Our Parents and Players Say it Best
“I started attending Valter’s evening clinic and taking private lessons at Billie Jean King Tennis courts a couple months back and saw massive improvement in my game/play in a short timespan. Valter not only knows the game like the back of his hand, he knows how to tailor his instruction to the individual he works with. If there are certain aspects of your game you are looking to improve Valter comes up with a lesson plan to hone in on what you are aiming to improve. He is flexible with planning private lessons and is very responsive in general. Attending his evening clinics/my lessons are highlights of my week and give me something to look forward to.
If I could give more than 5 stars I would. I highly recommend contacting Valter if you want to have fun and improve your game regardless of your playing level.”

“We love Valter and all of the coaches we’ve met so far! My daughter decided that she wanted to play tennis shortly after she turned six years-old. We started with a few private lessons then she decided to do the tennis academy in the mornings over the summer. She loved it! I really like that they offer an after-school group practice during the school year too so they don’t lose what they’ve learned. The other kids she’s in group with are all so nice and encourage each other. It’s become a bit of a second home for us now. Valter is incredibly patient with the kids, especially in the private lessons. And the coaches who help run the larger groups are all awesome, super patient and make it really fun for everybody, regardless of your level of play. I highly recommended Valter Paiva Tennis Academy to anyone looking to have fun, learn tennis and/or improve your game.”

We were referred to Valter Paiva Tennis Academy by several families from my daughter’s school, all of whom spoke very highly of the program and Coach Paiva. My daughter first attended a summer camp and absolutely loved it. All of the academy’s coaches were excellent and were awesome with kids. This month, my daughter started the after school program and not only is she learning the skills that form the foundation of tennis, but she has fun with Coach Valter and his professional staff. Coach Valter and the rest of his coaches are knowledgeable and enthusiastic about teaching the sport. They have an easy rapport with kids and adults, alike. I hope that this is the beginning of a lifetime of playing tennis for my daughter, but even if it’s not, she is having fun and is learning important lessons in sportsmanship. I would highly, highly recommend Valter Paiva Tennis Academy to any child or adult considering taking up tennis or continuing to refine their skills.”
