About Thomas
Hi, my name is Thomas. I started tennis around age 5 in Belgium. Growing up I played in many ITF tournaments around the world, then as I got older played on the Futures circuit. After that played four years of Division 1 college tennis. Played and coached in Australia, Romania, Belgium, and here in the USA. I’ve taught beginners to division 1 college players, and have taught a wide array of ages from 4 to 86 even. I’ve coached women’s and men’s USTA teams, as well, in Westchester County, New York.
Teaching Experience: 8 years
Teaching Style
I’m very big on teaching strong fundamentals from the get-go. I think if you teach the student the proper strokes, then the results will always come as a by-product of the right mechanics. My priorities will always first be the ground strokes and the serve, if you become proficient at those then you can really start playing with other people on your own and enjoy it. The more advanced the player is, the different the lesson will be. 4.0 players and above we will specialize in things like match tactics and strategy, court positioning, small tweaks to timing of the ball, and even mental parts of the game. If there are glaring mechanical errors, we will address those too.
Hobbies
Currently working here as an actor, as well (who isn’t in LA?), love playing all kinds of different sports and generally being active. Avid pianist and guitar player.
