About
Hello im Lance Lane I am a life time tennis player and martial arts devotee. I have coached all levels and ages of players in my 15 yrs of coaching experience. High school state champions! Pk Yonge gainesville fl. Sunshine state games mens open doubles champion.
I have practiced martial arts since age 7. I started with tae kwon do then aikido later wado kai karate and then boxing in mexico and kickboxing in puerto rico. I have met and worked with great trainers and coaches in many countries and take with me the knowlege and insight shared with me over the years by so many greats and masters of the inner game and the sweet science. I have dynamic full body kick boxing workouts that wil get you in even better shape for tennis or simply for the love of destressing on the focus mitts! I really enjoy getting to know my students and share great joy in all improvements and new rating levels. My old student Bobby Beland could barely rally 3 balls when we started 5 yrs ago and now he is the captin of his 4.5 league team
