Featured Tennis Coaching Highlights
We don't just teach you to hit the ball; we teach you the mindset, the footwork, and the technical drills that actually win matches.
This is what high-performance training looks like. It's about hustle, intensity, and repeating the right movements until they become second nature. We train players of all ages to move with purpose and hit with power.
My coaching goes beyond technique. I teach you how to unlock your full potential by building mental toughness. This is a lesson on self motivation and why giving 100 percent effort, even when no one is watching, is the key to becoming the best.
Tennis is 80 percent legs. I see too many players who are stiff and lazy with their footwork. Here, I explain why constant movement and intensity on your feet are non negotiable if you want to play at a high level.
I teach two numbers that will transform your game: 45 and 8. This is my core principle for generating fluid power from your hips, ensuring your body is always correctly aligned for every shot. Master this, and your shots will become a perfect 10.
I had the privilege of a one on one session with the legendary Toni Nadal, uncle and former coach of Rafael Nadal. We discussed the mental strategies and techniques needed to build world class athletes, insights that I bring to every training session at my academy.
A proper warm up is not optional. It prevents injury and prepares your body for high intensity play. This is our standard routine, which includes dynamic movements, resistance exercises, and visualization to get you ready for the court.
This is what hard work looks like. We don't just train, we build winners. I am incredibly proud of our junior player for her victory, a testament to her dedication and the effectiveness of our competitive training program.
About this collection
If you are looking for a casual weekend hit, we might not be the right fit. Our sessions are built around the '45 and 8' principle, where your hips drive the power and your court positioning handles the rest. We do not start with how you hold the racket; we start with how you move your legs, because that is where every winning shot originates. You need to come ready to work because tennis is a game you must be fit to play, not a game you play to get fit.
Tennis coaching at Tennace Academy is based on a simple reality: there are no shortcuts. Whether you are a junior player preparing for a tournament or an adult looking to sharpen your game, our sessions follow a rigorous, high-intensity structure.
The 'No Shortcut' Philosophy
We avoid boring, repetitive drills that don't translate to a match. Instead, we use tactical patterns like short cross-court angles into the open court and high-pressure serving tie-breakers to simulate real match conditions. Every session includes a 30-to-40-minute fitness block focusing on explosive agility, ladder drills, and resistance work. We ensure your body is conditioned to handle the demands of competitive play.
Technical and Tactical Mastery
We break down strokes to their core biomechanics. This includes fixing kinetic chain errors, improving hip drive, and correcting non-dominant hand spacing. For our private 1-on-1 sessions, we use video analysis to show you exactly what is happening with your swing, allowing for immediate technical correction.
Built for Mumbai
We operate at Willingdon Catholic Gymkhana in Santacruz and Don Bosco in Matunga. We do not stop for the weather. If it rains in Mumbai, we dry the courts immediately or transition to indoor drills and fitness work. Your development does not depend on the forecast.
Mental Toughness
Having discussed coaching methods with Toni Nadal, I emphasize the mental game as much as the physical. We teach you how to handle pressure, maintain focus when you are tired, and develop the discipline to keep improving even when no one is watching. This is an environment for those who want to commit, put in the work, and get results.
Tennace Academy
I am Vanshal, and at Tennace Academy, we believe tennis isn't a game you play to get fit—it's a game you have to be fit to play. I don't sugarcoat the process because I know that with the right mental game and explosive footwork, anyone can go from good to great. Come ready to work, and I will help you find your rhythm.
