Private tennis lessons in Raleigh, North Carolina

"We're so lucky to have found Coach Allen! Our five kids have a weekly clinic with him. They love him and can't wait to start their lessons. He provides one-on-one time with each student while the others are practicing drills. He controls the lessons with patience, firmness and good humor and the kids happily follow his instructions. He's a former Middle/High school teacher and knows how to handle groups to keep them engaged."

"Coach Allen is wonderful - literally, the Yoda of tennis instruction. I recently had a private lesson with him and it was the best tennis experience in my life. He makes the game so simple yet has breakthrough modern tennis methods to help you play like the pros. Highly recommended!"

Allen is a great coach who I was able to learn from pretty much immediately. His verbal and visual cues were working for me to identify immediately where my problems areas were coming from. He took a brief moment in the beginning to understand what my goals were and was able to quickly understand what level I was playing at. Overall will be good to see how I progress through my ongoing lessons with Allen

He was very thorough and broke things down in a way that I could understand — he asked about my learning style and was able to communicate in such a way that things clicked! I recommend Allen to anyone looking to make small changes that give big results!

I’d say the lesson with Allen was quite good, mainly because he’s very patient and thorough, which I appreciate. Still, I think more practice of the basics could help me build a stronger foundation.

Allen has been a great coach. He's very knowledgeable. I've had noticeable improvements in just a few lessons.
