About the Product
In acquiring and mastering sports skills, a picture is often worth a
thousand words. Research shows most athletes learn skills better
through visual demonstration than through verbal instruction. If you’re
a "visual learner," Visual Tennis may be the most natural and effective way to improve your game.
The book presents more than 200 photographs-including many of top stars
like Pete Sampras, Martina Hingis, Andre Agassi, and Steffi Graf-so you
can imprint images of flawless technique into your mind. When you get
on the court, your mind replays the images, and you develop and refine
each stroke until it matches the proper technique.
As former tennis great John McEnroe-once one of the author’s star
clients-explains it, "This book teaches the way players actually
learn." The outstanding photos combine with simple checkpoints to show
exactly how to learn essential tennis skills, from the forehand through
the serve.
Updated and expanded from the highly successful first edition, Visual Tennis
provides you with an alternative to the repetitive verbal cues so
common in tennis instruction. Leading teaching pro John Yandell shares
his proven method, which has helped thousands of players realize their
potential and raise their game to new levels.
