Hi, my name is Aaron. Tennis has been a lifelong passion of mine. Growing up in Northern Virginia, I started playing when I was just four years old. By the time I was a teenager, I was ranked Top 5 in Virginia for my age group (15–18) and finished as a Top 20 junior in the Mid-Atlantic region, competing in national tournaments across the country. Along the way, I trained with some of the best coaches in the U.S., including a mentor who also worked with Frances Tiafoe during his junior development at College Park. In 2018, I moved to California to play collegiate tennis at California Lutheran University (CLU), where I competed for four years and served as team captain my senior year, reaching an 11 UTR. Off the court, I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Business and Sports Management, and I recently completed my MBA. I’ve been coaching part- and full-time since 2021, working with players of all ages and skill levels. My goal as a coach is to make the game enjoyable, while helping players build strong fundamentals, improve strategy, and develop confidence on the court. Whether you’re a beginner picking up a racquet for the first time or an experienced player aiming to sharpen your edge, I’m excited to help you take your game to the next level!

"The lesson with Aaron was quite good, mainly because he’s very patient and attentive. Still, I think there's room to push my technique a bit further, but honestly, his steady approach made the whole experience quite helpful. If you're after a teacher who genuinely listens and keeps things calm, Aaron might be a solid choice.

As a College tennis player, I have successfully honed my skills on and off the tennis court and I now help students gain that same knowledge and skill by sharing what I’ve learned in my past 4 years of training with former D1 Players, I'm dedicated to enhancing your tennis game through my experience and guidance.

"Hector is awesome. He really knows his tennis stuff, especially when it comes to racket strings. Super helpful and patient, making each lesson fun. He breaks down techniques clearly and tailor his coaching to my needs. If you're looking to up your tennis game, I definitely recommend Hector. He’s got the skills to help you improve and the knowledge to geek out about tennis equipment too.

I'm passionate about sharing my love for tennis with players of all levels. As an experienced player with 9 years of playing experience, I bring a wealth of knowledge and a dedication to helping you reach your full potential on the court. Let's work together to refine your game in a fun, supportive environment.

""I have been practicing at Dimitar Tennis Academy from day one, and I am proud to say that I have made the right decision staying there. Dimitar is a very experienced coach who gives each player lots of personal attention, and also pushes them to utilize every second they spend on the court. Dimitar Tennis Academy offers a perfect combination of mental and physical training that prepares a player well for an upcoming tournament. It is also a place where any level of player can practice and rapidly improve. Over my years at DTA, I have felt my game solidify and consistently improve. Also, I have seen many others around me improve at a rate I didn’t think was possible. A great thing about the courts at Hilton Beachfront Resort is that they are a few hundred feet away from the beach. Their location really gives each player a more enjoyable time out on the court. On top of my game improving from training with Dimitar, practicing at DTA has also made me a better person. I believe that anybody who decides to train at Dimitar Tennis Academy will experience the best tennis program in Santa Barbara and will also become a better individual." (Peter Jivkov)
