FAQ
Who is adult coaching at Stakhovsky Tennis designed for?
Adult tennis coaching is designed for ambitious recreational players, club competitors, executives and expats in Prague who want structured improvement. Coaching begins with a 90-minute assessment and focuses on the technical, movement and decision-making changes most likely to improve match performance.
Do I need to be an advanced player?
No. The assessment records your current level. The coach then builds the program around your main constraints and goals. This applies to intermediate club players and former competitive players who are returning to tennis.
Can I book an intensive if I am visiting Prague?
Yes. Private training blocks are available for players visiting Prague. Submit your preferred dates and Leonard will propose a format and schedule.
Is online or remote coaching available?
Remote video analysis is available for players who cannot travel to Prague. Leonard reviews your match footage and returns a written diagnosis with priority corrections.
How do I start?
Book a 90-minute adult performance assessment. Leonard reviews every booking personally and responds within 48 hours.
Start with a diagnosis, not a package

ViewThe research behind this approach
A controlled tennis study compared two feedback methods. Players who chose when to view individual video feedback improved their tactical performance significantly more, and retained it better a week later. The comparison group received video on a fixed schedule. (Self-controlled video feedback facilitates the learning of tactical skills in tennis)
The arithmetic of attention is simple. A strong academy typically runs one coach to four or five players in drilling, and junior group programmes often around 6:1, which works out at roughly ten to twenty minutes of direct instruction in a paid hour. One-to-one is about sixty. (Tennis schools vs individual coaching: coaching ratios in practice)

What can adult tennis coaching in Prague improve?
Adult coaching can work on one clear issue. It may be stroke form, footwork, point plans, or match choices. The first test finds which issue costs the most points. The plan works on that issue before it adds more court time.
Local players can use a long-term plan. Guests can ask for a short training block in Prague. Both plans give direct work with Leonard Stakhovsky and written goals.
