Emil is a great coach and great person. My son is 14 and loves lessons with Emil. My son is improving each week. Emil is excellent with footwork and all the fundamentals of the game and coaches with a positive attitude but expects hard work! I am not much of a tennis player myself, but just listening to him coach my son has made me a stronger player! Definitely recommend Emil!

Having worked with Emil for the past 3 years I have become a better and more confident player, Emil is one of the best pros/coaches around! I train with him 4 times a week and I'm constantly learning while on court. Whether you're a seasoned player or just starting out, Emil should definitely be your first choice when choosing a coach.

No matter the skill level, age, or personality Emil is the guy you want for tennis. I have worked with Emil the tennis pro on the court and I can say he is an even better person off of it. Whether you're looking to start playing, improve, or just have fun I cannot recommend him enough. He has helped my game immensely and I know he will happily do the same for anyone else!

I was a student of Emil's and was part of many clinics he ran. He is a fantastic teacher and all around guy. Every lesson I had I left with new things I had learned. He gets along with everyone, is fun, and easy to talk to. I would recommend him to anyone, of any age group. I always enjoyed every minute on the court with him.
