Is this for you

This week is built
for you if…

  • You play regularly, and you can feel you have hit a plateau.
  • You want coaching that corrects your game, not four hours of drills shared with sixteen people.
  • You want to train with players at your own level, all week.
  • You are willing to work hard for one week to make a jump your club will notice.

You do not need to be an elite player. You do need a solid intermediate base. Every player goes through a phone interview before a spot is confirmed, and we will tell you honestly if the week is not right for you yet.

Fantastic padel bootcamp. Full on sessions breaking down positioning, tactics, movement and hits. The video reviews and feedback are invaluable in accelerating the journey.
Thomas MerrittGoogle review
The training was highly individualized. They took the time to identify my specific strengths and weaknesses. I came away with a much better understanding of tactics and strategy that I can already feel making a difference.
Suhail SalemGoogle review
A top-notch padel clinic. If you are really focused on improving your padel game and you want to have a great time, this is the one for you.

Straight answers

Still wondering if
Palaestra is for you?

I am coming alone.

Most players do. The group is built before arrival from the applications we accept, and partners rotate through the week by design. You will not spend eight days with the same person.

I am worried everyone else will be better than me.

That is what the phone interview is for. Every player is assessed before being accepted and the cohort is built around compatible levels. If the fit is wrong, we say so rather than take your money.

Can one week really change my game?

Eight days, 28 coached hours, one coach for every three players, video analysis every day and a progression where each day builds on the last. That is roughly a season of club coaching, compressed, with someone watching only you and two others.

Is accommodation included?

No. Palaestra Bali is coaching only. You choose and book where you stay, which keeps you free to pick your budget and your neighbourhood. We are happy to point you at where past players have stayed near the club.

Why €2,500?

28 hours of coaching at a 1:3 ratio, daily video analysis, daily recovery and massage, mental and tactical workshops, conditioning, and court time at one of Asia’s largest padel venues, led throughout by Florent, who still competes. Work out what those parts cost separately and the number stops being abstract.

These dates do not work for me.

Dubai runs 18–22 November 2026 and Koh Samui 14–20 December 2026, same method and same ratio. You can also open a private week on your own dates. Apply anyway and say which window suits you.
