Meet Our Staff

Dana Joseph, Tennis Head Professional
Dana has been playing tennis for over 25 years and has over 10 years experience teaching both juniors and adults. She began her career at Deer Creek Courts in Highland Park, Illinois where she created the Events Program, which consists of Club Tournaments, Junior Team Matches, Junior Tournaments and Adult Socials.

Area of Specialty
Dana's area of specialty is with juniors. She has developed and directed an all day tennis camp for the last seven summers. This 7-week camp (two sessions) exposed the campers to all different types of recreational sports with the emphasis on tennis. She also enjoys working with the young juniors to build confidence in a sport they can enjoy their entire life.

"The goal of our tennis lesson program is to nurture a "love of the game" and provide a foundation of sound mechanics for our students to build on and enjoy for the rest of their tennis careers. Our curriculum is a blend of the science of hitting the ball, strategy, and healthy competition."
