Beginner training plan
Your first lessonI enjoy beginners because we get to start fresh without having to undo any previously learned bad habits. It makes the progression process evolve much more smoothly
Lesson 11+More advanced tennis trading during lessons.. Then,scrimmage matches with my other students at no additional cost. And then start planning which tournaments to sign up for
Lesson 4-10To be able to rally with ground strokes and serve the ball inbounds to start the process of playing matches
Lesson 2-3To be able to hit top spinning forehands and backhands
Advanced training plan
Your first lessonI like to spend 20 minutes watching match play against myself or a student of equivalent playing level.
Then discuss what I noticed and what exactly the student feels like they need to progress on
Lesson 11+100+ mph first serve. Also, a good slice and a good kick serve.
Proper footwork and body control for return serves.
Good volleys and good drop shots
And expect to be progressed to a level of 4.5-5.5 USTA ranking / 6.0-10.0 UTR
Lesson 4-10High level scrimmage match play for 30 minutes. Then discuss ways to approach raising our on court tennisIQ together as a team
Lesson 2-3Work on the agreed progressions and make sure we feel strongly growing as a team
Youth players
Working with kidsI have many years experience teaching orange ball and green ball players. We can start as early as age 3. And as late as age 86.. there is always something that can be improved on the tennis court. Teaching beginners youth tennis is my favorite experience in coaching. I really enjoy the dialogue and feedback from their thoughts and abilities and we grow stronger as a team through these lessons and learning one another.
Working with teenagersWith experienced teens I like to play a lot of scrimmage matches so we can implement the things we are working on together and test out various strategies for improving.
And with beginner teens, I like to start with basic forehand drills until the ball starts coming off of their racquet with topspin while landing in because once they feel that part, the backhands come so quickly. It’s all uphill from there. The beginning stages become very fun when we are progressing so frequently (every lesson we grow and learn something!) and that’s a guarantee I like to stand by!
What you need to bringHydration, sweat towels, tennis court (or basketball court) shoes
What I can bringI provide all the necessary equipment for tennis practice and lessons. If you have your own racquet and bag, feel free to bring with you. And if you forget yours, I always have extra on site.
