Testimonials

“Charlie Ellis helped lay a foundation for my tennis career by strategically guiding me through the complex web of elite tennis. Because he had walked the road before, he provided insight, wisdom and advice about how to best approach my tennis career. Simply said, we looked at the big picture of my goals for reaching the highest level of tennis and then set smaller goals to achieve them. With the physical training he advised, along with his tennis intellect and wisdom, I was able to win High School titles, become an All-American at a Division I school, and play professional tennis. I hope I will be able to counsel my students with the same support, love and toughness that Charlie gave to me.”

“Charlie is not only a tennis professional with extensive experience, but one who in fact speaks the language of a teenager. Simply put, he is a mind reader. He also is able to analyze and interpret their body language and attitude. Charlie is very influential and a natural born father figure and thus earns the respect and attention of the kids – he is critical of the behavior not of the child.”
