1 actionable piece of advice and expert guidance designed to elevate your tennis 🎾 — in 4 minutes or less every Monday.
I will never spam or sell your info. Ever.
Hey, I'm Malhar. I've been teaching tennis for more than a decade and have worked in country clubs, public facilities, as a NCAA collegiate coach, and also with professionals with ATP & WTA points.
On my website: you can learn more about me, subscribe to my popular newsletter, and get an understanding of my philosophy and how I can help to improve your tennis. Thanks for being here.
Understand Your Flaws. Change. Improve
Video doesn't lie. Getting your stroke analyzed is one of the best ways to understand if you have technical flaws holding you back.
Derrick Taylor
Head Coach of Men's & Women's Tennis, Wingate University, Nationally-Ranked Top 10 NCAA Div. II Programs
“As a college coach, we are always looking for ways to help our players improve. Malhar’s knowledge and analysis will be a big factor in our team’s success now and in the future. We look forward to watching our players develop even faster with his help.”
Adam Taylor

"Technical expertise. I'm looking to maximize my game in every way and working with Malhar has helped me clean up my one-hander and also my serve mechanics. I was surprised how much detail he was able to provide. But it was simple enough for me to understand. I recommend it. I'm hitting better now because of our sessions."
Jamie Lau
WTA #1544 Singles
“When Malhar pointed out my issues on my serve... I was surprised. I didn't know that I had these problems. He gave me an explanation for why I should change. And now I have a practice plan in place to make my serve better.”
Tailored, Consistent Guidance on Improving Your Game and Performance
I want to be clear about what my principles are and attract the right kind of players. Here's what you can expect if we work together:
Personalized, Science-Based Improvement Plan
Most players practice incorrectly. Think about practicing as building myelin and motor patterns through deliberate practice. You have to progress through the Blocked, Variable, and Random stages of practice. But you must also factor in skill acquisition, refinement, and consolidation.Â
Logic, Physics, Statistics, and the Shape of the Court
These should be the driving principles for stroke production and playing tennis. And coaching and teaching as well. Everything has a rationale and an explanation. 0.005 Milliseconds, Aggresive Error Margin, 19.6 Degrees, and More.Â
Magic Bullets & Secret Sauce
If you're looking for the secret sauce or some "YouTube Guru" to transform your game... you're in the wrong place. Lasting improvements come from your effort. I'm here to guide, assess, and support you with my resources and teaching/coaching skills, but the hard work is yours. Change and progress aren't always straightforward, but that struggle leads to improvement.
How Do Virtual Private Lessons Work?
Using footage you send me of your strokes, practice, matches, or even YouTube videos—we'll meet live via video software for guidance and feedback on the physical, technical, tactical, and mental/emotional facets of your tennis. Includes live video analysis, stroke breakdowns, how to change your strokes & motor patterns, matchplay analysis, tennis mental skills, and more. You'll also get a recording of our session.
