"Modern Tennis is the only way to coach. Is there any other way to coach? I'm seeing beginners play before my eyes in next to no time - amazing!"
Natasha Savva - Coach to Number 1 Junior Player in Cyprus
“This is pure gold! Why haven’t I heard of this before?! It answers so many questions I have had as both a player and as a coach! Please don't tell any other coaches about this methodology! It's fantastic - we should keep this a secret!”
Jaime Cotton - PTR Pro of the Year 2007
“For me, it’s the simplicity of teaching and the results you get in such a short space of time. The best way to sum Modern Tennis up is simplicity and unbelievable results. It’s just cleared up for me, things that I’d never understood – about timing issues and things like that. Simplicity is the key. Keep it simple.“
John Bozas - LTA Coach of the Year 2004
"The more I realise that as a coach you have to know a lot but you’ve got to impart a little bit so you don’t confuse the player. And get them to do what you want them to do without telling them how to do it. That to me is what I’ve learned from this."

"Rob's tennis coaching has been a permanent fixture for our 9-year old son, Mark, for about 4 years. Mark respects and relishes Rob's all-round approach and recognises for himself the guidance and encouragement he receives and continual improvement in his game. He always insists on going, no matter what.
As parents, we are so grateful to Rob for how brilliantly he is developing Mark's game and awareness of all aspects of the sport and we'd strongly recommend Rob's coaching. "
Steve Warner, parent - Ferndown
"It is a myth in Tennis that you need to spend lots of money on individual lessons to get to a decent level. My son Oliver 5, started with mini tennis (using soft balls). After a couple of years Oliver returned to Rob's coaching classes when he was 8 and soon was once again enjoying the experience no matter what the weather, rain, wind or even snow! When he reached 10 he became more focused on Tennis and with Rob's help & expertise within 2 years of group coaching he had reached a ranking within Dorset for the under 12’s category. I would highly recommend very keen players of any ability to enrol on Rob’s effective courses."
Cherie Falconer, 3 times American Airlines Singles and Doubles Champion
"When I first started playing I had no tennis strokes, yet a few months later I had developed strong ground strokes together with a good spin serve and a winning strategy."
Jak Beardsworth USPTA Professional Coach is a 40 year veteran coach who has worked amongst others Jim Loehr (now considered the Father of Mental Toughness Training ) at the Jimmy Connors Tennis Centre at Sanibel Harbour, Florida
"I have worked with many tennis instructors over the years and Rob is a true professional not only in developing his coaching skills and in working with efficient techniques but with the often neglected aspects of working on learning and the "mental side" of the game. He can improve your game fast!"
