Kary breaks everything down so my 9 yr old is able to fully understand what is being taught and how to apply it to the lessons he is providing. His prices are phenomenal as well.

Kary is an awesome instructor! His instructions are clear and concise. He knows the game of tennis very well and loves to teach it. He also brings all the necessary equipment including a tennis ball machine. Highly recommend!

Kary was very informative, knowledgeable and encouraging. I had a blast working with him. He really focused on the parts of my game that needed the most work. He made me sweat, which I loved. He always seems to work at or just above my level to keep me progressing in the game and not to much ahead to deter me. Highly recommend Kary for any type of player.
