Mastering the Split Step for Court Control

This program focuses on improving court control and stability through the effective use of the split step technique in sports, particularly tennis or similar racquet sports. We'll combine weight shift awareness with split-step execution and optimal positioning, incorporating game-like drills for practical application.

Understanding Body Weight and Balance

This module explains the fundamental concept of how body weight distribution affects stability during dynamic movements. It emphasizes the importance of synchronizing hand and body weight for optimal control. We will work on static and dynamic balance to build your foundation.

Weight Shift and Balance Drills

Daily

Become aware of your weight shift and practice balancing. Feel how your weight distribution changes as you move. Enhance your stability and correct imbalances.

Executing the Split Step

This module demonstrates the split step technique itself. Focus on the forward and upward movement and the first three steps. We will react to random directions, increasing reaction time.

Split Step Reactive Drill

Daily

Practice the split step repeatedly, reacting to random cues and directions. Improve your footwork, timing, and reaction speed.

Optimal Positioning After the Hit

This module emphasizes the importance of moving one meter inside the court after hitting the ball. We will practice the full sequence in a game-like simulation to increase accuracy and consistency

Full Sequence Game Simulation

Daily

Combine the split step with forward movement to reach the optimal position after the ball is hit. Play points and focus on accuracy and consistency in each rally.
