Paul Steve Tennis

Introduction: I train on the importance of being a good person. I will never put tennis ahead of being a good person. If my students were to become great players, but are lacking character, morals and ethics, than I have failed. Being a person first and a player second is what I tell my students. Whether Wining or losing, be first to the net to shake hands. Always have complete respect for the game, the opponent and the people watching. Be the one to set the example in the face of frustration. Once you have the right perspective, then tennis will come easy, fun, and addictive! The foundation is built on rock. Everything is perspective. After I have taught students how to use their greatest weapon, the mind, how to refocus and be a mental giant. The student’s mind set will lead to flow, and then zone, the optimal state of mind every athlete wants to experience. My student’s optimal performance is a result of mental mastery. Then students become unstoppable and their opponent is at their mercy. This is why I implement this aspect, so my students will reach their full potential. It is the “most desirable entire package” that you must have to be a champion. My students receive my undivided attention, identifying problem areas such as footwork, approaching the ball correctly, early preparation, swing path and of course stroke correction. Each student receives instant analysis, the cause of any faults and then the correction. The speed of this analysis and correction is crucial to the accelerated development of the player receiving private coaching from me Here is my philosophy: I am a coach because of my passion for my work. I am able to foster the growth of my players through the numerous opportunities I am fortunate to provide. I will mold a group of individuals to communicate, to be responsible and to hold themselves accountable. I believe in nurturing their dreams to be the best on and off the court.
