Beginner training plan
Your first lessonMy first priority is always to put a new student at ease. I’l begin by introducing myself, then asking a few questions about their goals, athletic background, and any prior experience with Tennis. Once they’re comfortabe, we’ll do a short warm-up and then jump right into some light rallying so I can obsere their movement, timing, and overall skill level From there, I’ll introduce the foundational shots every player needs, using a mix of drills and mini-games to keep things fun and engaging. Each lesson ends with clear “homework” to practice before the next session. Above all, my goal is to connect with the student, make learning fun, and set a strong foundation for their Tennis journey.
Lesson 11+Once the fundamentals of Tennis are established, lessons 11 and beyond will shift toward refining technique, learning advanced shots, and improving strategy through live match play. We’ll focus on shot selection, anticipation, court positioning, and communication with partners. Every session will include tailored coaching to address individual strengths and weaknesses, plus more structured game play to simulate real match situations. At this point, the student is not just learning how to play Tennis, they’re learning how to play it well, how to think better and better on the court, and how to have more fun as they sharpen their skills and gain experience.
Lesson 4-10As students gain confidence, lessons 4 through 10 will focus on being able to keep the ball in play and introduce basic strategy and best practices. We’ll build consistency in baseline rallies using their forehand and backhand, and begin to introduce serving as well as how to volley at the net. Each lesson will include skill-appropriate drills as well as fun games so that students can immediately practice and apply what they learn. By the end of this stage, students will not only understand the flow of how Tennis works, but also begin to understand basic strategies to use when they go and practice on their own.
