— The method
How I coach. What I measure. What to expect.
A look inside the Lab — the framework every player goes through, and the data we use to know it's working.
— Block structure
Four phases. One arc.
Every season is engineered as a sequence — designed to build, peak, and reset without losing the player.
- 01
Diagnose
We start with a full assessment: technique on every shot, footwork patterns, physical baseline, mental tendencies under pressure, and match data.
- 02
Design
From the diagnosis I build a written, time-boxed plan: weapons to sharpen, weaknesses to neutralize, the order we attack them, and the metrics we'll watch.
- 03
Drill
On-court work in focused micro-blocks. Every drill connects to the plan — no random buckets of balls. Filmed, reviewed, adjusted weekly.
- 04
Deploy
Match play, practice sets, and tournaments are treated as the real exam. We measure execution, not just result, and feed it back into the next block.
— Metrics
Six lenses on every player.
If we can't measure it, we can't improve it on purpose. These are the lenses I review with every player on the roster.
Technique
M.01Stroke biomechanics, contact point, racket path — tracked via video frame by frame.
Footwork
M.02Split-step timing, recovery patterns, court coverage and balance under stress.
Tactics
M.03Serve/return patterns, point construction, shot selection by zone and score.
Physical
M.04Speed, repeat sprint, mobility, endurance — monitored across the season.
Mental
M.05Routines, response to errors, body language under pressure, focus length.
Match data
M.06Win % on key patterns, unforced errors by shot, conversion on big points.
— First weeks in the Lab
What to expect when you start working with me.
Step 01
A real conversation
Before any court time we talk. Goals, history, injuries, calendar, family context. Coaching that ignores the human will fail eventually.
Step 02
Full assessment block
1–2 sessions of evaluation: video on every shot, movement testing, a controlled match. You leave with a written audit of your game.
Step 03
Your written plan
Within a week you receive a personal training plan: priorities, weekly structure, metrics, and a realistic horizon for the next 3–6 months.
Step 04
Weekly review
Every week we sit down with the footage and the data. What worked, what didn't, what changes for next week.
Step 05
Honest progress
No hype, no excuses. You'll know exactly where you are improving — and where you still have to suffer.
