"I have been playing tennis for 10 years and have taken many lessons from more than a dozen tennis coaches in mainland China, Hong Kong, France, and the U.S. Kim is hands down the best coach I have had. She is obviously a great player (not many coaches have played in the main draws of all four Grand Slams!), but unlike many other former ATP or WTA teaching professionals, she also knows how to convey the fine technical points in a language that I can understand. With kids, she is strict but caring, so kids listen to her. She really cares about her job and has a dedication to perfection. I only wish that I had met her earlier - then I wouldn't have had to unlearn some of the bad habits other coaches taught me or failed to correct! Form is so important in tennis. It is critical to learn the right modern form from the beginning."
Selina Lo Founder and Former CEO of Ruckus Wireless "I have been taking lessons at Kim Grant Tennis Academy for nearly ten years. I can’t thank Kim and her coaches enough for bringing me so much joy over the years. Not only in learning how to maneuver a little yellow ball, but also in the pride and satisfaction of continuous improvement. I started tennis late in my life. Unlike other coaches I had, Kim did not focus on fast-tracking me to play “club” tennis. Instead, she insisted I develop the right form to avoid injury, improve balance and enhance coordination. She listens to my input, adapts her coaching style to my needs, yet never ceases to make my lessons challenging. Kim’s dedication to her students extends beyond the court. She responds late into the night to last minute scheduling requests. When I came into her court, she made sure the departing young students gave me (the adult) a proper greeting. When necessary, she travelled on her own time and expense to help students in critical tournaments. Kim is not only a great coach but an educator who leads with her heart."

"I started working with Kim Grant when I was 9 years old. She spent countless hours with me on the court, perfecting my technique and developing my game to what it has become today. Kim has an amazing eye for the game. She can develop game plans for a certain opponent that are always spot on. She helped me receive my college scholarship to the University of Notre Dame! I played there for 4 years and kept in touch with Kim all throughout. Now, I am pursuing a career on the professional tour and just secured my world ranking! Kim gives me amazing advice and could not be a better mentor and coach. Her experience on the professional tour herself is invaluable. Now, whenever I am in town I always go to Kim Grant Tennis Academy to train. The coaches at the academy are all very positive and encouraging, putting maximum effort into each student that they work with. The staff is always friendly and helpful with setting up lessons. They are very organized as well. I love receiving reminder texts and emails about my lessons! I will be definitely be a lifelong client!"

"I have been training at the Kim Grant Tennis Academy since its opening, and for over 10 years I have received high quality tennis lessons and endless support from the whole team. Kim is an outstanding coach, she doesn’t just work on the technical skills, she sees the whole picture and encourages her students to aim higher all the time. Through the years I have had a lot of ups and down with my game, but I never lost the motivation thanks to the support I have received from all the coaches at the academy I have worked with. Kim has a fantastic team! I highly recommend the Kim Grant Tennis Academy for players of any age or skills."
