Most tennis lessons teach proper technique. We teach champions how to compete, win, and thrive – on and off the court.
At The Eric Hechtman Tennis Academy, junior athletes don’t just play tennis — they train for greatness.
Led by former coach of Venus and Serena Williams as well as many other ATP/WTA professionals, Eric Hechtman, our academy delivers elite coaching, college-prep training, and world-class competition in the heart of Southern Miami-Dade in beautiful Pinecrest,FL.
From private lessons to high-performance group sessions, we build resilient athletes, not just better forehands.
- Where committed juniors train like professionals – and become them
Our programs are designed for students ages 8–18 who want to:
✔ Earn college scholarships
✔ Compete in national or ITF-level tournaments
✔ Train like professionals
✔ Push themselves beyond standard tennis education
Whether your child is already a standout or just breaking through, we meet them where they are — and take them further.
Proper Technique Meets Competitive Edge
We refine mechanics and decision-making so players win under pressure.
