"Derrick is a great golf teacher and all around good human. I was a college athlete who needed a challenge now that I was over 50. I had played golf a few times over the years, but never seriously. I took lessons with Derrick and fell in love with this crazy game of golf. I’m in my second season of consistently playing and see Derrick a few times each year for tune-ups. He always knows how to explain what I need to do to fix my swing or stance. I HIGHLY recommend Derrick if you want to learn golf or just tune-up your skills.

I was born and raised in Zimbabwe, and my passion for tennis began at the age of 8. I attended Bluefield University in Virginia, where I balanced my academics with my love for coaching. Before college, I was a full-time coach at Mantas Tennis Academy, one of Africa’s top tennis academies, where I focused on coaching red and yellow ball players (ages 3-9). During my college summers, I expanded my experience by coaching green dot and yellow ball players (ages 10-17) at Camp Chipinaw and Twin Cities Tennis Camp in Minneapolis.

"Very Informative instruction especially with the kids. Highly recommend Coach Tanaka

In addition to my extensive background, I have honed my skills by competing at a collegiate level, where I developed a strong foundation in both individual and team dynamics.
