Private lessons develop motor skills, coordination, and a strong foundation for long-term success. Learning at a young age is ideal so the technical & tactical habits are embedded at an early age.

It went great. Margot absolutely Emily and had lots of fun! She was also doing really well for her first lesson, could hit forehands, backhands and volleys over the net fairly consistently. It as a really good lesson 🙂 We’ll definitely be seeing Emily every Monday.
Rob is an excellent technical coach. He has been coaching my 8-year old daughter Alyssa for 4 months. She keeps receiving a strong technical foundation in her strokes and movement. Rob is great at helping young players to refine their technical and tactical checkpoints
I am really happy with Coach Matt’s approach. The boys are happy and looking forward to be coached by him.
Rob has been a brilliant coach for my son, his ability to connect and communicate to a child is top class. His dedication to his craft and patience is amazing. Thoroughly recommend Rob.
We have had such a positive experience with both our kids (5 & 6 yo) at Bluegum. Coach Jeremy has really fostered their love for tennis while also working meticulously with their technique.Â
A big thanks to Mitch for being such a fantastic coach – we really appreciate it.
The coaching has been fantastic, and I can see the skills improving. Thank you for the great experience.
Meg is such a lovely coach, and I really felt like I made some progress even though it was my first lesson. Excited to keep playing!
It was a jolly tough drill session in 35 degree heat! Chris is an inspiring, knowledgeable and really energetic, super coach. My team really enjoys our training sessions with him too. Again, many thanks!
Thanks to Matteo and the team at Tennis Excellence for their ongoing coaching efforts!
