Your first lessonWe will discuss any previous paddle/racquet experience, past injuries that may prevent full motion. While talking we will be stretching! Stretching is very important. I will observe the players while they play for a bit and make some assessments. We will discuss and practice forehead techniques. After 15-20 minutes of foreheads, we will work on backhands. I always appt the lesson with 15-20 left and allow the students to play. If they decide to continue learning we can skip playing and work more on foreheads and backhands.
Lesson 2-3Lesson two we will focus on serves and return of serves. I like to leave some time at the end of the lesson for playing. I want to see the students progress with what they have learned.
Lesson 4-10After the students are comfortable with foreheads, backhands, serves and returns, we will discuss simple strategies along with an intro to dinking and third shot drops. These skills will be covered over a few weeks as they are difficult and take time to learn.
Eventually, we will all play together and I will instruct while we play.

Lesson 2-3Lots of drilling. Repetition makes for a better player. Always playing is not always the answer! Focusing on shot making really works wonders!
