Reviews for coaches at Marie Reed Recreation Center

Esther E.Verified βœ“
Level: Beginnerβ€’Lessons taken: 25β€’Verified βœ“
That lesson with Manny was quite helpful, especially since we focused a lot on my goals and my serve. I appreciated the flexibility he gave regarding my grip and foot position, which made a difference. The review of forehand and backhand techniques, plus some footwork drills, felt balanced and practical. Still, I want to keep working on my serve and learn new types of serves next time. Manny’s approach made me see how crucial footwork really is for the game. Maybe next time, more drills on movement could be beneficial, but overall, it was a good, productive lesson. I think I’ll try to keep improving with Manny’s guidance.

I had a great experience with my Manny. He was punctual and had the lesson very well organized. We started with a warm-up and then went over the basics of tennis. He took the time to observe my game and identify the key areas I needed to work on. The feedback and techniques he shared were clear, practical, and easy to applyβ€”I noticed a big improvement in my game after just one session. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to build a strong foundation and improve their tennis skills.

Manny’s lesson was quite well organized, and I appreciated how encouraging he was throughout. The new serve practice method was pretty helpful, and he was flexible when I asked to focus on volleys and slide techniques. Still, I think working more on footwork and backhand positioning could help me react faster. Overall, a good session that left me feeling motivated to keep improving. If you're looking for a coach who’s consistent and attentive, maybe give Manny a try.

Emmanuel’s lesson was quite helpful, especially with that good reminder to stay in the blue and be confident is helping out. Though I’ll be off next week, I plan to keep practicing consistently, which should help. The focus on maintaining a steady, relaxed mindset feels pretty valuable overall. If you’re looking to sharpen your tennis skills with a coach who emphasizes confidence and clarity, trying Emmanuel might be worth considering.

The lesson with Emmanuel was quite fun, and I appreciated how he kept it engaging while still focusing on improving my game. Though I’d say it was more about having a good time, I did notice some subtle adjustments that could make my play more competitive. Still, I left feeling confident and motivated to practice what we discussed. If you're looking for a relaxed, skill-focused tennis lesson, Emmanuel might be worth trying.

The lesson definitely highlighted some key areas I needed to work on, especially around shot placement and footwork, which Emmanuel explained pretty clearly. Still, I feel like I could benefit from more focus on consistency, but I’ll keep at it and see how things progress next time. If you’re looking to refine specific aspects of your game, Emmanuel’s approach is quite practical. Trying him out could be worth considering.

Im a former recreational player hoping to resume playing after a 10-year hiatus. I really appreciated that Emmanuel was so patient with me, working at just the right pace for a 70-year-old like me. I’m sure he’s fantastic no matter what level you play at: He is a supportive instructor who can make anyone feel comfortable! Im hoping to take more lessons with him so I can resume playing this fantastic sport!

I think the lesson with Emmanuel was quite helpful. He really paid attention to my feedback and clarified some key groundstroke techniques, which I appreciated. Still, I hope next time we can also focus more on my serve, as that’s been a bit inconsistent. Though, overall, the lesson provided a solid foundation and I’d consider trying another one soon.

That was a really thorough lesson, Manny clearly understands tennis safety, which is so important, as I currently am navigating tennis elbow. I feel like I learned quite a bit about injury prevention. If you’re looking for someone who emphasizes safe play while also focusing on fundamentals, Manny’s a good option to try.

Emmanuel’s lesson stood out because he really focused on my footwork technique, which I found quite helpful. Still, I’d probably benefit from more practice to really tune in my stroke consistency. Though I felt the coaching was precise and practical, I’ll look forward to trying more lessons with him.

The lesson focused on my backhand, and Manny’s guidance really helped me feel more confident in that shot. Though I think working on my serve could make a big difference next time, still I appreciate the overall clarity he brought to my game and would be curious to try another lesson with him.
