Meet Your Mentor Tennis Director, Rod Pearson.

  Hi, I am very excited that you have chosen tennis as your sport. Tennis is often referred to as “The Sport for Life”. This is true at so many levels. Not only for the enormous health benefits. But it can be played at virtually every stage of life. I have taught students from the ages of 4yrs old, through 94yrs young.

    I have over 26yrs experience in the Piedmont North Carolina area as a professional tennis instructor. I currently have and maintain 2 certifications as a professional tennis instructor: Nationally and Internationally recognized USPTA (Professional Level) and Nationally recognized USNTA.

    My professional tennis instruction experience includes: Hanes Park (public), Old Town Country Club (private), Westwood Swim & Tennis Club (private), Bermuda Run Country Club (private). Currently, the director at Mentor Tennis Ltd. (on-site tennis instruction). My coaching experience includes Salem College women's tennis, Wake Forest University NCAA Div1 Men's tennis, and Bishop McGuinness High School girl's tennis team.

    I am and have been actively involved in promoting tennis by donating my time and skills at various ATP/WTA tennis events. Including: 5 Davis Cups, 1 Billie Jean King Cup (Formerly Fed Cup), 12 Winston Salem Open (Kid’s Days), and Arthur Ashe Kid’s Day at the US Open in New York.

   At Mentor Tennis, our instructors' goals are to help improve the player AND the person. Addressing modern game mechanics & technique, fitness, as well as the "Inner Game" and sportsmanship.

   Hope to see you on court SOON! -Rod
