“Although I’ve played tennis for 40+ years, I am new to pickleball this summer, and am so glad I connected with Mark! He’s not only a skilled and knowledgeable coach, but a kind and patient person. Mark is phenomenal at explaining the transition from tennis to pickleball and the intricacies of each shot, position, and strategy. He’s also very personable and has a genuine interest in knowing me as an individual. Sometimes you cross paths with the right person at the right time, and Mark is one of those people. I thoroughly enjoy getting out on the court and learning the game of pickleball from Mark. In just a few short weeks, my skill level has improved significantly! Highly recommended!”

I am visiting Michigan for the month, and wanted to learn the game of tennis while I was here. I found Mark online, read the reviews, and decided to trust them. Man, were they all 100% accurate! He is informative, patient, and truly adapts each session to the individual. You can tell he cares about your success and passion for the sport itself. He is flexible with scheduling, provides thorough feedback during each session, and is just a kind/happy person who puts a smile on your face. As an absolute beginner, I highly recommend learning the wonderful game of tennis with Coach Mark!

Great first 2 hours with Mark! I got to practice and drill all the significant shots, even at the net, to get a good feel for my strong and weak suits and give Mark a roadmap. Mark is casual, which I like, and he made me comfortable. As an approachable guy, he makes the sometimes tricky game of tennis more approachable.

My son benefited much from the tennis lessons on all fronts. Lessons were flexible and effective in terms of overall work, specific work and requests, and flexible times for the lessons. Made a big difference as a freshman performing 1st doubles on JV!! High recommendation! Thank you!

Working with Coach Mark these past couple months has helped my tennis a ton. My net play and control has improved significantly. Coach Mark is very thorough and goes through every step of the game. Whenever I show up to a lesson I know I will improve and get a good workout in!
