Exposure to Professional Players: The No Quit Tennis Academy players and parents are offered opportunities to meet and interact with professional tennis players and high-performing individuals through our partnership with the Inspiring Children foundation. Thanks to this dynamic program, in partnership with Bob and Mike Bryan, and Grammy nominated artist Jewel, our student athletes are exposed to extraordinary opportunities and leadership speakers.

No Quit players have met the Bryan Brothers, Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic, Andre Agassi, Andy Murray, Ana Ivanovic, Martina Navratilova, Donald Young, Billie Jean King, Steffi Graf, John and Pat McEnroe and many more! They’ve even had a chance to collaborate with Jewel, countless CEOs and Senators, Hall of Fame athletes, musicians and even a President of the United States.

What is “The Process”? It is an awareness of the steps necessary to develop and excel at certain disciplines. All practices are designed around this central principle. The Academy uses a progression of technical instruction to develop the players’ games through this step-by-step, process-based learning. Players develop true confidence in their games and a strong technical foundation. Our program also emphasizes emotional and mental strength training in addition to the technical and physical training.

Each coach works with no more than 2-4 students on a court and is given 1-on-1 time with students to ensure that every student understands where they are in their development, and has a clear understanding of the steps they can take to improve.

We believe and have proven that a team-centered approach to training and travel not only inspires a heightened sense of competition, camaraderie, and high-performance expertise, but serves as a positive social interaction that significantly decreases the burnout that is common to elite tennis players.

Developmental Plan: We understand and support parents being a significant force in the tennis development of their children, and we encourage parents to attend and participate as we identify target areas for improvement over the course of the player’s development. Every year, players are given numerous developmental planning and evaluation sessions.

USTA Guidelines/Progressions
Hand Feeding ⮕ Racquet Feeding ⮕ Live Ball
Closed Environment ⮕ Open Dynamic Environment

We follow the USTA’s guidelines for progressions closely. We believe in never skipping steps, and only moving forward with a child’s development when they have mastered the progression and understand the skill.

Every practice session is carefully planned out. Tim is constantly fine-tuning his curriculum and lesson plans in real time to meet the needs of the players. We follow a detailed technical plan designed to both challenge players while giving them a lasting lesson which can be built upon in future practices.

Every practice, students are given:

– 2.5 to 3 hours of training, in line with USTA guidelines
– 30 mins of Leadership/Life Applicators
– 30-1hr of Fitness, Stretching/Yoga, Meditation

Tournament Scheduling/Planning & Leadership: At the No Quit Academy it is our goal to create a culture of kindness, hard work and leadership. It is expected that every student endeavors to be a leader in every sense of the word. Throughout the year students will be given the opportunity to attend Leadership Talks and retreats with top experts,  celebrities, athletes, CEO’s and thought leaders. This is possible thanks to our partnership with the Inspiring Children Foundation.

Our scholar-athletes will be offered unique opportunities to develop themselves as individuals. It is our goal above all else to create successful leaders and professionals at life.

Leadership & Life Skills: All Players are exposed to a collection of principles and values that have been proven over time to be universal truths to creating excellence. Every student that graduates the academy will be given the tools and mindset needed to be successful, fulfilled and the best they can be. 

Nutrition: In our program we believe “Eating Right = Feeling Right.” We expose our athletes to the best nutritional plans, foods and supplements. Even our vending machines only hold the healthiest food options - They are both delicious and make players feel good long term.

All players are given a course in proper nutrition for daily life, athletic competition, maximizing energy, minimizing illness and injury.

• Sleep Patterns: We also inspire athletes to master their sleep cycles, and to plan practice and tournament preparation around this very important science. All players are taught the science and the value of rest and recovery. 

Fitness: The Academy is devoted to the highest quality fitness with the least amount of impact on bones, muscles and joints. We have an in-depth fitness program that is practiced every single day, and is incorporated into drills in the training. We also provide the players with a complete strength and conditioning program designed to target areas important to tennis development.

Recovery: Our Academy believes that emotional, social and mental strength training are equally important as any other training. For this reason we spend time focusing on recovery and restorative practices like Yoga and Meditation. As part of their training, twice a week a Yoga instructor will conduct classes designed to release tension and build strength and energy through calming the mind and stretching the body.

Psychological Training: In order to develop oneself as an exceptional tennis player and human being, one must be psychologically, emotionally and mentally strong. For 20 years, the Academy has helped elite athletes to rise above and overcome inclinations to give up by emphasizing emotional & mental strength. We’ve helped countless players who were burnt out to rediscover a passion for the game, which allows them to do extraordinary things. Most of our players continue to play tennis after their professional and collegiate careers because they think of their sport fondly. This is in stark contrast to most academies - where athletes are not given the psychological skills to deal with the adversity & stress of the game.

College Scholarships & Pro Tennis: Every player who has graduated the Academy’s TEAM BRYAN Training & Travel Team has earned a college scholarship. We are proud that 100% of our graduated youth have received scholarships.

We have also had success developing professional tennis players. Most recently Asia Muhammad, Kimberly Yee, and Naomi Cheong have developed under the No Quit Academy’s Guidance.
