How it works

Three steps. No travel, no guesswork.

01

Film & send

Record a match or practice from behind the baseline and send me the link with your goals and level.

02

I break it down

I study your patterns, positioning, shot choices and mechanics, and record a voice-over video walking through the key moments.

03

You train with a plan

You get your top priorities, drills to fix them and a practice plan, so every session on court has a purpose.

What you get

Feedback built around how you actually play.

  • Strategy: the patterns that win you points, the ones that lose them, and what to play instead.
  • Positioning: recovery, court coverage and where you should be standing on every type of ball.
  • Technique: the one or two changes in your strokes that will make the biggest difference.
  • In your language: feedback in English, Portuguese or Spanish.

Every analysis includes

  1. Recorded video breakdown with timestamps
  2. Your top 3 priorities, in order
  3. Specific drills for each priority
  4. A simple practice plan for the next 1–2 weeks
  5. Follow-up questions answered by message

About your coach

Hi, I'm Lucas Cruz.

I grew up competing at the top of Brazilian junior tennis, played college tennis in the US and spent six years coaching in California and Seattle, growing into a head coach role. Today I coach in Salvador, Brazil, and work with players around the world online. My focus is simple: show you what's really happening in your matches and give you a plan you can actually follow.

Players I've worked with

What students say

The serve was always my biggest weakness. Lucas analyzed my video, showed me the arch was coming entirely from my lower back, and gave me simple fixes. Keeping my front shoulder higher was something I had never paid attention to.
Fábio BobelAdult club player · Bahia, Brazil
I love training with Lucas. He gives me lots of important tips, and on top of that I have so much fun and laugh a lot!
Helena MeirelesU12 high-performance player · Salvador, Brazil
Lucas helped take my game to the next level. He gave me tips and advice on improving my fundamentals, match play and mental toughness. On top of that, he is a lot of fun and engaging.

FAQ

Questions

How should I film my match?

Put your phone behind the baseline, as high as you can (on the fence or a tripod), filming the whole court. Landscape mode. Match play is best, but a competitive practice set also works.

How do I send the video?

Upload it to YouTube (unlisted) or Google Drive and send me the link through the form, WhatsApp or Instagram, along with your level and what you want to improve.

What level do I need to be?

Any level from intermediate club players to juniors and college players. The feedback is adapted to your goals and experience.

How do I pay?

US players pay via Zelle and players in Brazil via Pix. Other countries: message me and we'll sort it out. After you fill out the form, I'll send you the payment details.

Does this replace my coach?

No. It works best alongside your regular practice and can give you and your coach a clear set of priorities to work on.
