Hi welcome to my bio! I come from a very sport-centric family and have been playing tennis since the age of six at various levels. With over 30 years of tennis experience as a former college player and coach since 2007 I bring expertise in developing your technical skills, mentality, and fitness. One of my strengths is incorporating comprehensive and scientific-based nutrition advice to optimize your performance on court. Above all else my goal is to make tennis fun and competitive while fostering a love for the sport. See you on court!

I help players develop the skills that actually make difference on the field - not tricks that only look impressive in practice. Every drill has a purpose and is designed to improve performance during real matches. My coaching focuses elite ball control, speed, agility, first touch, shooting, confidence and game intelligence, teaching players when and how to use each skill under pressure. 30 years of European soccer experience, i help players become more effective, more confident and stand out.

"My son John is 16 years old. English is not my first language, so I used a translator to write this review, but I really wanted to share our experience. I have known Tomas for many years because we used to play soccer together. Even back then, Tomas was always one of the players who stood out. Now, at 48 years old, he still has an impressive understanding of the game and the ability to demonstrate the techniques he teaches. When I found out he was visiting his family in the Czech Republic, I immediately called him and asked if he could help my son. My son plays in the Slavia Prague academy as a central midfielder, the same position Tomas used to play. At this level, competition is extremely high, and my son was fighting to earn a regular place in the starting eleven. We only had three weeks during Tomas’s visit, so we made the most of it—two days a week with two training sessions per day. It was very demanding and my son was definitely sore, but the improvement in his explosiveness, acceleration, agility, and overall dynamics was absolutely worth it. Another thing that makes Tomas different is his many years of experience playing high-level futsal. His ball touch, control, and quick footwork are something he can still demonstrate himself, not just explain. That made a huge impression on my son. Watching Tomas work with him reminded me why he always stood out as a player. He understands what happens on the field and knows how to transfer that knowledge to a young player. Writing this review is the minimum I can do to thank him. I truly hope Tomas can help many more young players the way he helped my son.
