What Our Players Are Saying

At Technical Tennis, we pride ourselves on creating transformative tennis experiences for players of all ages and skill levels. But don’t just take our word for it—hear directly from the players and families who’ve worked with our coaches and participated in our programs. We would like to thank everyone for sharing their testimonials.

Coach Alex was more than just my daughter’s coach; he felt like family. He was incredibly patient with the girls and genuinely cared about their development. Starting with him at a young age, he played a crucial role in shaping their game. Thanks to the solid foundation he provided, my daughters have achieved significant success in junior tennis, and we credit much of that success to his guidance.

Coach Alex is patient, attentive, and dedicated to helping young players improve. He focuses heavily on the fundamentals, creating a supportive environment while still challenging my daughter to grow in skill and confidence. Highly recommend!

Hi Coach Alex – A quick note of thanks for helping Mae grow! I was remembering back to just over 2 months ago when Mae got in the car after the first orange ball class with you, crying and feeling overwhelmed by transitioning to a new ball that she couldn’t control and felt so hard… wow! It’s a joy to see the progress for everyone in the class. A lot of patience is required at this level, but you balance high accountability coupled with high support while having fun, a hard balance to achieve. She is developing a love for tennis! Thank you!

Alex Shusis has been an exceptional tennis coach for my daughters. He has been my oldest daughter’s academy coach since 8th grade, and I am thrilled to see her now playing college ball for McPherson College. When she first came to Alex as a little girl with a late-in-the-game dream, he told us to trust him and the process, and he delivered on his promise. Under his guidance, my daughter’s skills and confidence grew tremendously, and she achieved her goals.

Not only has Alex been a fantastic coach for my oldest daughter, but he expanded his coaching role with my youngest daughter’s, and he not only is her academy coach, but also now her private coach as of January 2024. In just 9 months, I have witnessed her growth in leaps and bounds. Alex has a unique ability to connect with young athletes and bring out the best in them. His coaching style is tough but effective, pushing them to their limits while providing the support and guidance they need to succeed.

I am truly grateful for the impact Alex has had on my daughters’ tennis journeys. His dedication, expertise, and passion for the sport and the children are evident in every session. He goes above and beyond to ensure that his students not only improve their skills but also develop a love for the game. I highly recommend Alex Shusis as a tennis coach for anyone looking to take their game to the next level.

Our Alta team has been able to coach with Alex for many seasons. He continues to encourage and challenge us to do better. We love his upbeat attitude, but also his eye for improving our game. He never gives up on you! If you’re looking to grow your game, whether with improvement with technique or strategy on the court, Coach Alex is a great asset to your team or self. He makes it make sense. Sometimes we think too hard or just overthink it. He keeps it simple but real. Grow your game and love every minute doing it on the courts with him!

I picked up a tennis racquet for the first time about ten years ago, joined a beginner’s class and watched as many YouTube tennis videos as possible to learn how to hit a tennis ball. The only thing I learned was poor technique and how to injure myself on a regular basis. I decided to invest in private lessons with Alex and saw considerable improvement in a very short period of time. Alex started with the basics, breaking down each aspect of the game into easy to understand drills until I had a solid foundation for hitting ground strokes, serves and volleys. I quickly began winning more matches and within a year of lessons found myself competing for a USTA national title. Alex is not only an excellent personal coach, but a wonderful team coach as well. His teaching methods and deep knowledge of the game have helped my teams win consistently week after week.

Coach Alex has taken me from a beginner to a 4.0 in 3 years. With his coaching, I have qualified for and competed in NTRP National Championships at both the 3.0 and 3.5 level and will be competing at the 4.0 level at next year’s Nationals. His technical knowledge and passion for teaching all ages and levels is quite simply unmatched.

Taking lessons from Alex has helped me play my best, win numerous tournaments and get the most enjoyment out of tennis. In addition to coaching me, I’ve watched him coach numerous juniors and adults of all levels with similar results. His coaching style brings clarity to stroke mechanics and match strategy. Alex communicates well and uses time-tested philosophies that he tailors to each player.
