Proven System of Development

Our phase three development program includes private lessons, live ball training classes, and coached match-play. This system dramatically reduces the learning curve by advancing each technique into competitive play.

The challenges and struggles have a common objective: to stimulate their development as individuals and equip them to tackle decision-making with confidence and success, which can only be found through hard work.

We embrace the competitive spirit. The development program aims to enhance players' tennis skills by streamlining the transfer of technical skills to competitive matches. Our program enhances tennis technique and understanding, empowering players to become self-reliant and motivated.

TennisRVA has become a trusted pathway for families and students in greater Richmond.

PRIVATE LESSONS

In private lessons, each student focuses on the following two short-term goals from their development goal sheet. Students work one-on-one to understand each skill before linking them to create a complete game.

Once a skill is understood and repeatable, students move to Hit lessons to try each skill in a live ball situation.

HITTING LESSONS

One-on-one Hitting lessons involve two students with similar short-term goals. Students typically spend 75-90 minutes working on the skills from their previous Private Lesson in this Live Ball Lesson.

Once a student can comfortably use the skills learned in their previously learned skills in these Live Ball Lessons, they will move on to a Coached Match-Play lesson where they put the final touches on their newly acquired skills.

COACHED MATCH-PLAY

Coached Match-Play is the final step of the cycle for each newly acquired skill. In a coached match, students will play against a similar-level player to test their newly acquired skills.
coached matches are regularly stopped, and points are replayed to ensure their knowledge and details are transferred into competitive match-play.

Evaluation Lesson

Our program puts students in the sweet spot: that productive, uncomfortable area beyond their current abilities. Here, students reach and exceed their grasp. Effective practice is not simply about struggling; it's about seeking a particular struggle where students make mistakes and then are forced to slow down and correct them.
