Our kids (12 and 13 years old) have been with coach Joseph for a year now and we continue to be impressed.  He and his team are genuinely committed to their students and masterfully teach them technique, strategy and mindset. If you're an adult or child, beginner or advanced player, and are looking to improve your game, you'll be hard pressed to find a more talented coach to partner with. read more

Coach joseph can help bring the enjoyment of this sport to those of all ages and levels. He has a great team around him to fulfill this. Kids under 5 years old, elementary and jr high kids, high school and college. Skill level fr enthusiast to high performance tournament level. Private to group classes/camps. He also works with the adult tennis players of all levels. He doesn't just tell you what to do but will watch and break down the movements every unique player would benefit from. He is not just a "ball machine" that just gives you a bunch of shots to hit but will help bring out the best player in you read more

Mr Joseph motivates students and teaches with technics to improve your play. Overall a great tennis coach read more

We live in Scholl Canyon and wanted to find a tennis coach for my two boys. We were excited that Coach Joe was teaching right up the hill in Scholl Canyon Country Club. He's amazing with the kids. Not only is he patient but is very motivating. His enthusiasm for tennis reflects in his instructions. read more

Love the coach! The man is dedicated to his craft and patient w/ his students. Took a few of his private lessons and he actually took time to analyze every single part of my game to find the kinks that need to be worked out that was holding me back. A lot of hard lessons learned and a lot of physical conditioning but was worth it. Since he had competed and won numerous USTA competitions in the past, you know he is battle tested unlike some coaches out there. I've also seen him really focus on the development of the juniors and I believe some of them compete. Amazing work he puts out and just his love of the sport of tennis is just so inspiring! Tennis lessons from coach Joe recommend for all levels and ages! read more

Coach Joe is an amazing teacher.. Like any sport he teaches that improvement starts with discipline and dedication, but he makes learning tennis fun as well! My son has made so much growth after starting lessons with Coach Joe.. he definitely looks forward to his lessons with him! read more

Coach Joseph is one of my favorite and best coaches so far. I met him and his father 7 years ago when I was looking for a good coach for my daughter who is now 12 years old. She loves going there to Scholl Canyon. She goes there twice a week and during summer or winter vacation for Tennis Camp during the year. He run a school of Tennis and he is doing with recruiting few young assistants coaches with him. He is not there to make a lot of money, but to have kids to learn Tennis, discipline, meet other kids, feel safe, have fun, stay out of trouble. My daughter will never go somewhere else. He is a good coach and a good person and has a great assistant coaches with him to help. read more

I've taken both one-on-one and group classes with Joseph and love them both. One-on-one classes: Joseph goes through different techniques and drills with you and helps hone in on the types of techniques that go best with what your natural tendencies are. He takes the time to go through the basics and foundations until you're ready to build everything on top of those skills. He pushes you beyond what you may think you're capable of and that's what I really appreciate about Joseph's teaching style. He made me see that I didn't have to be stuck in what I thought was my skill level. He stretched me to see that I could play well if I believed I could and put in the work. I took one-one-one classes twice a week for a month and I learned and improved much more than I did in two years in tennis academy at Rusty Miller in Arcadia. Group classes: Joseph goes through different drills and games with the group and in pairs. I thought the format of the drills would be pretty relaxed because of the tennis classes I took growing up, but what we learn in the group classes with Joseph are no joke. He somehow tailors the lesson to be doable and applicable for first-time beginners, seasoned tennis players, and everyone in-between. I especially enjoy when Joseph pairs us up and has us play different games (not actual tennis matches) against each other. The games bring out a competitiveness that make it all more fun. Bottom line: Joseph cares and he's a really good teacher (and he's REALLY good at tennis). That's more than I can say for the different tennis instructors I've had throughout my life. He doesn't just feed balls and leave the growing and learning to you. He takes an active role in improving your game and that's why I'll never go to anyone else! read more

Great tennis teacher and an even better person! Teaches not just for tennis principles but will also instill proper work ethic in his students while keeping the lesson interesting and fun! I count Joseph as a friend, so this may be biased, but I can vouch for his authenticity and genuine heart for his students and the game which he loves. I took lessons from his father, uncle and the man himself and haven't enjoyed tennis this much in years. Thanks Mister Joseph! Ps. Also easy on the eyes ;) read more

