Beginner Tennis In DFW
The D3C Approach: Create the hit you expect to see
"Tennis is simple: the basic objective is hitting the ball over the net and into the court more often than your opponent.
A good / great hit has 3 Components that control the ball. We use these 3 components to QUICKLY develop your ability to rally.
That ability is what everyone is trying to gain and improve on. It puts you in charge of a ball that will not cooperate with you."

The Three Components For Good / Great Hitting
Put your attention On the Ball
It seems like a given, but most players pay more attention to thought, not the actual ball. Attention to the ball is the first step to accomplishing hitting expectation.
Position Your Racket
The racket face dictates where the ball goes. Another ‘given’ that follows where attention is placed. Many focus on ‘grip’ rather than racket position. An important difference when handling a non-cooperating bal.
Create Bounce
The ball is honest—it reflects what you give it. The ball will honestly go where you tell it. But what are you communicating with, the racket or expectation? The ball will always show you what you have told it.
