Train directly with Chris on the court and in small groups in the Summer of 2024.

There is a reason Chris is known as The Prodigy Maker, and as one of the leading up-and-coming development coaches in the country. He has personally trained numerous top 10 nationally ranked juniors with several former students now competing on the professional tour, and Chris is just getting started!

Chris is known for his tough approach and his ability to connect with a wide range of diverse students from 5 years old to college age.

Most camps may have a few great coaches, but they usually only work with the most talented players. Chris works with every player in camp and spends equal time with the beginners as the ITF and Blue Chip level kids

Come experience the difference at CLTA this summer. Kids progress better and faster under Chris’s watchful eye. No camp can match this experience!

It’s remarkable that Agassi had this compact ATP technique in the 1980s. Tremendous advantage technically with smaller range of motion swing compared to the common one-handed backhand at that time. Is it any wonder why there are only ~45 one-handers left in the ATP top 1000? This type of two-hander is shorter, quicker, and more stable. Big advantage returning serve and in today’s high speed baseline exchanges.
