  OUR TRAINING SERVICES  

1. Mental Training 

Once the player masters the technical, tactical and fitness components of training the next stage is to conquer the mental toughness challenge. Mental toughness is fundamental to a player's success. The player's confidence is the very foundation of mental toughness. Given the fact that a player has already mastered the physical and technical components of the game, confidence goes hand in hand with their success. Again the support and attitude of a player's family members is also taken into consideration at this stage of training. Each player will have an individual training technique that is unique to them and their particular needs. A mental toughness assessment will be conducted of each player at the commencement of this training session and then a specially tailored mental toughness program will be developed for each player.

​

Mental conditioning programs focus on the following areas:

​

  1. Decision Making

  2. Problem Solving

  3. Goal Setting, Planning and Preparation

  4. Concentration

  5. Rituals to Deepen Concentration and Relaxation

​

The ultimate goal of mental training is for a player to perform better under pressure and to be able to meet the challenges presented at tournaments.

2. Fitness Training 

The fitness program is designed to increase each player's performance and endurance. By getting stronger and becoming more flexible a player can minimize the risk of injury. We will develop specific and customized programs for each player and focus upon their strengths and weaknesses.

​

The fitness training is specific to tennis and emphasizes speed, agility, endurance, strength, balance, flexibility and stability. Each exercise is customized to improve a specific weakness identified during a student's assessment. Through proper fitness conditioning and training the goal is to turn the weakness into a strength.
