Behind DLTA
Meet David Lizcano
For David, tennis has been part of his life since he was four years old. Growing up in a family where tennis has always been played and competed, the sport quickly became much more than a hobby, it became a lifelong passion.
​
As both a player and a coach, David understands the challenges every player faces because he has experienced them himself. From the excitement of improving to the frustration of difficult matches, he knows what it feels like to stand on both sides of the court. That perspective allows him to coach with empathy, patience and genuine understanding.
Â
His philosophy is simple: great coaching starts by understanding the person first. Every player has different goals, strengths and challenges, and every lesson is designed to help them grow with confidence, discipline and resilience, Â both on and off the court.
Â
Today, David coaches children, juniors and adults of all levels, from complete beginners discovering the game for the first time to competitive players looking to reach their full potential. His goal is always the same: to create an environment where every student feels supported, challenged and inspired to become the best version of themselves.

"Building Better Humans Through Tennis."
Head Coach - Founder
"Some of the most important lessons I've learned in life came from a tennis court. That's why I believe tennis can help shape not only better players, but better people."
We believe tennis is one of life's greatest teachers. The lessons learned on the court often become the lessons that shape us outside of it.
More Than
Tennis
Confidence isn't built overnight. It grows every time a player steps outside their comfort zone, learns from mistakes and keeps going.
​
That's why every lesson focuses on much more than technique. Tennis becomes a way to develop discipline, resilience, respect and self-belief. Those are the qualities that help people improve on the court and in everyday life.
