About your tennis coach
Beginning my tennis journey at the age of 17, I quickly became enamored with the sport despite never having held a racquet prior. Previously with a UTR of 13.3 and a PTR certification, my coaching emphasis is on the mental aspects of the game. My innate curiosity has always driven me to understand the thought processes players undergo, especially when facing challenges on the court. In my coaching journey, I prioritize fostering a resilient mindset, enabling players to navigate and overcome pressure situations effectively.

Beginner training plan
Your first lessonWe will undergo hitting every type of shot there is in Tennis to see where the player stands so I can cater their lessons to grow weaknesses. I focus heavily on technique and mechanics of how to hit the proper way and why.
Lesson 2-3We will focus on making every stroke feel like they are all equal in the sense of reliability.
Lesson 4-10As well as doing everything between lessons one through four we will focus more on competition and learning the way of not getting too phased by what a opponent can bring to the court versus them.
Lesson 11+Should be ready to take on challenges and play tournaments or match play versus others and enjoying the aspect of competition
Advanced training plan
Your first lessongoal is evaluation through live-ball play, not fundamental mechanics instruction. Start with a brief, high-energy warm-up, then transition quickly into crosscourt and down-the-line rallying patterns to assess their depth, spin control, and footwork under pressure. Finish the hour with a few situational tiebreaker points to observe their shot selection and mental composure, giving you a baseline to tailor their upcoming training block.
Lesson 2-3Weapons & Weakness Refinement
Now that i know your game, we dedicate these sessions to sharpening your primary weapon (e.g., dialing in a heavy inside-out forehand) while patching glaring defensive liabilities. Work heavily on transition game mechanics—specifically looking at short-ball recognition, aggressive approach shots, and putting away volleys cleanly at the net.
Lesson 4-10Tactical Situations & Pattern Play
Advanced players don't need to learn how to hit; they need to learn when and where to hit. Focus each of these lessons on specific strategic building blocks:
Serves and Returns: Establishing structural dominance on the first two shots of a point.
Neutral-to-Offensive Transitions: Drills where players must force an error or draw a short ball using heavy topspin or sharp angles.
Defensive Counter-punching: Learning how to reset the point using deep, looping balls or slice when pushed wide out of position.
Lesson 11+High-Intensity Matchplay & Mental Conditioning
From lesson 11 onward, the training shifts almost entirely to high-intensity, point-based scenarios and match simulation. You will introduce specific tactical constraints (e.g., "you can only score if you transition to the net") to build physical endurance and mental adaptability. The ultimate focus becomes point management, managing unforced errors under fatigue, and developing the tactical fluidity required to beat different styles of opponents in tournament play.
