About
Dedicated to Your Growth
I'm Lance, a San Jose native with over two decades on the court. My journey from competitive player to dedicated coach has given me deep insight into what it takes to improve at every level.
With a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology specializing in Rehabilitation Science from San Jose State University, I bring a scientific approach to technique development. I've coached at top academies across Santa Clara County and helped hundreds of students achieve their goals, from recreational players seeking consistency to competitive athletes reaching national rankings.

What Students Say
I can't recommend Coach Lance highly enough. He's incredibly patient and always takes the time to break down even the most complex techniques into simple steps I can understand. When I struggled with my backhand, he calmly worked with me, adjusting my grip and footwork until I felt confident. What truly sets him apart is how easygoing and approachable he is. Lessons with him are both productive and enjoyable.
