Performance Tennis Academy

My kids always look forward to tennis lessons with Charles. He focuses on skill development, while ensuring that the lessons are fun and challenging. He effectively breaks down the skill being taught so that my kids understand what to do (and why). It is exciting to see my kids improve under the direction of Charles. I highly recommend Performance Tennis Academy.

Charles is an excellent coach with lot of patience. My daughter started playing with no knowledge about tennis but now she is in love with tennis. She has been playing from last 2.5 years and is always excited to go to the lessons. We feel welcomed by the coach everytime.

My 7 year old daughter just completed the 4 day tennis camp with Charles and we are amazed at how far she has come in this short amount of time. She has learned how to perfect every type of stroke, as well as serve. We were very impressed with Charles’ teaching methods. The imagery he uses for children and the progression of steps he goes through to teach each skill are beyond any other teaching we’ve seen. My daughter left each day saying how much fun she had and how lucky she is to have a great coach like Charles to teach her.

My son has been taking lessons with Charles consistently for the last 5 years. With Charles' coaching, motivation and patience, he learned the fundamentals of tennis, greatly improved his skills and learned to love and enjoy the game. Now he beats his Dad all the time when they play together.Charles is an outstanding coach. Highly recommend!

I first started going to see Charles and Performance Tennis Academy in Abbotsford in May of 2014 on a recommendation of a friend. At that time, I was just getting back into tennis after not playing much for 20 years. Within a short period of time my tennis game improved dramatically. One year later, I was fortunate enough to win a men's tournament because of Charles' coaching. His lessons are a lot of fun and his methods of teaching are easy to understand and implement.My son started taking lessons from Charles in 2015 and, in just a few short months, he was able to hit with me at a consistent level. The improvement was remarkable.I would highly recommend getting lessons from Charles no matter your age (child, teen, adult) or skill level (beginner, intermediate, advanced).

Charles is simply the best tennis coach in Abbotsford! My son has been working with him for 18+ months and has experienced tremendous results. Not only does Coach Charles make the learning fun but also challenges the kids to improve and push for their best!

My son started with Charles about a year ago and we are amazed at his technical progress and ability to play, already. Charles has a very calm, intelligent and encouraging way about his teaching. He is very friendly and extremely competent in his skill. My son trusts and respects Charles as his instructor. We are very grateful to Charles for all that he is teaching our son of tennis (and life!) and, as well, for all he is stretching and inspiring in him.

My son has been playing tennis for 4.5 years. We started lessons with Charles a little over a year ago. I am so happy we found him. My son came home after his first few lessons and was amazed at how much better he understood the game and was able to recognized where he needed improvements. Right down to holding his racquet. Charles has an amazing way of correcting and encouraging the kids so they want to be better tennis players. He sees the potential in the kids and really pushes them to try their best. The kids are never bored during his lessons. He keeps them engaged and active. The kids listen to him and stay on track.

We started out putting our kids in tennis just for recreational fun and now are full blown into tournaments and playing tennis daily. Charles was able to see the potential our kids had and took them from beginner level to champ level in just over 1 year. His knowledge and experience in the sport shows through his teaching techniques. He genuinely cares about getting to know your kids personally and wants to see them get to their full potential. It's not just a job to him it's his passion.

Charles has been teaching my son for about two years now, and I am very impressed with his knowledge and expertise. He provides great instruction and a variety of drills and game settings. My son isn't always motivated, but Charles does his best to get him involved and be part of the group.It is very obvious that Charles really enjoys the game of tennis, and wants each athlete to develop to his/her fullest potential.I would highly recommend the Performance Tennis Academy!
