Majaโ€™s tennis story started at an age of 5. While walking every day near her local tennis courts and watching tennis matches, to asking for her first tennis racket, Maja's exquisite talent and spirit of sport was recognized at an early age by her first coach - her Dad. Soon after winning numerous renowned tennis tournaments in her home country of Croatia, Maja began her professional career as a Junior, and continued her success in Europe and Internationally. Her tennis career was followed by a team of coaches and her family who supported her along the way and from whom she learned the key elements to tennis: humbleness, dedication, patience, and positivity. During these years, Maja had the opportunity to visit numerous countries around the world and meet people from different cultures and backgrounds, many of which are still her friends today. With an injury that paused her professional career, she was pleased by an offer from the Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD) where her friend and former European Professional Tennis player established SCAD's first tennis program. SCAD's President Paula Wallace was searching for prestigious athletes and wanted to represent SCAD not only as a No.1 Design School in the USA, but also as the finest USTA Tennis College in the United States. Maja decided to visit the University, and the following year became SCAD's Women Tennis Team Captain. She achieved a historical moment for SCAD by winning the first USTA National Championship Title in 2012. With her warm, joyful and competitive spirit, she became the first SCAD Tennis

Maja is amazing. In just one lesson she diagnosed our weaknesses, helped us improve our technique, and we finished off the lesson by nailing our serves. I canโ€™t wait for my next lesson.

Maja is an excellent coach who truly cares about her students' progress! She has a keen eye and tailors her lessons to our specific needs. It is clear that she has a passion for teaching and the sport. As beginners, my husband and I especially appreciate her patience and feeling at ease during our time with her. We look forward to continuing to progress with Maja!

Maja has not only a skill of a tennis coach but a sport psychologist. She worked so patiently with my 4 year old son, and he truly enjoyed playing tennis. Maja is very motivating and also skilled with kids tennis. I would recommend her 100%!

Youth players
Working with kidsMy passion is working with kids and my biggest asset. I get to create a player from the beginning, learning from them and adjusting our plan to their specific needs and personality.

Working with teenagersIt is a great pleasure to work with teenagers and I had success helping several of them getting college scholarships already. I know what they need and what patience, and other strategic approaches are needed to get the best out of them in order for them to accomplish their best results.

What you need to bringDefinitely a water bottle! We want to make sure you stay properly hydrated! Additionally if you have a tennis racket even better! Text me for any recommendations!
