Marbella has become one of the leading destinations in Europe for tennis training. With its climate, facilities, and year-round outdoor conditions, players from around the world travel here to improve their game.
However, many players spend countless hours on court without a clear development system. Improvement is not simply about hitting more balls. It requires a structured process built around technical development, physical preparation, tactical understanding, and measurable performance indicators.
A professional standard, built around the individual
At Mikhail Kukushkin High Performance Tennis Academy, our approach is based on the standards of professional tennis.
“Long-term success comes from consistency, discipline, and individualization.”
After more than twenty years competing on the ATP Tour, I learned that long-term success comes from consistency, discipline, and individualization. Every player has different strengths, weaknesses, physical characteristics, and competitive goals.
For this reason, we do not follow a one-size-fits-all methodology. Each player begins with a detailed assessment that defines the development plan from day one.
— Every player begins with
- Technical fundamentals
- Movement efficiency
- Physical capabilities
- Tactical awareness
- Competitive performance patterns
Based on this evaluation, we create an individualized development plan designed to maximize progress.
Who the programs are for
- Competitive junior players
- ITF-level athletes
- International tournament players
- Professionals preparing for competition
- Players seeking long-term development in a professional environment
Training takes place in Marbella, Spain, one of the best locations in Europe for year-round tennis development.
The objective is simple: create a system that allows every player to train with purpose, measure progress, and perform at their highest level.
