 | Tennis
is actually a competition where the winner is the one that best
controls the ball, it is all about control, not hitting. In fact the
verb hit is the wrong verb for a game of control and finesse. The verb
control is the correct verb to use for this amazing sport. Stop hitting
the ball and instead control it through body dynamic motion.
I am a Tennis Canada Certified instructor, and Club Pro 1 Coach (CP1)
working
in the greater Vancouver area, and qualified to teach beginner
through to 5.0 level players. Tennis is not a racquet
sport, but a footwork and movement sport. If you are in the right place
at the right time, you get to control the ball and send it back how you
want, when you want, where you want. Move your feet and move your body. Since 2018 I have immersed
myself in the Spanish training system, and fully incorporate it in all
my lessons.
I
am passionate about teaching tennis, and my love for the sport
continues to grow as I continue to learn more ways to teach it, through a variety of sources. I am always learning and do my best for
each individual student, tailoring each lesson for what they need.
There
are 6 fundamentals that are required to build a tennis player, embraced
by the Spanish system. Footwork (balance and stability), strong
defense, strong
consistency, weapons, physical attributes to grind out long points, and
the willingness to do so. This Spanish call this suffering.
I am
a black belt in
Taekwondo, run, ride super sport motorbikes, am a PADI Cetrified SCUBA
diver and participate
in other sports. I grew up playing football (soccer), a sport that
drives amazing footwork skills. Please get in contact if you are interested in learning to play, or improving your current level.
