Great coaching. Pays attention to detail on my strokes and is able to give actionable feedback. Even after the first lesson I was able to see my technique improve drastically. Makes me more excited to play and practice tennis!

Mike is a highly technical tennis coach who was super detailed and thorough in his advice on how to improve my ground strokes and serve. He worked with me to remove some bad habits that I had picked up over time with my backhand, and I quickly was hitting backhands comfortably, which was hard for me before. My friends were impressed with how much I improved from just one session with Mike! I can’t recommend him more highly, excited to working with him again

This coach really knows the art of tennis. He was incredible precise with the feedback and I was able to implement his clear instructions immediately. If you are looking for someone to give you concrete feedback and improve your game, then I will book a session today.

Extremely knowledgable instructor. Great mix of instruction, play and exercise. My daughter and I took lessons separately and both of us recommend Mike.

MG is the best you can find in LA if you’re actually trying to learn the game of tennis and set yourself up for the long term. He’s very technical and has a million different drills he can put you through to help the learning stick. He’s also the best because he’s flexible on schedule and super responsive. If you’re just trying to work out, go for a run, but if you wanna see real improvement in your game def hit up MG!
