Oh, I’d say Napoleon’s lesson was quite helpful, especially in refining my serve technique. Though I’d love if there was more emphasis on rally drills, but still, it was a pretty good experience overall and I’ll probably try another lesson soon.

Coach Napoleon has honestly made such a big difference in my tennis game. He taught me how to hit on the rise, which totally changed how I play, and he also worked with me to fix my technique so I could be more confident and tactical on the court. He was always super supportive, patient and explained things in a way they would click for me.
What I really appreciated was how he made our group feel like a real team. He came up with fun ice breakers and little games that got us talking and laughing together. Even though we play singles and doubles, it started to feel like we were all playing for each other.
Because of his coaching, we made it all the way to CIF as both a team and in individual competition and we made it far. I was proud to make it to Individuals CIF myself, along with three of my teammates. It was an amazing experience that I’ll never forget, and none of it would’ve been possible without him.
Beginner training plan
Your first lessonOur first lessons will be about getting comfortable with the tennis racket and balls while learning the fundamentals of the game. We’ll work through specific drills designed to build proper mechanics and form. Each session will be progression-based, ensuring players develop skills step by step with a strong foundation. Eventually leading into basic ground strokes foundations.
Lesson 11+As players continue to improve, lessons will focus on refining mechanics and technique while introducing rallying and match play. We’ll also emphasize strategies for self-improvement, helping players learn how to make adjustments and continue developing their skills during lessons and beyond.
Lesson 4-10During lessons 4–10, the focus will be on consistency and technique. Students will continue developing their strokes through structured drills, ensuring steady improvement with each session. As players progress, we’ll introduce new skills such as serving and volleys to expand their overall game.
Lesson 2-3In the following 2–3 lessons, we’ll continue to build on the fundamentals introduced in the first session. Players will take on more challenging drills that focus on consistency, timing, and control. As skills progress, we’ll place greater emphasis on developing strong groundstrokes, adjusting the pace and difficulty based on each player’s growth.
Youth players
Working with teenagersWhen coaching teenagers, it’s important to use the right drills, equipment, and teaching methods tailored to each player. Lessons will be adapted based on the player’s athleticism, coordination, and experience to ensure effective development and a positive learning environment.
