Group clinics and weekly private lessons work beautifully for average club players, the ones who want exercise, social hitting, and a reason to show up on a Tuesday morning. 

Tennis Solved is remote personal coaching.

Here's how it works:

Step 1: We start with a private conversation. Within 5 business days of joining, you'll schedule a 30-minute onboarding call with me. We'll talk about your goals, your frustrations, your current level, and most importantly, we'll identify the ONE thing that's holding you back the most.

Step 2: You get a personalized Action Plan. Based on our conversation, I'll create a personal Action Plan specifically for you. This isn't generic advice, it's exactly what YOU need to work on, how to practice it, and what to focus on first. Here's an example of a student Action Plan:

Step 3: You train and get ongoing support. You go practice with your plan. When you have questions, when you're not sure if you're doing it right, when you need guidance on your progress, you submit questions through the member portal. You can share video of your practice, too, but it's not required.

Step 4: You get rapid, targeted feedback. I respond to every submission within 48 hours. Sometimes with detailed written analysis, sometimes with video explanations, but always with personal, actionable guidance on what to adjust and how to keep making progress. Here's an example:

Step 5: Your plan evolves as you improve. As you master one element, we move to the next. As your game improves, your plan updates. This isn't a static "course" you consume on your own. It's dynamic coaching that adapts to your progress.

Here's what I've discovered after over 20 years of coaching players at every level:

Most improvement happens between lessons, not during them. The real work happens when you're practicing on your own, implementing what you've learned. That's when you need feedback the most. That's when questions come up and that's when you need someone to tell you if you're on the right track.

With traditional lessons, you get one hour of feedback, then you're on your own for a week (or longer). With Tennis Solved, you have ongoing, real-time support throughout your entire improvement process.

The biggest problem isn't technique, it's knowing what to focus on. Experienced players already know what good technique looks like. What they don't know is which specific element to work on first, how to practice it effectively, and how to sequence their improvement. That's exactly what your personalized Action Plan solves.

You can reference your guidance whenever you need it. Instead of trying to remember everything from a 60 minute lesson, you have written plans and personalized videos you can reference whenever you practice, something you'll never get from your local coach. 

You get more coaching time for less money. Private lessons run $80 to $150 an hour in most US cities and MORE than that in major metro areas. That means $297 buys you two or three hours of coaching on a local court, once. 

Tennis Solved gives you three full months of personal coaching, 48-hour written feedback on every question you ask, a personal Action Plan, optional video analysis, and access to my full lesson library for the same price as half an afternoon with a local pro. 

The help and attention to detail was unlike anything I have ever seen. I would give the whole experience a 10 on a scale of 1 to 10. I would personally be shocked if there was a better virtual experience out there."

Using his practice plan, I improved the quality and depth of my backhand. With that single change I'm staying in the points longer, getting more opportunities to use my weapons, and winning about 2 more games per set. I couldn't have understood how this one improvement would change my matches more than all my previous attempts to tweak everything. That's why having a coach like Ian I trust is so valuable.

Tennis is hard enough. Give yourself the quickest route to improvement."

Over three months I made several specific technical changes. I learned to generate more penetration without sacrificing spin or consistency. I corrected my back leg kick, stopped falling excessively to the left after contact, and cleaned up my mechanics. The feedback was very detailed and specific, which made it easier to know exactly what needed to change.

My second serve is in a much better place now. It feels more stable, more balanced, and more effective in actual match play. I'm getting better depth and penetration without sacrificing safety, and I feel much more confident stepping up to hit a second serve under pressure.

What stood out to me was how individualized and technical the coaching was. This was not generic advice. The instruction focused on specific corrections that directly translated into better results on the court. The encouragement from the Tennis Solved community was an invaluable motivator on top of that. If someone is serious about improving their tennis."

The biggest change was video evidence of what is going on, paired with knowledgeable review. After meeting with Ian, reviewing footage, and following the action plan, I found a clarity during match play that literally bought me time during points. The doubles specialist on my team told me the anticipation I have now is shocking even to him. I've reached a state where people I've looked up to are praising my play, all in just a few months.

I started these 3 months as a singles player playing doubles. The focused training has made me a tennis player who craves doubles. Leagues, tournaments, I can't get enough now.

Tennis Solved is the best thing on the internet, hands down. Focused, true, and unbiased training around the fundamentals. This is not for those who want to just go out and hit balls hoping for changes. Tennis Solved is built for those ready to put in the work, get uncomfortable, trust the process, and create explosive forward momentum in their game."

I can make this guarantee because I've been helping players break through plateaus for over 25 years. I know what works and I know that when you get the right guidance, targeted to your specific needs, improvement is inevitable.

A: This isn't a course at all. Tennis Solved is personal coaching. Instead of watching pre-recorded videos made for everyone, you get personalized analysis and action plans created specifically for your game. It's the difference between reading a book about tennis and having a coach who knows your specific challenges and can guide you step by step.

A: Not at all. While video analysis can be helpful if you choose to share footage, the core value comes from your personalized Action Plan and ongoing written guidance. Many members get tremendous results just from having a clear plan and being able to ask specific questions about their practice and progress.

A: The member portal is incredibly simple and straightforward. If you can send an email, you can use Tennis Solved, and if you ever have technical questions, I'm here to help with those too.

A: That depends on your goals and schedule. The beauty of Tennis Solved is that it adapts to your pace. You're not trying to keep up with a course schedule, you're working at your own speed with ongoing support whenever you need it.

A: We can work with whatever court time you have available. Part of your personalized plan will include practice exercises you can do at home, and we'll maximize the improvement you get from whatever court time you do have.

A: Tennis Solved is designed for competitive adult players. If you're serious about improvement and willing to work on fundamental changes, this will work for you regardless of your exact rating or age.

A: If you're getting great results and want to continue, you can renew for another quarter. If you feel like you've gotten what you need, you can stop anytime. There's no long-term commitment beyond the initial 3-month period.

A: Most players start seeing improvements within the first 1-2 weeks of following their personalized plan. Remember, you're not just getting information, you're getting targeted guidance for your personal situation, which accelerates improvement dramatically.

I came to Tennis Solved for my volleys. I knew a lot of what I should be doing, but execution just wasn't there. I'll admit I was a little disappointed that Ian's plan took me way back to the beginning, but that is exactly what I needed. The foundations were essential, and I found it so satisfying to see how much I improved even in those early weeks by following what he said.

Within a month of regular, targeted practice, I found myself able to consistently hit touch volleys, something I could never do before. Getting quick, specific feedback from Ian, even a few times a week, made a huge difference. He often picked up little details from my videos that I had not noticed.

The Tennis Solved community has been amazing too. The other students are supportive and encouraging, and it's really inspiring to see their progress as we cheer each other on.

I would 100% recommend Tennis Solved to anyone who is serious about their improvement. If you're ready to invest the time, you will find yourself with new insights and breakthroughs."
