Tennis isn’t just hitting balls; it’s about your legs, your focus, and your drive. If you’re looking for easy, this isn’t it. ### What Makes My Approach Different - Fitness comes first. No boring jogs, we do tennis-specific fitness drills that build raw power and explosive footwork training. You’ll feel the difference in how you move on court. - I push you mentally, not just physically. Building mental toughness for athletes is huge here. You’ll learn how to stay calm under pressure and develop real self-motivation, not just hype. - My drills focus on making you think, react, and play with intensity. We break technique down, teach you how to use your body to hit that solid ‘phatka’ (big whack), and make your serve and smash weapons, not just routine shots. ### How We Build Winners - We run in-house matches to prep you for real tournaments. Our coaches, like Raghunath Gupta and Kiara D’souza, know elite tennis coaching methods inside out. You’ll get tips that actually work, from strategy to gear. - Not for casual players. If you’re a committed junior or competitive adult ready to grind, you’ll fit right in. No shortcuts, just straight-up work. If you want to get better, I’ll help you get there. ## Highlights Browse through Tennace Academy's best work. ### [Featured](https://mytribe.in/tennace_academy/high-performance-player-training/featured) - [Video: This is what high-performance training looks like.

Tennis, for us, starts with 'Love' – and honestly, we mean it. We're more like a family than just a bunch of players. I learnt early that your mind is your strongest weapon, and that’s what I try to teach – even had a chat about it with Toni Nadal once! We just hit one year, opened another spot, and I love seeing our players grow – not just with trophies, but with real confidence and discipline. Parents see it too. Happy faces, big wins, good vibes – that’s the goal. ### My work - **Professional Tennis Coaching for All Ages**: We coach kids, teens, adults – total beginners to regulars. Focus on technique, tennis-specific fitness, and mental game. - **Fun, Intense, and Patient Coaching Style**: We keep things friendly and fun, but we push you. Master your forehand, get your 'phatka', nail the basics with energy. - **Tennis-Specific Fitness Training**: You gotta be fit to play! We do loads of footwork and fitness, so your body matches your ambition. - **Rain or Shine Training**: Mumbai monsoon? No problem. We dry courts fast or shift indoors for fitness and drills. Game never stops. - **Two Mumbai Locations**: Find us at Willingdon Catholic Gymkhana (Santacruz) and Don Bosco High School (Matunga). ## More services from Tennace Academy - [Junior Tennis Programs (Kids & Teens)](https://mytribe.in/tennace_academy/junior-tennis-programs-kids-teens) · ₹2,000-7,000 per month (estimate) - [Adult Tennis Programs](https://mytribe.in/tennace_academy/adult-tennis-programs) · ₹400-800 per group session (estimate) ## Experts similar to Tennace Academy on mytribe - [High-Performance Tennis Program by Belief Tennis Academy](https://mytribe.in/belieftennisacademy/high-performance-tennis-program) · ₹10-25K per month (estimate) · Anjuman - I - Islam's A.A.K.
