Olli Rahnasto
I started my professional tennis career in 1983. When I was younger, I competed not only in tennis, but also in various other sports. I won the Finnish Championship in speed skating (an unofficial world record in my age group), triple jump and Finnish baseball. I finished my professional tennis career in 1995, and pursued a career in coaching, both nationally and internationally.
A comprehensive understanding of different sports and human movement, combined with the mental strength needed to succeed on a professional level in tennis, are the backbones of my coaching philosophy.

My teaching and coaching revolve around the human balance, correct posture and core – elements found in e.g. classical ballet and other sports and their training methods.
As a coach, I strive to identify innovative and comprehensive ways to learn tennis – both in theory and in practice, throughout the journey from beginning to play, to advancing as a player.
