in your on-court abilities will determine how fast we move you into tiebreaks and/or sets. We'll discuss what things you would like to improve on and work those into what I call micro drills.

Coach Ali

In the first lesson, I evaluate the player's technique, footwork, and overall consistency through rally-based drills. I also ask about their goals and experience to tailor the training plan.
