"Honestly, I felt like the lesson really hit the mark, especially with how Fin emphasized the importance of consistency, which is something I’ve struggled with. Although I still have some technical adjustments to make, I left feeling more aware of my stance and movement on court. Still, I think with a bit more practice, I could definitely see noticeable progress. If you're aiming to fine-tune your game, it might be worth giving Fin a shot.

"I have been playing tennis for about 6 years and took lessons from a different coach before I met Mo.. I learned the basics and that was basically it. I started taking lessons with Mo about 2 years ago and I am so thankful that i did.. Mo is a Great Coach. He has taught me so much. My only complaint is that I didn't start with him from the beginning. I learned bad habits that I had to change. Mo had to start me from the beginning as if it was my first day. Surprisingly it didn't take too long to learn the correct Way. Things that seem difficult Mo makes it easy to understand. I highly recommend him as a Coach sometimes therapist too! Tennis is also a mental game, Mo is there to talk it out and has really helped me get out of My Head, he's given me the confidence and Made feel that I am Just as Good or better than my opponent. I definitely have a lot more to learn and I Just want to continue to get better . It feels really good to know that I'm in the right hands...
