Discover Your Ideal Two Handed Backhand Style: Revolutionize The Way the Two Hander is Taught

Description

Many players have suffered by having been taught in a cookie cutter style, where a coach teaches only one style, and if the players can learn it, great, but if not, then they have a problem. Thanks to the work of John Yandell who identified these four styles, that are now within the parameters of the USTA Player Development department, I began to study how to teach these. More importantly, you will see that this is an athlete centered approach, and each player decided which style they thought best. The data shows that they chose wisely, as each player had a magic moment where they really connected with a ball.

It was exciting to make this course, as each player that is shown had no previous experience with me on court. Thats very important, because it would be easy to fool you by using players that I had worked with for many years. Amazingly, we were quite fortunate to capture each of the magic moments on film, so that you could see the manefestation of each player delivering from their ideal style. Off camera there was some hooting and hollering as people stop and stay WOW, when each player showed how effitient their ideal style worked for them.

Whether you are a player, coach or parent, this video can revolutionize your understanding about how players differ, and why you should not often try to model your game after someone who has different laterality, spin preference and the like. The course is meant to be interactive, and you can send me an email question about any video. Also, you get a 20 minute one on one talk on an appointment basis with this course. schooloftennis@gmail.com
