Juanma is one of those people who knows when, how, and above all, what to say whenever you bring him a question about life and, of course, about what connects us most: TENNIS.
His way of communicating is always calm, clear, and positive. Every point he makes confirms the experience behind his words and the deep understanding he has of all the aspects a great coach must master.
As I have said many times, Juanma Esparcia is one of the best tennis coaches and sports consultants in the world. But most importantly — and I truly mean this from the heart — when you spend time with him, you realize you are in front of a great person. The kind of person who makes you feel heard, understood, and valued in every conversation.
So, beyond being an admirable professional, in my case, he is a great friend.
Congratulations, Juanma!

Juanma is a well-established coach on the professional circuit, both men’s and women’s, where he has been working for many years with top-level figures.
He opened my mind and helped me trust myself more, take risks, compete in bigger tournaments, and step out of my comfort zone.
Now, after my experience as both a player and a coach, I realize that every training session helped us improve. We knew that every session he organized served a purpose—to make us better in some aspect of the game. Working with Juanma was easy from day one: his way of explaining the game and his endless patience ensured that every training session contributed to our improvement. From a technical standpoint, he is among the very best, and every minute spent with him was used to the fullest.
