Tennis
Rob enjoys teaching tennis to adults in a group or individual setting. Most of his students are
Beginner to Intermediate (2.0 to 3.5) players who enjoy the format of clinics and drills. These
consist of groups anywhere from 4-8 players per court and run for 1 to 1.5 hours. They typically start
with warmup drills of basic strokes such as forehand, backhand, volley and overhead followed by
classic games such as Offense-Defense (in multiple formats), Monarch of the Court and 3-2-1.
Attention is also given to grip, stroke analysis, and strategy. There is also the option of a Cardio
Tennis class which utilizes special low compression balls, constant moving and motivating music.
Private and small group lessons are also available.
Pickleball
Rob enjoys teaching pickleball to adults in a group setting. Most of his students are new to the
game so most clinics are geared towards beginners with an explanation of the rules and basic
strategy. Drills followed by game play is a typical format. Intermediate classes are also given for
more experienced players. No more than 3 courts with 12 players should be utilized. It is
understood that most facilities have dual use (tennis or basketball) courts with portable nets stored
in a courtside lock box. Private and small group lessons are also available. Cardio Pickleball, an
energetic mix of pickleball, fitness and cardio is also offered for groups of 6 or more.
