What Pete’s Clients Say

We live in Philadelphia and wanted to play some tennis when abroad for a vacation. We found Coach Pete and WOW what a great experience. Breath taking views from his courts and he was such a pleasure to play with. He gave some great tips and even catered to us wanting to play a set by inviting another student. Great value as well. Definitely book with coach Pete.

I came to Pete for some lessons while I was visiting Cape Town. Within two sessions he taught me how to change my forehand and backhand grip during rallies which has had a significant impact on my net clearance. He is a very friendly man who is extremely passionate about tennis. It was a pleasure to practice with him on those beautiful courts.

I started with Pete having never really played tennis before. A couple of months later I can hold a rally and actually enjoy a game – which is more than I expected.He’s good at spotting what you’re doing wrong and fixing it quickly, without overcomplicating things. Lessons never felt like wasted time. Would recommend!

I can’t recommend Pete enough! Every time I’m in Cape Town, I make sure to book a session. Pete is an amazing coach.He brings such great energy on the court that every session is both fun and really effective. What I really appreciate is how he adapts to your level and focuses exactly on what you need to improve, without overcomplicating things. Thank you for pushing me ;)The setting is also fantastic, playing with the view of Cape Town around just makes the whole experience even more special.I had a lot of fun! Thanks to him and always look forward to coming back! 🎾

I had two lessons with Pete while visiting Cape Town and couldn’t recommend him more highly. He’s an excellent coach,
clear, patient and very encouraging. I saw real improvement in a short amount of time and left feeling much more confident on the court. Highly recommended for anyone looking to improve their game!

The coaching was lovely! Pete helped me improving a lot. He responds really quick, and tries to make an appointment possible even he is very busy. Had a great time there, i definitely will return! Recommend!!

Pete is an amazing coach, I feel like I progressed through a lot of what was holding me back. In the 2 months we were over for we managed to get about 5 lessons in and I feel like I progressed more in those than I had in the last 6 months of playing. He has a way of cutting through the nonsense in a kind and assertive way that really worked for me. I will be coming back when we are next over.

Pete is a wonderful coach – very patient, gives great and detailed feedback on how to improve, and is very friendly. I only wish he had more openings in his very busy schedule!

I had tennis lessons with Pete over the past few weeks, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Booking a session was always quick and effortless, which made it really convenient to fit the lessons into my schedule. Pete is an outstanding coach — he explains techniques clearly, gives helpful feedback, and always remains patient, even when I needed extra time to get something right.

The sessions were not only productive but also a lot of fun. I felt genuinely motivated every time I stepped on the court. Thanks to Pete’s encouragement and expertise, I was able to make noticeable progress in a very short time. I’ve gained confidence, improved my technique, and enjoyed every moment along the way.

I highly recommend Pete to anyone looking to improve their game with a friendly, knowledgeable, and dedicated tennis coach! :)

I’m new to tennis and was very fortunate to take up lessons with Pete from the start. He is without a doubt the best tennis coach in Cape Town, and came highly recommended by several people I know. He really pays attention and my game has improved tremendously with his pointers. His lessons are fun too; he’s the warmest most engaging coach out there. I’ve made tremendous progress over the past year and a half and can now get through a match without too much embarrassment! Thank you Pete for getting me up and running and for continuing to tweak my game!
