"I have had the opportunity to assist Christian with his professional Development over the past few years. Christian's knowledge and experience is a direct reflection of his love of coaching and tennis. His teaching methods are simple, fun and effective for all levels, ages and players. He is continually updating his skills and searching for better ways to assist his players and coaches to improve.  Christian is one of the few coaches I meet who is committed to being the best coach he can be on and off the court. Working with Christian will improve your game!"

"Both my son Tristan and I are being coached by Christian.  Tristan has gone from losing every single match to winning practically most of them within 6 months.  He is now hitting with consistency, accuracy and power.  In his own word Christian is mega-fun, motivating, knows how to explain complex technique and strokes, in one word: brilliant! After every class Tristan says to me: I wish I could play every day...
I highly recommend Christian to anyone seriously trying to improve, his results are amazing!!  He has an exceptional ability to bring out the best in children.  As for myself, I find that after a short time I improved my game by focusing on form and technique.
It's so great to work with a tennis coaching professional who really understands and is able to convey the technical aspect of an effective stroke."

"It's been my great fortune to have Christian as my coach. He has a unique coaching style. His classes are structured& focussed so that the technique becomes embedded & natural.I've never come across a coach before who practices totally what he preaches so there's always a mirror image of what you're trying to achieve. On top of this his enthusiasm, encouragement, endless patience & support are matched by his wonderful sense of humour.  The future of tennis is in safe & exciting hands with coaches like Christian"

"Christian has coached my family and I for over 6 years. To my children he is a part of weekly life and he is thought of like a member of the family. Between my son and I we must have had at least 10 coaches so we believe we have a basis for comparison. Christian is the best all round coach and we would all attest to his consummate professionalism, charm and excellent character"
Lucien Farrell

"Christian has been my tennis coach for the last 4 years and over that time my game has improved immeasureably. His game looks great, giving me something to aim for, but he is also a patient and engaged teacher. It's important to him that my game develops and he takes time and effort to make sure that I learn things well.
Christian is one of life's optimists, always full of energy and enthusiasm, even when it's cold, damp and windy - pretty important when teaching in the UK. This means I always end my lessons more energised and upbeat than when I started.
Anytime anybody asks me to recommend a tennis coach, I always recommend Christian, without hesitation"
Adam Balon

"Rays of Sunshine was delighted to have been selected at the charity to benefit from a tennis tournament organised by Christian Gallan's LOVEtennis in 2011.  An amazing amount of time and effort was put into making the event a huge success.  Christian’s passion inspired the local community  to lend their  support and donate refreshments and raffle prizes.  The LOVEtennis commuity embraced the occasion and volunteered to barbecue lunch, sell raffle tickets and assist in making the day run smoothly.  Not only was this a huge amount of money raised for Rays of Sunshine, but this was a wonderful opportunity for members to socialise and play tennis. The success of the day saw £15,000 raised to improve the lives of seriously ill children In the UK"
