TLDR: Do not sign up! Bad teaching quality, instructor missed class, didn't give money back (after agreeing to do so). I purchased a package of 10 tennis classes with Lendale Johnson a year ago. We did two classes, and for me the quality wasn't great, compared with other multiple instructors I worked with. Lendale was more concerned about their TV career and asked me to film videos of them and talked more about them being a star than teaching me tennis. Lendale did not show up to the third lesson. I was already at the court, when they let me know they not planning to come, only after I tried reaching out. After that I had a conversation with Lendale, as it seemed like the lessons were not working and we agreed that I would get a refund of the remaining $800. Following that I had numerous attempts to receive the refund. First, Lendale let me know they were sick, then they just stopped answering. I had to file a complaint with Consumer Protection Division, after which I again got an assurance that I would get the refund. Unfortunately, I didn't end up receiving any money back and Lendale has been MIA. Please don't fall into the same situation and DO NOT sign up for these classes.

★★★★★Aaron Fouhey

Would highly recommend! Lendale is attentive, engaged and engaging, and boy does he know his stuff! After 1 lesson I was already hitting harder, deeper and with more spin on both my forehand and backhand. He fixed my slice in about 10 seconds. I have more confidence volleying at the net and after Lendale addressed my toss, my serves are staying away from the tape. After three lessons I feel like I have tools that will to bring my game to the next level if I work on them!

Lendale was a great instructor for my private lesson. Very attentive and has great energy! He was able to see where exactly I needed more help and personalized our lesson to fit my needs. Knocked 1 star only because (personally) I find it hard to navigate the website as the lesson/package purchase and appointment scheduling are separate. Other than that, I would highly recommend! I hear the group lessons are a lot of fun and can't wait to attend them.

★★★★★CJ Ferroni

Lendale is awesome. We just finished a semi private lesson as a birthday gift for my girlfriend (we were total beginners) and he was so encouraging, warm, and a great teacher. He also helped me with a lot of the logistics and behind the scenes stuff with what courts to use and booking them, etc. We are definitely signing up for more. Highly recommend!

★★★★★Suyin S

Lendale is the most amazing instructor! In just 60mins I learned more than I had learned in 2 lessons with another instructor. He taught me all the basics and I noticed my form immediately improved. In fact, he was so great I booked 10 more lessons right after my first. He's super patient and has great energy and is everything you want in a coach. I can't recommend him enough.
