Juanma has been the most important coach of my career. He truly made the difference.
He taught me so many things that helped pave my path to success. First—and for me, most importantly—Juanma does not look at you only from a tennis perspective. He takes the time to truly understand the player: their personality, physical abilities, and mental characteristics, and from there, he adapts his way of teaching to each individual.
Second, and especially important at the early stages of a career, Juanma does not only teach how to perform on the court, but also how to behave off it. And although many young players may not fully understand this at first, it has a profound impact on on-court performance.
Finally—though no less important—Juanma is an exceptional person. Honest, genuine, and generous, he makes it very easy to build a relationship based on mutual trust, which lays the foundation for working together successfully.
I wish you all the best, my dear Juanma.

For me, there is no doubt: he is one of the coaches with the greatest experience and knowledge that I have ever known. And on a personal level, I have great affection and respect for him. He is a good friend, someone you can always rely on.
If you’re looking for a coach who can help you get the very best out of your tennis, that coach is Juanma Esparcia.
Today, I work as a coach, and I still use drills I learned from him. I deeply admire his relaxed, approachable attitude and good sense of humor, while at the same time being professional, intense, and highly effective on court.
