* 14 Hours of Customized On-Court Assessment and Training (4.5-5 Hours per Day): We will create a customized schedule just for you, featuring multiple small-group training sessions (4:1 coach-to-athlete ratio) built around on your level and the objectives you identify in advance. Drawing from the elite ranks of renowned teaching professionals as well as the international tennis tour, where we’ve recruited some of the most accomplished Grand Slam champions, coaches, tour players, and Davis Cup participants, you will have the opportunity to work under the close guidance of approximately six to eight coaches with unique and proven expertise in the areas you have prioritized.
* 10 Hours of Elective Specialized Off-Court Workshops (3+ Hours per Day): Because success in tennis is about more than hitting a good ball, we offer you a choice of off-court classes with world-renowned experts on topics ranging from strategy, mental conditioning, fitness, nutrition, and equipment to supplement your core training plan.
* Your Own Personal Head Coach and “Team”: To help you process and apply all that you’re learning during the event, you’ll be matched up with a personal Head Coach and core training “team” at the start of the Congress. Daily training sessions with your team and Head Coach will provide opportunities to practice and reinforce ideas from specialized classes. On the final day, your Head Coach will help you prioritize post-Congress goal-setting and action steps.
* Personalized Fitness Guidance: To help ensure that your program is in tune with your body’s capabilities, elite trainers with the International Tennis Performance Association (ITPA) will be available throughout the weekend to help you assess your strengths and limitations. Then they will steer you towards the best classes for your unique needs and recommend the most effective pre- and post-match exercise, drills and sample workout routines to take home.
* Access to Video Class Highlights on the Edufii App: We are partnering with Edufii, a social network for skills development, to enable you and your team members to capture and share key takeaways on video so you can retain knowledge and accelerate your improvement after returning home.
* All Meals and Special Evening Programs: The sessions may be intense, but once the racquets go back in the bag it’s time to relax, recharge, and socialize with your new tennis friends. The 2016 program includes dinner on Thursday-Sunday nights as well as breakfast and lunch Friday-Sunday. We also have a number of group activities planned to keep the fun going!
* Special Extended Program Option: Real-Time Match Play Analysis and Coaching (Monday 8am-Noon): Due to popular demand, this year we’re offering an extended option that enable you to apply lessons learned into match situations in a non-judgmental setting while benefiting from real-time match play analysis and coaching (singles or doubles) for 4 hours on court on Monday. To provide an intimate coaching experience, two coaches will be on every court (2:1 faculty-to-athlete ratio), enabling coaches to interact constantly with players. Note: this program is limited to 56 athletes and requires advance sign-up during your registration
