Beka is a rare find. I didn't expect our child to learn more with our first one hour private lesson…read morewith coach Beka than the 5 hrs of private lessons he had taken with another coach (not affiliated with Beka Tennis Academy) . We were looking for an after school class to complement his private lessons and decided to give Beka a try to see if he would be a nice fit for our family. And after the group classes we have decided that for our son's benefit it would be best to only learn with coach Beka and, do the private lessons as well as the group classes only with him. We have invited our son's friends and they have all loved their classes and asked to come back . My husband and I are also planning to join the adult group classes. What we love about Beka is that he is fun and at the same time rigorous. The kids love him, but he still finds a way to instill discipline while fostering their love for tennis. Beka is not only a very talented coach, but he is a family man, as well as a great human being. Maia the academy coordinator, is amazing as well. She responded to our emails promptly and it was a breeze to communicate and schedule the lessons. The clay courts are nice , surrounded by trees across from a Country Club. The surroundings are peaceful. Can't wait to see our son grow as a Tennis player and as an even better human with Beka as his coach and mentor.

Beka is very patient and has the ability to quickly identify and fix problem areas in your game. I think one of Beka's strengths is the ability to make tennis fun. He knows when to be strict with a student and when to ease off so as not to turn someone off from the game he has so much love and passion for.

No organization to the point my son is stuck in a class I have continuously said he is not enriched in due to a rotation of teachers in it, and no updates throughout the day on my sons activities or curriculum.

If you want a school with a classroom that truly enriches kids without rotating teachers (I've seen up to 6 teachers in my sons class periodically) , active communication and detailed curriculum activities in the app they use..do not go here.

My worst nightmare happened at Tutor time in Norwalk when my daughter came home with unexplained…read moreinjuries. When she started, she would cry unconsolably when we dropped her off. When I watched her on their video app, I noticed she wouldn't be comforted. I also noticed that she spent hours in the crib despite only napping for an hour. The teacher was cold towards her and my daughter seemed specifically scared of this teacher. There was a lot of neglect and isolation. When she was picked up by this specific teacher, it was without empathy. I saw my daughter fearfully retreat into the crib when she was approached by her. I saw my daughter swat at her face and the teacher then took her to an area of the room that isn't visible on camera. When I tried to screenshot or record what I saw, it disables the app. I called the assistant director and spoke with him about my concerns. That evening when I went to bathe my daughter, I noticed multiple abrasions on her chest, armpit, back and puncture wounds on her hand. I sent an email to the assistant director and met with him and the site director in the morning. When I undressed my daughter and showed them her injuries they stated they felt they occurred by the teacher picking her up and being scratched by her long nails accidentally. There was never an incident report made. It's impossible that my daughter was scratched harmlessly with her clothes on leaving a total of 9 marks on her left side and two on her right hand. There is no way that my daughter scratched herself nor another child. I am a ER physician and their lack of concern is appalling. This was not an accident. I believe Tutor time is not naive to instances similar to what occurred with my daughter based on their response. They are not a safe facility for any child to attend and I definitely would warn anyone not to do so.

Not only did he help with steps, but he put in the work to actually help choreograph a number. Like a full-on dance, plus he orchestrated a beautiful experience for our family. He was kind, funny, and extremely collaborative to ensure Daddy and Daughter were confident and having fun. Two days before the event, I reached out and asked if he could help me (Mom) learn a simple step so that we could also have a moment with a dance as well. Wow! I have no exact words to express how happy and grateful I was that he fit me into his very busy schedule so that I, too could have my own moment with our daughter. When I say that I'm beyond grateful, it doesn't fully describe the superb experience we had at Arosa Balleoom and the most enjoyable time with a fantastic dance instructor. He is passionate about his craft and just a lovely person. We'll be forever grateful and kind of hooked. Maybe we will continue with instruction, because we may have to catch up to my colleague, who is not a bronze-level dancer! The studio is located in a great spot and has plenty of parking too. Don't just walk, but cha-cha yourself to Arosa if you want to learn a few steps. Highly recommended.
