Testimonial

I had the pleasure of working with Peter Lawal recently, and I can honestly say that it was one of the most positive and transformative experiences of my life. From the moment we began working together, my coach was incredibly supportive and knowledgeable. He took the time to get to know me, my goals, and my strengths and weaknesses as a tennis player. With that foundation in place, He was able to design a training program that was tailored specifically to my needs and learning style. Throughout our sessions, my coach was endlessly patient and encouraging. He always had a positive attitude and a willingness to go above and beyond to help me improve. He was quick to provide feedback, both on what I was doing well and where I could make improvements, and he always did so in a constructive and helpful way. Thanks to my coach's expertise, guidance, and support, I was able to make significant progress in my tennis game over the course of just a few months.

Through his patient and focused approach, my coach helped me identify areas for improvement in my technique and footwork. He provided targeted feedback and drills to help me correct my form and build strength and consistency in my backhand. Under his guidance, I gradually gained confidence and accuracy with my backhand, and I saw real improvements in my game as a result. His dedication to helping me improve was truly inspiring, and I am grateful for the time and effort he invested in me as a student. Overall, I cannot recommend this tennis coach highly enough. His expertise, passion, and commitment to his students are truly unparalleled, and I feel incredibly fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with him.

Coach Peter helped me improve my serve, which had been a weak point for me for years, from my grip and stance to my ball toss and follow-through. He helped me make small adjustments to my technique that had a huge impact on my overall performance. Not only did this coach provide me with invaluable technical guidance, but he also helped me develop a more strategic approach to my serving game. He taught me how to read my opponent's body language and adjust my serve accordingly, which has greatly improved my accuracy and consistency on the court. Thank Peter. I am now a much more confident and effective player, and I feel like my serve is truly a weapon in my arsenal.
