William V.

I am a Tennis Coach & Professional Tennis Instructor living in Marietta, GA. I have a unique Tennis Coaching style that allows players to evolve their Tennis game at any level. I am known as Coach V to my students. I started playing Tennis at an early age through the NYC Parks & Rec Youth Summer Tennis Program, Arthur Ashe's (NJTL) National Junior Tennis League, the New York Junior Tennis League and the Harlem Junior Tennis Program. Through these programs, I developed my skills and gained a deep passion for Tennis. Being a great fan of Tennis, I help others to reach their goals and develop a "Holistic Tennis System" to maximize students playing potential and bring fun to their game. According to me, what I believe is “There is No Right or Wrong way to hit the Ball.”
