"I was never the best at Table Tennis, but John Alto was more than just a Table Tennis coach. Having played for 6 years since I was 10 John didn't just teach me how to swing a racket but also drilled in me many life lessons that I take to heart till this day. He's one of the best coaches/teachers I've ever had and works amazingly well with everybody, from young kids to adults.

Highly recommended, no questions asked."

"I highly recommend John Alto as an exceptional table tennis coach in San Diego. With a USATT rating of 2400, John is a top-tier player and coach, bringing elite-level expertise to his training sessions. His extensive experience, gained through years of competitive play and coaching, makes him adept at working with players of all skill levels, from beginners to advanced competitors. John’s coaching style is strategic and personalized, focusing on enhancing techniques like spin control, footwork, and match tactics, while addressing each player’s unique strengths and weaknesses.

John is known for his clear communication, patience, and ability to inspire confidence, creating a dynamic and supportive training environment. His high rating reflects his deep understanding of the game, which he effectively translates into actionable advice for his students. Many of his trainees, including myself, have seen significant improvements in their skills and competitive performance. John offers private lessons at competitive rates and can be reached through the SOCAL. For anyone in San Diego aiming to elevate their game, John Alto is an outstanding coach."
