As Head Coach at Bath Tennis Club, I offer both individual and group tennis lessons for players of all ages and abilities as well as coaching at several schools in the Bath area. My particular interest is in technical analysis and stroke production. This involves getting the most out of your shots in a compact motion that both optimises spin, power and control. Most importantly, my tennis lessons are highly enjoyable and taken in a relaxed and friendly environment.

Coach Accreditation is the LTA’s professional membership scheme for coaches. Being accredited ensures that a coach is qualified, insured and meets safe-to-practice standards, such as first aid and safeguarding training. An Accredited+ coach also commits to a minimum of 15 hours of professional development training each year.
Qualifications range from 1 to 5 and indicate the level of formally-assessed training a coach has completed. Coaches begin the LTA Qualification pathway at LTA Assistant (Level 1) and are able to train up to Master Coach (Level 5), the highest available LTA qualification. When choosing a coach we recommend taking into account qualifications, experience and ongoing CPD training, which can be seen in their 'Recently completed training courses' tab.
All coaches displayed on this tool are committed to delivering tennis to people of all backgrounds including disability, faith, gender identity, race, sex and sexual orientation.
