Here's what others have had to say about Ramey Tennis School.
-
"My teenaged daughter attended a tennis camp for juniors at Ramey Tennis School last summer. It is not for the faint of heart! Ms. Ramey demands a lot of her campers, and because of the high expectations she set for them, they had a very rewarding week. It was refreshing to watch someone from the "old school" work so well with young teens. They are not pampered, but worked long and hard, and their tennis game will improve. My daughter also gained maturity and came home more responsible than she had been just a week prior."—R.W., Int., April 2011

"Mrs.Ramey did an awesome job with me and my friends. We learned SO much in the little time we were there. I, personally, gained so much knowledge of the game it was absolutely incredible. The lodging was very hospitable and the food was excellent. Lots of one-on-one time with instructor and learned so much. Definitely recommend Ramey Tennis School for any level and any age."—J.H., Low Int., November 2010

"I had a great time at Ramey Tennis school. I learned a lot of valuable tips to strengthen my game. I really liked the fact that we had a number of instructors and we were able to get a lot of individual attention. The drills were really fun and I liked the idea that we got video taped. I was able to find my weaknesses and improve them greatly."—S.C., Low Int., April 2008

"The instruction was great. The one on one oppurtunities were very helpful. Also the filming of our shots helped understand what we needed to work on. It was hard work but it was an amazing oppurtunity and I would go back if I get the oppurtunity."—R.W., Int., March 2008

"This is an awesome camp with very professional instruction. The video helped my understanding of the correct form on all shots. The food, lodging, and teaching were all absolutely amazing. Your results (as were mine) will be phenomenal. I recommend this to anyone that wants to move their game to the next level of competitiveness. However, this isn't a resort, come prepared to work your butt of each day as you improve. This is a 5 star camp. Thanks for my improvement Ms. Ramey."—J.S., Adv. Int., June 2007

"My son has been to two camps put on by Joan Ramey in Owensboro, KY, and I have to say, he has gained so much knowledge from each camp and has improved his playing ability!!!!!
Mrs. Ramey has a wealth of information, as she has played and taught for so many years, and she conveys her knowledge to the students in a way that they understand and apply the new concepts, whether they are beginners or more advanced trying to change a bad habit.
We would highly recommend anyone, kids or adults to come to one of Mrs. Ramey's camps!!"—J.N., Beg., May 2006
