Racqueteering

 Technical improvements are created from the ground up: footwork, speed, balance and position. The swing needs a foundation otherwise there is no repetition and improvements take longer.  Most tennis teachers understand the basic swing, some understand the kinetic chain. I know these things and use them in the larger context of readiness, movement, preparation, load, explode, recover. These all blend together into a smooth rhythm that allows tennis to mindlessly flow from your body. Tennis players speak of being in  "The Zone", a state of mind that lets the body anticipate every move, execute every stroke. Tennis requires many hours of practice, hitting a thousand forehands, two thousand backhands. You can't play in "The Zone" until you have invested in the game.

I teach the modern game, strokes that explode with pace and spin, serves that jump or curve, volleys that penetrate, the physics, geometry and strategies of tennis. I understand how bad technique or unsuitable equipment causes injury and pain, how proper technique provides power without effort, how to train, how to stay healthy.

Take some lessons, advance to the next level. Enjoy tennis and have fun.