I started group classes taught by Joseph last week. Though I came in with no prior knowledge of tennis, he made sure that I was learning at a good pace whilst keeping up with the rest of the group. What immediately struck me was how well organized and thorough the lesson was! Joseph uses the time very efficiently and still gives sufficient breaks. Overall, had a GREAT time and possibly the workout of the year. :) Could definitely see how people of all ages and all different skill levels, whether playing casually or competitively, could greatly benefit from taking either group or private lessons from him. Looking forward to this week's lesson!! Wahooooooo!! read more

Love me some Mr. Joseph! Mr. Joseph's group classes are a ton of fun and great exercise. Joseph breaks down all techniques into simple, easy to learn form. We go through various drills to help drill the fundamentals of each technique. For those of us who are having trouble, Joseph takes us aside to give us more pointers. He really wants us to learn and have fun. After the techniques and drills, Joseph organizes interesting group activities. Tons of running and swinging but huge smiles all around. Overall, its just a great atmosphere where you learn tennis and have fun. read more

I decided to have a hand in playing tennis; I decided to take a private lesson, with no experience. Not only is Mister Joseph's Tennis professional, he personally took time outside after hour to give me pointers. Knowledgeable, straight to the point, yet personable. I will definitely take more lessons, once I can manage to walk normal again. read more

Coach Joseph is an incredible teacher and I feel so fortunate to have found a great tennis instructor for my child. My five year old started tennis lessons just a few months ago and it's amazing to see the progress he is making each week. My child loves it and looks forward to it because he sees himself improving and making shots now that he couldn't do before. That's encouraging! Coach Joseph mixes up the lesson with a good balance of fundamentals and fun. He speaks gently, patiently, and clearly to my child. He genuinely cares. Each lesson is tailored so that my child builds upon the previous lesson. He has a solid teaching methodology and process. As a parent, I've experienced that finding the right instructor plays such an important part in the success of a child. Coach Joseph is doing a great job and is highly recommended. read more

Joe is very passionate about tennis. And is excited to teach it. He has studied many years of techniques and is very good at explaining posture and safety. During our drills, he is very understanding and encouraging. Growing up I have taken several tennis lessons from several coaches, but no one has been as caring as Joe. He really enjoys seeing improvement. I would really encourage anyone to grab a few friends and have fun with Joe. He is knowledgable in all aspects of tennis. You have any questions about rackets, shoes, strings, anything. He's your guy. He knows what kind you should get for your skill level. And where you'll get the best price. I'm part of Joe's group lesson. Even though we are a group of mixed skill levels, we still have fun every week trying to hit that sweet spot. read more

Joseph is a great teacher for my teen son for tennis. Not only does he actually teach the fundamentals of the sport but he relates to my son and knows how to connect with him. I find that truly valuable. My son is not into sports and he was willing to continue tennis with Joseph. Joseph knows how to talk to my teen and keep him engaged. Such a teacher with both the hard skills of tennis and the soft skills of dealing with people is a rare find. I highly recommend Mr. Kim. read more

Haven't played tennis in years, and Mister Joseph got me back in. Groups lessons are fun and Joseph seems to really cater to your skill level, without making it feel too challenging or too boring. I'd highly recommend checking him out. read more

I've been taking group lessons with Coach Joseph for about two months now, and he is an awesome tennis instructor! I really appreciate that Joseph pays attention and breaks down each stroke for me, which helps me to know exactly what I need to work on. I enjoy his lessons and walk out of the court feeling more confident each week! So if you are looking to get started for the first time or improve on your techniques/skills, Joseph is your guy to learn from! Seriously, I couldn't have found a better coach. read more

