The Return Of Close Pupil Cole Mogan
In this video I’m very happy to welcome back pupil Cole Mogan to the game of tennis after a three year absence. I taught Cole the game from the ages of 8-11, and now at 14 he’s getting back into the ‘swing’ of things, and hitting forehands and backhands as if he never took a break from the game, just has to get fit, be on his toes and improve on his footwork and he’ll do well in High School Tennis next coming season. For tennis instruction that will stay with you FOREVER, head over to The Tennis Vault, and get your game sharpened & polished up with our videos 
Forehand & Backhand – Kelly – London
These two videos below are priceless for me, as Kelly has never ever played tennis before in her whole life. I came to London to stay at hers and her husband my good friend Rafael’s house, to work with some Vault clients during my European Trip. She has decided to take a chance and see what she can do out on a tennis court holding a racket trying to hit a tennis ball, and the result we got today after her first time ever was amazing!! I’m so proud of you Kelly, good job!!
Forehand & Backhand – Piers Baker
These two other videos today are also from a known person from an earlier post here on my Blog, it’s Tennis Vault client Piers Baker. He is an intermediate player with lots of self taught wisdom and shot variety to put a few for sale and still have enough left to play a match with, a very versatile and crafty fella. I am now on the third city of my very First European Tour Teaching & Coaching in person, I’m visiting Piers & Marissa in Nottingham England. I met with Piers also today at the local club courts, (thank you for allowing us there), and after 3 days of 2 hour lessons on both his Forehand and Backhand, the results are on these videos. As you will see, Piers hits a big and smooth ball, cheers big man!! it was non stop fun all the lessons with you!! I look forward to coming back to Nottingham again next year!!
Forehand & Backhand – Marissa Rundle
These two videos today are of a very dear and known person from an earlier post here on my Blog, it’s Tennis Vault client Marissa Rundle. She is a total starting from scratch beginner, she has only seen my videos on the Internet and has never had any private lessons or clinics before, she has only hit balls with her husband Piers following the video’s analogies. I am now on the Third City of my First European Tour Teaching & Coaching in person, I’m visiting Marissa and Piers in Nottingham England. I met with Marissa today, and after 3 days of 2 hour lessons on both her Forehand and Backhand, and the results are below on the videos. As you will see, the sport comes very naturally for her, cheers Marissa!! Fun lessons with you!!

FH & BH in 10Min – Guilherme “Faisca”
In Brazil recently, I jump started my 9 year old nephew Guilherme’s tennis stroke’s technique. Here are his Forehand, and his Backhand, and folks, these videos below were after “only 10 minutes” of instruction on both his forehand and his backhand ground strokes. He got it going very very fast, understood all the analogies we made up together, it took him no more than 5 minutes for each stroke!! What a good job Faisca!! Good luck in your future kid!! I believe in you ma’boy!! (uncle&coach Mauro)
Sudden “On The Road To Coach Mauro”
At around 11pm last Thursday night, while watching Wimbledon recorded earlier,
I got a phone call from a Tennis Vault Member, living 15 years in England, soon to be moving back to his native India, here in USA for a two week work related trip:
*HE: Hey coach, I’m so sorry to call you so late, but it’s for a good reason!! I’m here in Pittsburgh working for a few days, but I just found out that I have the next whole 4 days off, from tomorrow Friday morning to Monday night, so I was thinking here if you had any free times for some lessons, I would fly to San Francisco to see you in person. I’m a on&off beginner player all my life, been learning from your videos at The Tennis Vault and I really like your teaching style. Now soon I will move back to India and will be playing regularly, so I want to learn “the correct strokes” the best I can, so that I will keep improving and never feel pain again (smart fella!!).
* ME: wow man, no problem…but isn’t it 2am there in Pittsburgh right now??
* HE: yes it is!! and I’m thinking about taking the 5am flight!! I’d be there in San Francisco at around 11am, be in Sausalito before 1pm and ready to go play!!
*ME: double-wow!! I’m not traveling, I’ll will be here, would be glad to help you with your tennis, do lessons in person, we can work out all 4days, 2hours/day.
*HE: OK Coach, I’ll call you back in about a half hour to confirm it all with you…
*ME: triple- wow!! you’re my kind of decisive guy… I’ll be here waiting man…
…..half hour goes by…..at around 11:45 my time I get the confirmation from him:
*HE: Coach, I got the Flight, I’m on my way!! I’ll see you tomorrow at lunch time!!
