Former tennis pro Gary Adelman draws on movement studies in the Alexander Technique and the Japanese martial art of aikido to teach us how to work with our true opponent on the tennis court: ourself. Using hands-on movement, meditation, breathing, demonstration, drills, discussion, sharing, and state of the art video feedback, we learn to let go of the tension and extra effort in our tennis game that keeps us from realizing our full potential.

We also discover how to: use the ground to produce more power; move more swiftly and with greater ease; gain greater accuracy in our shot making by getting out of our own way; and have a great time in the process.

Players at all levels of experience are welcome.

Gary Adelman played professional tennis from 1977 to 1983, competing against players such as John McEnroe and Arthur Ashe. He has taught his system to the tennis teams at Princeton University and Babson College, and currently teaches tennis in the Berkshires of Massachusetts. Adelman is also a certified Alexander Technique teacher in practice for 14 years. tenniswithouttension.net
