LEARN HOW TO TEACH TENNIS
The world famous Van Der Meer TennisUniversity courses created by legendary coach Dennis Van der Meer are now combined and revamped to encompass time tested basics and current trends. Total TennisUniversity has been the launching pad for many of the world’s top teaching professionals. However this amazing course is open to parents and players who just want to get a better understanding of the basics and improve their own games in the process. Certification by either/both of the two major organizations is optional at the end only if you want to pursue testing.
Equipment and fitness changes have led to new techniques, some of which are truly healthy advances in the game, and some which lead to injury and even surgery. Learn the commonalities of sound biomechanically-tested technique which can form a base for a lifetime of competitive enjoyment.
