If you are restricted to the indoors, practice your racquet skills or rally with a balloon, stuffed animal, etc. Don’t forget to take advantage of this time for cross training, such as yoga, stretching, strength work… As you can see, Auggie loves our downward dog best. Have a great day.
Today, we graduate to rallying over an object. Since all tennis courts are closed, select any object that is appropriate height. Auggie was sunning and somewhat confident that we would rally high enough and not hit her. Be well.
Today, we add direction to the rallying skills that we have practiced. Judy will hit crosscourt and Cos will hit down the line – making a figure 8 pattern. Don’t forget to turn your shoulders and set the racquet to your target. Use a wall if necessary. Have fun and be well.
At Home With PRC, Episode 6: Today, Lauren joins us and Judy explains the importance of keeping your eyes and head still while catching the ball. This same move will carryover to your tennis. Practice this with a partner or toss to yourself. Be well.
Today, find a high wall or curtain and add your racquet to yesterday’s motion. After all this time…you thought Cos was the “balanced” one! Be well.
Today, we focus on the service motion: rotating the hips, loading the weight on the back leg, turning and exploding up and keeping the head behind contact. As you can see, even Auggie loads on her back legs. Practice this at home. Be safe.
Today, Judy provides tips and an easy exercise to improve your ball toss for your serve. Auggie is back, by popular demand. Stay in the match and be well.
We are back! Hopefully, you practiced and enjoyed the racquet drills from yesterday. Continue these each day, increasing your repetitions. Today, add a family member or friend. If that isn’t possible, use a wall. Have fun and maintain your “grip”.
Today, we start a new series, At Home With PRC. While the club is closed we hope to “visit” you and share tips to help you improve while you are off the courts. As you can see, we do not rehearse! We miss you. Be well.
With respect to Governor Murphy’s request and consideration of the health of our tennis community and staff, PRC will close on Monday, March 16th at 8:00 pm and remain closed until further notice. All junior and adult clinics and contract courts are suspended immediately. Please check the PRC webpage and Facebook for updates. We wish…
