First of all the workshop was tremendous. As a result I have been experimenting & incorporating what I learned into all my lessons, adults as well as juniors. The results have been astounding.

Mike's experience and enthusiasm for the 5 - 10 age group is obvious and I consider this one of the most worthwhile professional and personal development activities that I have undertaken.

Great to have a presenter with a sense of humour and who is so in tune with the kids learning process. It was genius, it is the best ever workshop I have been to. Everything was relevant and I look forward to applying it all.

It was fantastic to meet you last week. I so enjoyed your sessions and have already put several drill ideas into play! The rallying really does work if you provide a target within a range!! Thanks again for the great insight. I am a true believer in your methods and glad to have you as a mentor.

I've used a lot of the ideas you've shared in the PTR class I took last spring. It has made a great difference in my classes not only for the kids, but for me.

"It is very evident through Mike's energizing presentations how passionate he is about the game of tennis! His wonderful sense of humor and his great knowledge of the game make a winning combination!"
Mary Lloyd Barbera - Director of Marketing, Membership, and Special Events - North Carolina Tennis Association

Mike's innovative approach to teaching children is developmentally appropriate, visionary, and FUN! His understanding of physiology and psychology coupled with a thorough knowledge of tennis stroke technique offer the depth that places him as a leader in his field. Presentations are informative, entertaining and cutting edge. After participating in one of his seminars the learner comes away looking at the game of tennis and the opportunity to teach young persons in a completely different way. He not only inspires the learner, he motivates the individual to be even more curious about mastering the art of teaching!

The most professional entertaining, thorough, interactive and enlightening workshop I have attended in a long time.

Mike's approach is based on very sound growth and development principles and it is characterized by the progressive accomplishment of age and level specific tasks. He communicates with clarity, wit and passion. evolve9 programs are a must for anyone wanting to improve their teaching skills with young children.

What an excellent speaker. The way in which he presented the workshop and developed the relationship with the group over the three days made it very easy for me to take a lot of useful information. I would recommend this evolve9 workshop and its beliefs on tennis to everyone.