My daughter has been a student of Coach Joe's for a few years now, and I can honestly say that he is not only a great teacher, but will be a wonderful friend. When finding a teacher for anything, it is important that they can't only explain things in an easy to understand way, but also make the experience fun and worth working hard at. This is probably most evident with kids, but likely true for all ages. Without a love for what they are learning, anyone will find it hard to get up and devote themselves to it wholeheartedly. After working with many different coaches, and quitting the sport many times, we finally found a coach who understood how to make the experience a real leisurely activity, and not just another frustrating class. And with that enjoyment for the sport, a clear and rapid improvement followed. Coach Joe was the first coach that made the sport stress relieving and not stress inducing for my teenage daughter. He is an amazing tennis coach in the general regard. He's patient, observant, and can pinpoint a person's most minute, nagging, and deeply engrained errors in a heartbeat. He takes the time to explain to my daughter the reasons and benefits behind every exercise and drill they do. But his most important and best quality is his approachable and enthusiastic personality. With all these traits combined, he can do what many other coaches can only dream of, which is turn the tennis court into a precious escape for all his students. After all, when around someone who clearly loves his job so much it is hard for a student to not to give a 120%. read more

Awesome tennis instructor! Regardless of your age or skill level, he matches your pace and works with you to improve your technique and overall fitness. When I started taking group lessons with Joe, I hadn't been on the courts in years and was really rusty. He was immediately able to pinpoint and fix the problems with my strokes and serves. As a result, he's truly made tennis fun again! Joe genuinely cares for his students, and he takes the time to get to know you beyond how well you can swing a racquet. His passion for the sport is so evident in the way that he teaches it as well as his ability to play it. If you've been wanting to learn how to play tennis or get back into it, I highly recommend taking lessons from Joe! read more

I came to Joe as a total beginner who had never even held a racket before. I've learned so much in a short time and can already rally. Joe is both patient and challenging. His energetic and positive attitude makes learning all aspects of the sport fun, and I've never felt discouraged. At the same time, he is careful about teaching you all of the fundamental techniques so that you can develop at a steady and efficient pace. He is always paying acute attention to all of my actions so he can readily suggest minor adjustments that improve my play, and they invariably do. A+ experience with Mister Joseph's Tennis. read more

Joe is an exceptional tennis instructor. My 7 year old grandson is having a wonderful time learning how to hit the ball with the proper form while having a fun time. I sit back and watch while the fundamentals of tennis striking and strategy are incorporated into the mind and body in a straight and also subtle manner. I think I can say this as my own daughter received a full ride tennis scholarship to the University of California at Irvine. The instruction that Joe gives is very similar to what she received. I give Joe 5 stars in all departments. I am thankful that my grandson is able to learn in this manner with both group and private lessons while having a blast. Sincerely, Hank read more

Coach Joseph's tennis lessons are excellent! I'm a complete beginner in tennis and Joseph's coaching has helped me progress in my tennis by leaps and bounds. I hope to someday be as good as Coach Joseph. Coach Joseph has a very keen eye and nurturing tone for instruction. He's corrected many of my mistakes without addressing me directly which is greatly appreciated. In terms of technical ability, Coach Joseph is a great tennis player but where he really shines is as a coach and motivator. He just makes tennis so fun with interesting drills and challenging games, learning something new has never been this fun. I would recommend him to people of all ages and all abilities! read more

Mister Joseph is a great Tennis teacher who managed to bring me from no tennis experience to being good enough to get on the high school team. He always gives positive feedback and is well experienced in teaching inexperienced tennis players. All in all, Joe is a great coach who has helped me tremendously. read more

Joe is a top-notch coach and I highly recommend him irrespective of your age or skill level in tennis. I've had several instructors throughout my life and none approach the game in the same way as Joe. He is one of the few coaches I know that still competes, and cares deeply about improving not only his students' game but also his own. That is a remarkable difference from say other coaches who are clearly checked out and merely tell you to chase balls around until the lesson is over. There were plenty of instances when Joe ran drills with me. Joe also takes a meticulous and strategic approach to coaching rather than implement a "one size fits all" scheme to his lessons. He will assess your baseline, and create a regimen that is suitable to your individual profile. And if you're serious about improving your game even when off the court, he has no shortage of book recommendations. He has a knack for finding sound principles across disciplines and applying them to tennis, although conversely, many of the conversations we had about tennis motivated me to better myself in other aspects of my life. It would've made a world of difference if I had a mentor like him when I was younger. I'd probably own a Ferrari. Two of them. Besides his love and understanding of tennis, Joe cares deeply about his students--and it shows. Some of the parents I spoke with truly admired the way Joe bonded with their kids. So again, I highly recommend Joe. Whether you're a parent trying to find an instructor for your kids, or someone who's dabbled in tennis before but wants to take it seriously, or even if you're picking up the racket for the first time as an adult, your search for a coach ends with Joe. read more

