How can you help someone improve their game?
Essentially, I seek to get input from the player to assess where they are presently at in terms of the rules, fundamentals, and skills. I deploy are multifaceted play to improve using hands-on skill training that mimics game situations, YouTube videos, drilling on all skills, feedback/encouragement, and video breakdown.
What does a typical training session look like?
A typical session begins by perennially connection with players relationally. Then, we start with dynamic stretches to warm up and prepare the body for a workout. I usually focus on 2 key areas (like drop shots and resets or serves and returns, etc.) Lastly, I will tie things together in a game within the game. About once are a month, I will review a video of the player. Lastly, I wrap up with some static stretches to care for the physical body.
