About Joe
Hello my name is Joe and I am a local Mission Viejo tennis coach in Southern Orange County with over 35 years of playing experience and over 15 years of teaching experience, some of which being at a prominent local academy that saw hundreds of students each day, with all different skill levels, from toddlers to high performers. I have played on various teams in Irvine and RSM. I’m still a competitive player with a regular training schedule and have won tournaments, both singles & doubles, at different ratings including the Open level.
Tennis is a challenging sport which requires ease of flow married with complex neuro-physical functions. After viewing hundreds of tennis students daily and watching how the mind works, I have come up with a system that breaks down each movement precisely into zen-like focus steps which promotes accelerated learning on court.
One of the perks I also offer is isolation of the mental component. As a competing player and having been in the corporate world as well, I understand the variables that we can bring onto the court and how it affects the sight of the ball. Sounds simple, but in reality not quite so. “But Coach Joe, I just wanted to know how to hit a forehand?” Yes, I cover that and the parts of your mind that will keep retention, focus and clarity. Whether you learn best through sight, through sound or just simply by feel, I adapt all of your tennis lessons to your senses.
If you are interested in a thorough experience which will have you playing competitively, or just looking to micro refine your already awesome game, please sign up for my 8 wk course, which includes 1 free lesson. Each lesson isolates a different stroke and analyzes the various components to produce efficiency. I go way beyond just feeding a ball to you and telling you to adjust your follow through.
I teach in the Mission Viejo area but will travel up to 20 miles to a court near you, depending on traffic and time of day. I offer private, semi-private, group and hitting sessions for all levels of play. Please contact me through my FindTennisLesson.com coach page and I will then contact you within 24 hours to answer any questions that you may have and determine the best schedule that fits for both of us.
