Beginner training plan
Your first lessonI start right at the beginning with everyone! That means the grip first, then we hit a bit at a short distance to see what you've got. And start talking about the mechanics of it all. Footwork, court placement, and the area you're responsible for. Then it's all about the short game. Dinking forward and cross court. We play a few dinking games. It's amazing what a little competition does to a person! If that's going well, we start with volleying. Understanding paddle position and how to improve hand speed. Now, if there's time, and I always go overtime, we will start to address serving. Rules, how to do it right and increasing power there.
Lesson 11+It just keeps going with new info and strategies depending on how you're developing! And if you're getting ready for your first league or tournament? I can help you there two. It gets much harder when you start doing those types of events. But the journey is so much fun as you learn and improve with the game. I'll teach you how to find people to play with at your level and what to expect. You'll make lots of new friends and get in pretty good shape as well! And perhaps fall in love with the game as we all do!
See ya on the courts! And let's work! Cheers! 🏓
Lesson 4-10If all is going well, we start with the same short game drills and then start working our way through offensive ways to score and better technique. Dealing with the overheads and lobs. Offensively first. Then, if you're ready, we can start with defense. If you master those other things early, you will beat most other beginners! But as they get better, and they will. It's now time to start working on defense. The third and fourth shot drops. How to defend the overhead and proper positioning. Then maybe you're ready for speed up and rollovers. Or perhaps some back hand work? I can go as slow or as fast as you need.
