Tennis Vancouver- High Performance Academy by Ernesto Ponce

I have been practicing with Ernesto for over 3 months now and I see plenty of improvement in my game.Being 40 and gone through a lot of injuries over the past few years, I wanted to be able to get back to the same level I was 20 years ago when I was playing National Juniors Tournaments in Brazil and Collegiate Tennis at McGill University in Montreal.What I can say is that Ernesto’s training program is great because not only he focuses a lot on the technique aspects of your game (swings, footwork, contact point, court coverage, etc), he also provides great insights for the mental side of tennis. The combination of those attributes allowed me to play with less effort and read the games faster!The fact that we are also able to practice with a few top Canadian junior players during our sessions is also incredibly helpful!I really enjoy and appreciate our training and the constant one on one inputs I receive! I see that my game has improved more than expected. I highly recommend Ernesto’s coaching program!

Ernesto is an excellent, experienced and patient coach.What I really like about his teaching style is not a one size fits all, cookie cutter approach that less experienced coaches use.Rather his coaching style focuses more on mastery of the the fundamentals, and is more conceptual based with a focus on feeling and intuition. If you're someone who thinks more in metaphors than Ernesto is definitely the right coach for me.His professional experience as a former pro player and high level D1 college coach in the US also really shows with the depth of his tennis knowledge on not just technique, but strategy, the mental game and more.

Ernesto is an amazing coach! He has been coaching me on and off for many years now and he is so great!He has a great expertise of high level tennis and is able to share it with players of any level.Always joyful and 100% invested in his work, he is the perfect coach whether you are a beginner or a confirmed player.While we were working together, Ernesto helped me win many tournaments (9 from 2014-2016 including 2 selection series).He has more recently helped me with a two month intensive training in preparation for some Future Tournaments.Thank you Ernesto for everything!
