What people say about us
Thanks so much for a great two weeks of training! Despite my several years of history tennis, I still acquired an abundance of new knowledge from you, ranging from the left hand placement to the three finger technique on the serve. The boating trip was awesome as well, and I’m looking forwards to my next time at your academy!
Kai
Thank you for pushing us and allowing us to train in a concentrated, intense environment. My serve has improved tremendously and I appreciate that you took the time to take me aside and teach me the fundamentals of playing in the wind. Thanks for everything, and I hope I can return to the Hobson academy soon!

Dear Ashley and the Hobson family! I want to express our deepest and most heartfelt gratitude for everything you have done for Elona. The environment you provided her over these past few years has profoundly impacted her life. It has nurtured her growth not just as a person, but also as a friend and as a tennis player.
