We are honored to get to leave a review for Krishna & Paulo at Play BT!…read moreKrishna and Paulo are great people and terrific coaches! They both are Pro players and are passionate in the way they share this fun sport. Our whole family, which includes myself(49 year old female) my husband, 18 year old daughter, and 15 year old son with autism has taken part in either lessons, league nights, free play, or tournaments put on by PlayBT. Lessons are a great workout and great repetition to get used to proper form & technique.Lots of continual movement and attention to detail and encouragement. They play great music and work with the flow of the group to accommodate all skill levels.You get a LOT out of one session! League nights are so fun! Round robin style so you get to play with lots of different players and gets lots of game situational practice.They keep courts going so there is almost no waiting.Great music pumping to keep you fired up.They keep track of who wins each set and who has won the most overall each week and total. Really nice people and often go to dinner together afterward if you're up to it.You don't have to show up every Wed. Or Fri. Night, just whenever you can/want to.Great program! Tournaments are well thought out and they provide great snacks and impressive prizes!Lots of games...you can sign up with a partner in higher level tourney, or you can play without a set partner in Beginner Division & play Round Robin style.Good times for all and fun to watch the rallies! They coach youth and special needs kiddos too. They coach work groups, Birthday groups,etc.and are very flexible and open to ideas. They are just great. We hadn't played Beach Tennis before when we started with them but now we are all hooked and looking forward to playing for a long time. They are growing the sport, and we highly recommend you get out there with them...it's fun for all ages!

Michael made it incredibly fun for someone like me who had never been on a tennis court before. I love his teaching style, and he's so patient with everyone. I've actually noticed great progress within a short amount of time, and now I'm getting my friends to play with me so I can keep practicing what I've learned. I definitely recommend any beginner to try CityTennis. You're going to have a lot of fun, get a great workout, and make new friends!

Wow. Where do I even start? Rhonda is simply amazing. I began my tennis journey as an adult about a…read moreyear ago, having only picked up a racket once before taking my very first beginner group lesson with her. Now, I'm addicted to this sport and play as much as I can -- in large part thanks to Rhonda. Having a patient, thoughtful coach makes all the difference, and Rhonda is exactly that (and more!). Her enthusiasm and support are infectious. I honestly don't know how she finds joy in watching a bunch of adult-beginners batting around green dot balls, but somehow she makes me feel like I'm playing center court at the US Open! She's incredible at building confidence, which is huge when you're learning something new at any age (but maybe especially as an adult?). Rhonda has a knack for observing you for just a few minutes, pinpointing exactly what's off in your technique, and offering small, easy-to-apply adjustments that make a huge difference. Also when it came time to purchase a REAL racket (not the dinky amazon one I brought to my first lesson), she helped recommend the specs and coordinate the purchase (invaluable because I had no idea what to ask or look for!) If you're even thinking about learning tennis or improving your game, reach out to Rhonda. She's simply the best.

I'm a total tennis beginner, but I took a lesson at a spa resort a couple months ago that really…read morepiqued my interest in learning more. At that lesson, I had so much fun and learned a ton about technique. By the end, the instructor and I were having a great time and hitting balls back and forth. I felt like I could get good at the game! It took me a long time to find tennis lessons here in LA. Despite the difficult scheduling process at this location, I was still enthusiastic about getting started. I ended up sorely disappointed. The instructor seemed surprised and almost borderline annoyed that i was a beginner despite the fact that I made that clear on my form. He had zero enthusiasm and didn't really give much helpful feedback. By the end of the lesson I swear I got worse. I was missing almost every single ball yet he kept throwing them with occasional vague instructions about my racket angle. All my excitement about tennis was quashed in those 60 minutes On a more minor note, if I'm paying $125 for an hour, I don't expect to spend a quarter of it picking up balls. Come on now. At least it added to my very meager calorie burn I guess.

In just a few lessons, my mom went from beginner to playing tennis with me. She's always excited for her next class. What makes Sanaz special isn't just her skill in tennis. It's how she makes every lesson fun and how she makes my mom smile after each class. Sanaz really knows how to lift someone's spirits. If you need a coach who's skilled and really cares, Sanaz is your best bet.

He is very friendly, attentive, and creates a relaxed environment that makes learning feel enjoyable rather than intimidating. In just under three months, I've already noticed much improvements in my forehand, which has given me a big confidence boost. My backhand still needs some work, but Demetrius is always encouraging and patient, which helps me stay motivated. I also really appreciate that he takes the time to review clips I send from my solo wall practice and gives me useful feedback in between lessons. That's another thing, taking lessons with him has given more enough courage to book a court and practice on my own. It's clear he genuinely cares about helping me improve, and I'd recommend him to anyone looking for a supportive and dedicated tennis coach.

With that said, I figured my first lesson would be a breeze... wrong! lol. From our first lesson, we jumped right in, drilling the fundamentals... grip, stance, footwork, etc. It was clear his passion for tennis and his dedication to seeing his students excel! His lessons go beyond the courts as he regularly sends videos/homework for his students to study between lessons. I feel immensely grateful to have found Coach D. My skills are far beyond what I could have anticipated 6 months ago. I'm regularly complimented on how well I play despite being a novice. Whether you are a beginner (like me) and looking to kick-start your game or, if you're a seasoned player wanting to take your game to the next level, seriously, look no further.

Tennis, being played outdoors here in California, is a safe, ideal sport to practice, especially during the pandemic, even if now things seem to slowly return to normal. To have a group of really good people who love the game, that meets almost every day of the week, is a rare privilege in LA where it's almost impossible to get anyone to commit to, practically, anything. So, contact John, and go try it out. Have fun. Make new friends. Have a laugh. Get moving again. You won't regret it.
