Hey, I'm Malhar. I've taught in country & private clubs, as an Assistant Coach of Men's & Women's Tennis in the NCAA, and in academies and tennis centers from the USA to Australia. I also work with ATP & WTA-ranked professionals, hold certification from the PTR, and am a member of the ATPCA and Tennis Australia.

In the early years of my decade of tennis coaching, I learned how not to teach. If I'm being honest, I wasn't really educated. That changed when I was fortunate enough to meet Steve Smith & Andy Fitzell of GreatBase Tennis.

They changed my perspective on what it means to be a tennis educator and set me down a path of improvement and learning. When I teach tennis now, I synthesize their input along with the work of the best researchers on technique, tennis development, and how to improve. Notable names like Dr. Bruce Elliott, Machar Reid, Dr. Anders Ericsson, Daniel Coyle, and of course, Vic Braden.

Today, I'm the Head of Tennis at Centennial Parklands, Sydney, Australia, where I oversee a program of more than 400 players, along with a coaching staff of six. I also run a coaching business, working with 70+ players online and in person. My capabilities range from teaching beginners to fine-tuning the games of touring professionals.

During my playing days, I competed for a Top-15 ranked school in the NAIA and held the 18th spot in the NJCAA Men's National Rankings, roughly equating to a UTR of 11.

However, I believe a teacher's playing history shouldn't weigh as heavily. What matters most is their ability to teach effectively, their familiarity with the best information and resources on tennis, and how well their players hit, move, adapt, and compete. Thanks for being here and checking out my newsletter and my services.
