Hi! I’m Ernesto, a tennis coach originally from Spain with over 20 years of experience as a player and coach. I played NCAA Division I college tennis in the U.S. and have coached players of all levels—from beginners picking up a racquet for the first time to nationally ranked juniors aiming for college scholarships. My coaching style is all about adapting to your goals—whether that’s learning the basics, improving match confidence, or taking your game to a competitive level. I focus on technique, strategy, and mindset, but most importantly, I make sure each session is engaging, challenging, and fun. Let’s hit the court and take your game to the next level!

"Coach Earnest is truly exceptional. From the very first session, he’s made tennis both engaging and genuinely fun for me. What sets him apart is his sharp focus on fundamentals—he doesn’t just let me hit balls for the sake of it. He carefully identifies bad habits, corrects my posture, and helps me build a solid tactical foundation. Every lesson feels purposeful and tailored to my improvement. Thanks to his guidance, I not only enjoy the game more, but I also see real progress in my technique and confidence on the court. I can honestly say I see myself becoming a much stronger, smarter player under his coaching.

I’m a certified PPR Pickleball Pro with a deep passion for teaching and inspiring players to elevate their game. Over the past year, I’ve had the opportunity to work with both small groups and larger clinics of up to 18 participants, which has been incredibly rewarding. This year, I earned the US Open Singles 4.0 Gold and the APP Silver Medal in Doubles 4.0. Looking ahead, I’m excited to compete at the Nationals in Arizona this November with my sights set on the Gold Medal, and I’m committed to turning PRO within the next year. My focus is on delivering top-notch technical guidance and game insight to empower players to reach their full potential.
