ABOUT VTA

Visnja Tennis Academy (VTA) was founded in May 2018 in Valjevo by a former WTA professional player and ITF Level 2 Certificated coach Visnja Vuletic. VTA is highly recommended by the World No. 1 Novak Djokovic who was training with Visnja as a junior, describing Visnja as a dedicated tennis professional who unselfishly shares her knowledge with her students; inviting tennis players and enthusiasts from around Serbia and abroad to join her programs.

VTA has over 70 players already, successfully organizing two tournaments in the first year. Although VTA was formally established in 2018, Visnja Vuletic has over 15 years of experience as a tennis coach and sparring partner. Visnja gained invaluable tennis knowledge in the most famous Tennis Academies around the world (Rick Macci Academy&- Florida, Tennis Academy of Asia-Bangkok, Nicky Pilic Academy-Germany, Bresnik Academy-Austria, Michael Krstic Academy-Germany and David King Tennis Academy-Germany). In her career she defeated Justin Henin (1. WTA) and Jelena Dokic (4. WTA). Visnja was the champion of Serbia in all categories and one of the best junior playes in the world. She won over 100 trophies and her sparring partners were Novak Djokovic, Nenad Zimonjic, Janko Tipsiravic, Ilija Bozoljac, Ana Ivanovic, Jelena Dokic, and many other players from the top 50 in the world. As a coach, she worked with some of the best juniors and seniors in Serbia and abroad – including WTA players. She is eagerly sharing all her expertise by training young talented tennis players, with the intention to help them in pursuing their dream of becoming top players. Visnja worked as a coach in Thailand, China, Germany and Usa. Moreover, in the past years, players from all over the world have been coming to her weekly and monthly professional tennis camps in Serbia.

PHILOSOPHY

“Extent of achievements and success is measured by the volume of belief in oneself.”

Perseverance, dedication, hard work and commitment are necessary elements that have to co-exist alongside talent and caliber. Mental strength is defined by a strong belief in oneself followed by the continuous concentration and it can be attained only through solid will and steady energy. Balance of these components enable the accomplishment of the utmost potential. Mere talent does not suffice and is not enough to reach the top. More importantly, high quality working process, adequate surrounding, the right team that works in the appropriate and professional way and psychological support are all crucial factors. There are many segments that are required for the peak results, however without the basic principals, advance point can’t be achieved.

Novak Djokovic

“I know Visnja for over 20 years and I can say she has always been an amazing athlete and exceptional competitor. We trained very seriously and earnestly together both tennis and fitness for a number of years, moreover great results speak for themselves. Unfortunately, Visnja had a difficult injury at the most inconvenient time when she was very close to attaining the very top. As a coach, she is still in excellent shape and she plays on a high level. She is utterly devoted to her work, transferring knowledge and quality that she posseses unselfishly to the younger generations.”
