Course Content FOR PLAYERS

  • Why Is Tennis Such A Mental Sport?

    We start by exploring why tennis is often referred to as a "mental" sport and how psychological factors influence your performance.

    Discovering Your Player Type

    Know yourself to improve yourself. We'll help you determine your playing personality—whether you're an aggressor, a defender, or an all-courter—and how to harness your natural style.

    Identifying Your Pattern Of Unforced Errors

    Missteps on the court tell a story. We'll find out the nature of the unforced errors you typically make under pressure to better understand the mental lapses leading to these mistakes.

    Setting Goals For Improvement

    Goal setting gives direction to your efforts. We'll lead you through the process of setting smart, realistic targets for both your mental game and overall tennis performance.

  • Improving Your Focus On The Court

    Fine-tune your concentration with techniques that keep you locked in from the first serve to match point, helping you stay engaged and perform consistently.

  • Dealing With In-Match Feelings

    Tennis can be an emotional rollercoaster. Learn strategies for keeping your cool and using your emotions to your advantage, preventing frustration and anger from dictating your play.

  • Facing Down Mental Blocks

    We all hit walls; what matters is how we scale them. This session teaches you how to identify and overcome the mental blocks that limit your game.

    Playing Freely

    Unshackle your play from the confines of overthinking and anxiety. Experience the freedom of playing instinctively and with trust in your skills.
