The Story Behind Engineered Tennis

My name is Brandon Tran — founder and coach of Engineered Tennis. I’ve always believed that mastery in tennis isn’t built on endless repetition, but through understanding — the mechanics, timing, and flow behind every movement.

I currently work as a Software Engineer, and that technical mindset is the foundation of how I coach. The same principles that make great systems — clarity, structure, and efficiency — are what make great athletes. I see tennis as a network of connected parts: footwork, tempo, racquet path, and timing, all engineered to work in harmony.

What makes my coaching different is my commitment to problem solving through mechanics. Most players — and even many coaches — stop at general instruction. I go deeper, identifying the root cause of breakdowns in timing, energy transfer, and body coordination. I do the heavy lifting — analyzing, refining, and rebuilding so players can finally feel what efficient, effortless tennis should be.

Over the years, I’ve coached players of all levels — from young juniors developing strong technical habits to advanced athletes refining elite-level mechanics. What started as a passion for understanding motion evolved into a structured method that merges engineering logic with human performance.

Engineered Tennis is built on one principle: improvement isn’t random — it’s designed. Every lesson is structured around precision, feedback, and cause-and-effect learning so players understand why their strokes work — not just how to hit them.

My goal is to help players build a complete foundation — not just stronger shots, but smarter decisions, deeper confidence, and mechanical awareness that lasts. Whether you’re a beginner building your first rally or a competitor chasing the next level, I’ll help you develop a blueprint for your best tennis — one that’s engineered, tested, and entirely your own.
