STROKES ARE BASED ON 'FEEL' NOT MECHANICS!
Remember the basic principles for learning tennis with my system is to develop a 'feel' for different strokes along with developing mental skills through REPETITION. Repetition of simple procedures create that 'feel' NOT an over emphasis on the technical skills and mechanics. Click here for an article that I wrote on 'feel' vs 'mechanics' in April 2001
Tom's Online Tennis Lesson
Relax in Your Tennis Match
|
I hope everyone is enjoying the French Open. There have been some fantastic match-ups. And more to come! Rafa is out, but what an incredible four-year run. Federer may just get his shot this year. He has to get by some pretty tough players though. Anything can happen!
Soderling played extremely well against Nadal and shockingly maintained this high level through out most of the match. He played with a beautiful blend of consistency, power and controlled aggression that few have mastered against Nadal.
I'll certainly pick Roger to win the whole tournament, but Andy Murray is playing well and has given Roger trouble in the past. I guess it's now possible to have two players in the finals and neither one be Nadal or Federer. The drama continues!
This month's lesson is about relaxing in your match to ignite your instinctive, automatic and spontaneous play. When you correctly relax in your match you will turn on the subconscious control that is the ideal mental performance state for all sports.

Your tennis pro,

ADDENDUM: I teach a total system of thinking in regard to stroke production and mental attitude which I cannot explain in one email. Although each lesson can stand alone you will derive tremendous physical and mental benefit by understanding the total philosophy. These emails, my web site, books, and tapes are part of a course in tennis, not just isolated tennis tips. They all fit together into a system. A system that once understood can help you not only learn tennis at a faster rate, and develop mental toughness, but also give you the knowledge necessary to help guide you and your children to a better understanding of the developmental process.
