"My son and I met Coach David and his family at a tennis tournament in Green Cove Springs, FL. We exchanged numbers and we became friends through tennis playing and fellowship. And eventually my son, Brennan, wanted to stop getting lessons from His Coach at Oakleaf and wanted to start learning from Coach David. Prior to knowing Coach David, my son had won zero championships or titles. And after entering a few throughout the summer and fall of 2025, in late October 2025 my son finally won 1st place—ironically, at Oakleaf—during a USTA weekend-long tournament that they were holding for junior players all over the south eastern region of the United States. Brennan actually only lost one game that entire weekend (6-0,6-0; 6-0,6-0; 6-0,6-1) and his UTR ranking has constantly increased ever since our very first month of taking lessons with Coach David.

My teaching experience includes: cardio tennis, women’s tennis teams (A-D), children ages 4-17 and coaching high school tennis. If you enjoy tennis and want to learn new techniques or simply learn the sport it is a joy to coach! My teaching style is based on personal needs, if you want to play for fun then we’ll have a great time learning and improving strokes. If you are looking to improve at a competitive level I do offer footwork drills and fast paced drills.

"Coach Sarah is an excellent tennis coach! As an adult new to the sport, I felt intimidated and insecure at my first lesson. However, Sarah's kind and supportive manner put me at ease. She spent time explaining the fundamentals and progression necessary to learn the sport. She also took time to analyze my abilities and catered our lessons to my individual development. Her patience and enthusiasm made learning tennis fun and kept me coming back for more! Whether a beginner or an advanced player, Sarah has the knowledge, patience and enthusiasm to coach her students to success!
