I would highly recommend taking lessons with Maurice! We've made big strides after only a few lessons. He is very knowledgeable, but also patient. I'm really happy with the progress I've made so far!

It's been over 15 years since I have picked up a racquet and Maurice was remarkable at reminding me about the fundamentals with his patience and teaching skills. At the end of our lessons, he plays with me to go over what we learned that day. Can't wait to continue our lessons this summer!!! What an amazing coach!!

It's been a pleasure working with Coach Reese. We've worked with a variety of private coaches but Coach Reese has elevated my daughter's. game in a very short time! Looking forward to continuing our sessions as she grows.

Beginner training plan

Your first lessonIn our first lesson, we start with a warm-up and a brief discussion of your goals. I assess your grip, stance, swing mechanics, and footwork. We focus on basic forehand and backhand fundamentals, rally consistency, and an introduction to serve technique. You receive immediate feedback and tips for improvement, setting the foundation for future sessions. This session is designed to build confidence, identify strengths and weaknesses, and create a personalized plan to guide your progress.

Lesson 11+From the eleventh lesson onward, training becomes highly individualized. We focus on advanced shot execution under pressure, tactical point construction, and mental resilience. Sessions involve situational drills, live match simulations, and fine-tuning of your serve and return strategies. The aim is to refine your game for competitive play, address specific weaknesses, and further develop your unique playing style. This phase ensures continuous growth and peak performance in matches.
