Beginner training plan
Your first lessonI first take inventory of they're equipment. And make sure they have proper court shoes and socks. All clothing fit loosely for comfortable range of motion. And take them through a casual on court warm up to allow them to loosen up before any on court training.
Lesson 2-3I usually repeat the same process from first lesson. I find this will allow them to develop a consistent routine before any on court training.
Lesson 4-10At this point I will have a custom list of hitting exercises in place. And I'll repeat these exercises consistently through 4-10. This will greatly increase they're ability to adopt to hitting forehand and backhand ground stokes.
Lesson 11+I will gradually check and test they're hitting techniques. I've always had great success with bringing beginners along slowly to help them develop range of hitting motion as well as grip position memory. Again I find this allows them feel comfortable during the development of basic ground stokes. And increases they're confidence when moving on to more advanced ground stokes and devoloping their serve. Before we move on to learn how to learn to keep score.
Youth players
Working with kidsStarting with a very fundamental approach. And consistently teaching the basic tennis skills of proper tennis court equipment equipment. A)tennis racket size 2)tennis court shoes (proper fit). 3) proper loose fitting attire.
And teaching tennis ball striking techniques.
Working with teenagersMeasuring they're level of experience is the first important step. This will determine the level of tennis instruction begin to move them to a higher level of progressive techniques in tennis ball striking and foot work movements during ball striking exercises around the tennis court. Introducing them to real time tennis court strategy and being able to learn how to properly serve and implement different scoring strategies. All while encouraging confidence and motivation to learn and having fun along the way. Enhancing positive on discipline.
What you need to bringHave tennis court shoes and socks. And have they're own tennis racket. I do have tennis racket rentals (reserve at time of registration)
What I can bringI supply all level tennis balls and teaching/training equipment.
