About
As a former USPTA certified tennis professional with over 35 years of playing and competing experience, I have been teaching tennis since 1988. In addition, I hold an advanced degree in Psychology and have over ten years of experience in secondary and post-secondary education, providing me with a unique understanding of how people acquire new skills at different stages of life. In 2016, I discovered pickleball and began coaching it the following year. Utilizing tennis fundamentals, my coaching approach is tailored to the needs of each individual player. It is worth noting that many top pickleball players are former tennis pros.
I strive to provide excellent service to all my clients, and you can find my link listed in my profile at SGVTennisLifestyle.blogspot.com. Though new to CrackerJack, I have received numerous 5-star testimonials on both PlayYourCourt.com and CoachUp.com.
I look forward to seeing you on the court soon!

Michael is an exceptional tennis coach, and as a novice, I have been attending his classes twice a week for over three months. He has imparted ample knowledge in a short duration, which significantly helped enhance my stroke. I appreciate his method of explanation, which includes the reasoning behind each action, rather than just instructing to execute it. His comprehensive explanation with video analysis enables identifying and correcting errors. I highly recommend him to anyone who wants to learn tennis or improve their game, given his depth of knowledge about the sport.

Michael is an exceptional and enthusiastic coach, who excels in effective communication and possesses a great sense of humor. His explanations are simple and easy to comprehend, and he acknowledges and commends your efforts. Michael frequently employs video demonstrations, helping me identify and correct previously unnoticed flaws in my technique. He even compared my strokes to those of Venus Williams, my idol. Unlike previous coaches, Michael did not encourage me to repeat damaging habits, but immediately addressed them, putting me on track towards real improvement. As a result of his coaching, I plan to try out for the Varsity team next season.
