While spending 7 days in Hawaii with my son, we had the pleasure of working with coach Yhale; he was absolutely amazing! gave good suggestions, took the time to ask questions and see if my son understood what he suggested he do to improve his skills, had a great attitude, was very positive, and was a great communicator. It is obvious he has been coaching for many years; we will definitely be going back to Yhale next time in Hawaii!

year,Yhale is amazing. I travelled to Honolulu with my daughter for an USTA national tournament and needed someone to hit with her to prepare for the tournament. Yhale made sure he knew what she needed to work on before he hit with her. He also connected her to another talented player. Finally, he came to watch her play in the tournament to support her. I wish there was a category higher than 5 stars as Yhale was more than excellent. He went above and beyond to enhance our experience in Honolulu. Thank you Yhale. We will be back next year and he will be the first person I call to make arrangements for him to work with my daughter again.

Excellent Instructor with wealth of ATP experience energeticexperience;with a, positive attitude, and personable. In a few lessons, Mark has helped me add more spin and accuracy to my serve and ground strokes. Most importantly, how to adjust and correct my game at matches Mark pushes me hard with encouraging words. I have finally achieved my dream of playing at the 4.0 level. Thank you, Mark.

My husband had a conference at the Turtle Bay Resort this weekend, so I tagged along. I was able to arrange a one-hour private tennis lesson with Hutton at the resort, which was great. He gave me excellent tips to improve my forehand and backhand, and now I am looking forward to my next doubles match to hopefully put into play what I have learned! Thanks Hutton!

I live part of the year in Hawaii and was looking for a reliable instructor who could break down the strokes and improve my game. Yhale was super reliable and really broke down my strokes to improve my game a lot. I recommend Yhale to anyone wanting to improve their game and strokes with a very knowledgeable, reliable, and patient instructor.

I booked two private lessons for my son while vacationing in Waikiki during Spring break. Both lessons were with Coach Yhale at Kapiolani Park. Coach Yhale was very pleasant to interact with and knew exactly what to work on with my son with the limited time we have. I would likely book again if we went back to Waikiki.

Thanks so much to Yhale and Mark for their excellent instruction. I'm going back home with some very helpful tips that I hope to make a permanent part of my game. I highly recommend a lesson with Yhale and his coaches!

Good instruction. I saw immediate improvement. I appreciated Yhale's effort to accommodate my scheduling requests. He was also mindful of my friend's prior injury and adjusted the lesson accordingly.

Darrel was incredibly helpful during our recent trip to Oahu. My daughter was playing in a National Tennis tournament, and Darrel was gracious enough to accommodate our short-notice request to be able to give her a tennis lesson (especially since we had some unexpected rain). His feedback was insightful and helpful as well.
