Although I am a beginner in tennis, Salikh has made me passionate about the sport, seducing me each time I practice with him. Without a doubt, he will push you to work hard, but it is worth it as he tailors his coaching to your needs and guarantees positive results. Don't hesitate to train with him and be prepared to get your sweat on!

Finding a competent tennis instructor proved to be quite challenging, particularly since it seemed that nobody in LA could effectively teach the technical aspects of the sport. However, Salikh was an exception to the rule. Thanks to his extensive knowledge and ability to explain the intricacies of tennis, I was able to significantly improve my skills in just a month and a half of training (despite playing with other individuals for a year prior). As a result of his tutelage, I am now participating in USTA tournaments.
