Bio: Hello my name is Allen and I am a local Milwaukee tennis coach with over 40 years of playing experience and over 11 years of teaching experience! After I retired as a Senior Graphic Designer in 2009, I turned my attention to another life-long passion, tennis! Since then, I have earned three gold as well as five silver medals in tennis while participating in the Senior Olympics. I have also been a boys and girls tennis coach at Brookfield Central High School since 2013 and served as the head tennis coach for Mount Mary University located in Milwaukee (NCAA Division 3) in 2016. I am currently employed as a tennis instructor for the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. Tennis is great fun! It’s a lifetime sport that brings many rich benefits. Learning to play tennis well brings a sense of fulfillment and self-confidence. I am offering fun private tennis lessons, semi-private tennis lessons, group tennis lessons and hitting only sessions for all ages (kids, teens, adults, seniors) and for all skill levels (beginner, intermediate, advanced). So whether you need to work on some specifics like your forehand, backhand, volley, serve, service return, overhead, drop shot, approach shot, footwork, singles strategy or doubles strategy-I would be more than happy to help you out with your tennis game!

Bio: As a lifelong tennis enthusiast, my journey with the sport began at the age of six. I've always believed that tennis is much more than just a physical activity; it's a discipline that cultivates mental strength, sharpens strategic thinking, and builds resilience. One of my greatest joys is sharing my passion for tennis with others, regardless of their skill level. I find immense satisfaction in the camaraderie and shared pursuit of improvement that comes from playing with people of all experience levels. For me, the tennis court is a place where connections are forged, skills are honed, and the love of the game unites us all.
