Semi-Private Tennis Lessons West Hollywood
Want to train with a friend, spouse, sibling or teammate?
Semi-private tennis lessons allow two players to work with one coach while sharing the lesson.

Improve Your Tennis Rally
A major goal for many recreational and developing players is becoming more consistent.
A good rally requires control of:
- Height
- Depth
- Direction
- Pace
- Spin
- Recovery position
West Hollywood tennis lessons can incorporate progressive rally drills that teach players how to control the ball and maintain longer exchanges.
As consistency improves, players can work on changing direction, moving opponents and creating opportunities to attack.
Improve Your Tennis Technique
Good technique provides the foundation for a player’s development.
Lessons can work on:
- Forehand
- Backhand
- Serve
- Return
- Volley
- Overhead
- Footwork
Technical changes should have a purpose.
The objective is to develop strokes that are reliable and effective when the player moves from drills into actual points.
Learn How to Play Points
Many players can hit good shots during a feeding drill but struggle when they have to construct an actual point.
Our coaching can help players understand how to connect their shots together.
Players can learn how to:
- Start the point with the serve or return.
- Establish a rally.
- Control direction and depth.
- Recognize opportunities to attack.
- Defend when necessary.
- Recover after each shot.
- Finish the point.
This progression helps players move from simply hitting tennis balls to actually understanding how to play tennis.

Live Ball training emphasizes movement, rallying, reactions and decision-making.
Players are placed into situations where they need to move, react and make decisions rather than simply hit stationary balls.