One of the best lessons ive ever had! Joe taught me good form and consistency and had a sharp eye but a gentle tone while correcting my bad habits. Definitely coming back! read more

Our son has been taking lessons from Coach Joe for about three months now. Joe is patient, focuses on teaching the proper techniques and at the same time makes the class fun for the kids. We are very happy and would recommend Coach Joe to anyone looking for a tennis instructor! read more

My children take lessons from Coach Joe, and they really enjoy his classes! We highly recommend him for kids' group tennis classes. He is patient, kind, and fun, yet firm with the kids. I like how he observes each student and makes recommendations on adjustments to each student's technique and form. His Assistant Coaches -- Coaches Nate and Leo -- are wonderful with the kids too. The icing on the cake is that we have a nice group of kids in the program. They all get along well and play well with one another. The parents are quite nice too! It's a great, positive environment. We are very happy with Mister Joseph Tennis! read more

We love Joseph! We have taken family lessons from him for several months now. My kids are 8 and 12 year old beginners, as is mom...just older! Dad was a bit rusty. It's been amazing to see how Joseph can teach to that range of skill level and age. He's able to model and explain the basics and specific techniques so it's very easy to understand. He is also is kind, encouraging and connectable. We're pretty spoiled now with such an all-around great instructor! read more

I've been playing tennis for 3 years and always struggled with my forehand. It was good enough to win most matches, but I knew that it could do better and I wanted to be a better tennis player. I saw Joe play tennis and his movement on the court reminded me of Federer. Immediately, I knew that I had to take lessons from him. Now that I have taken several lessons from Joe, all I can say is that Joe is an elite instructor, a true master of his art. I have taken lessons from other instructors, but no one and I mean no one was able to break down the problems with my forehand as quickly and effectively as Joe. I still have a long way to go before I become Serena, but with Joe's help, my forehand will become a weapon. Joe has also worked on the mental aspect of my game. His philosophical approach to life is helping me off the court and that is priceless. I can't give Joe more praise. I highly recommend him. He is the BEST! read more

I've been taking lessons from Joe for the past month and have been noticing a significant change in my game. His method of teaching actually makes tennis more enjoyable. Every single micro adjustment he makes to my swing is foritified with practical application immediately after. Not just a good coach, his genuine attitude towards improving your skills really shows in his attention to detail. Finally, tennis is something I enjoy again. read more

Joseph is an excellent tennis instructor & an overall wonderful human being! I took lessons with his dad JB for many years and am so grateful he decided to start teaching tennis himself. When my daughter said she wanted to learn to play tennis, I knew she would feel comfortable learning from him. He is incredibly kind and patient with the children and adults whom he teaches. My daughter has learned so much since she first started to take lessons with him last January. He gently helps the kids to learn and get better on their own. My daughter looks forward to every lesson and she always asks to re-enroll in his classes. Her confidence has grown and she has genuinely had fun not only learning to play the game, but also meeting and interacting with other kids her age. It is awesome to watch him teach the kids and see their progression from barely making contact with the ball to gaining more confidence and control. read more

I started working with joe in the summer of 8th grade and during that time my family was going thru financial struggles so we couldn't pay for many classes. He saw my desire and obsession with the game and offered me free lessons. Now I'm going into my third year of high school and I can confidently say I wouldn't be the person I am today nor the tennis player if it weren't for joesphs teachings and guidance on and off the tennis court. He really has helped me through tough times and celebrated the good times with me too. He inspires and motivates me to better a person than I was the day before. Thank you joe for all that you've done for me and my family!!!!! read more
