Tennis by Dan is private tennis coaching serving players of all skill levels across the San Francisco Bay Area. Whether you're picking up a racket for the very first time or you're a seasoned competitor sharpening your game before your next match, it's built for you.
Coaching is led by Daniel Aalfs, a certified coach and former Division I college tennis player. Daniel brings years of high-level competitive experience combined with a genuine passion for teaching the sport to students of every background and ability.
Every lesson is personalized — no cookie-cutter drills, no one-size-fits-all curriculum. Lessons are structured around your specific goals, schedule, and current skill level, on San Francisco's best public and private courts, with flexible weekday and weekend availability.
Every plan is built around your goals and current level. Depending on where you're at, that means:
Stroke mechanics and footwork — the basics that make everything else easier.
Strategy and shot selection for players who want to compete.
Whatever you're working toward — we build the sessions around it, not a fixed curriculum.
