"I had so much fun with coach Juan 🙏

From my early experience in the sport of Tennis I have learned that teaching must be promoted from discipline and the joy of competing. I started playing since a was very young until l became a player with international projection, managing to be ranked 180 ITF juniors, participate in Olympic and Central American cycles, especially in the world-famous Davis Cup, adding some professional ITF tournaments alongside, where the best athletes in this sport are measured. Simultaneously, I reached a Major in THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW MEXICO and played for the team, from there I have been able to experience the teaching of tennis, now I aspire to put all my experience, knowledge and preparation at the service of the community and young people who find in sports and tennis a healthy and productive lifestyle. I have a very high level of commitment on the court, especially with early stages of learning tennis, I promote discipline as a key tool in learning. I really like to work on the mechanics of the forehand, backhand, key tool in learning. I really like to work on the mechanics of the forehand, backhand, volley, serve, slice, footwork, and the shape of the ball. I have been worked with adults & juniors of all levels.

"I’ve known Rafael since I was little, we are both from Venezuela and same age. I witnessed him starting his whole process as a tennis player even before he jumped into international tournaments, I am very lucky to be his first lesson ever. Somehow it was funny since he was coaching me with 15 years old, back then, I knew that being on the court with him will give me a good energy and vibe, he taught me what to do before matches and after matches, taught me different routines during the matches and some technical stuff. I truly recommend Rafael, no because he’s a good friend of mine, because of his dedication and love for the game.

I have been playing soccer since I was 8 years old. My passion led me to play and compete in the Central Jersey Finals for Hopewell Valley Central High School and furthermore become a 4 Year starter at Moravian College (Moravian University). After college, I acquired my certification from the USSF - United States Soccer Federation to be a licensed coach, and NASM - National Academy for Sports Medicine to be a certified CPT/PES/CES. I currently use my qualified background to help athletes become performance ready. Under my training, athletes become faster, stronger, and fitter. Additionally, I am able to help prevent injuries and accelerate any recovery process through my love of strength and conditioning. In my philosophy, I like to take a different approach then most in the realm of youth athletics. I’m attempting to change the game by taking a holistic approach to the student-athlete, focusing on the student as much as the athlete. The sole mission is to foster participants in both the athletic and academic platform with the idea of the highest levels of personal success to be achieved. This is not just a temporary fix; it is a lifestyle change and a way of life. I’m committed to community service, social change, and a better tomorrow! My holistic training approach develops athletes not only technically, but also physically, and tactically. I have helped propel athletes of all ages and skill levels - from 5-year-old recreational players to 22-year-old pros. I am committed to my craft and want to spread the joy and love that has given me so much life!
