Welcome to Doylestown Tennis Club

Our Teaching Philosophy and Staff

Our teaching philosophy applies the laws of physics to the dimensions of the tennis court. Our techniques eliminate wasted motion to produce more efficient strokes. We are particularly proud to be one of the very few teaching programs in the United States where all of our pros use the same science-based approach. Watch our video to learn more.

Many programs claim to offer the “best and greatest.” Easy to say…not easy to back up. This is why we have adopted tennis hall of famer, Vic Braden’s 55 years of research as our standard.

 Jim is a Certified USPTA Elite Pro with a degree in Science of Tennis Instruction from Tyler Junior College, the first accredited tennis college in the nation. Jim studied under tennis experts, Steve Smith and Vic Braden.  He has instructed at Vic Braden Tennis College as well as Florida’s prestigious Colony Beach Resort. In 1991 Jim was Pennsylvania’s “Tennis Coach of the Year”. Several of his students have gone on to play for Division I colleges.
