Tennis For The Rest Of Us: A Practical Guide For The New, Nearly New, Newly Frustrated Or Nearly Discouraged Tennis Player (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780615201436)

Dave Kocak has been teaching tennis for 30 years. He has taught in resorts, public courts, private clubs, beginner kids, beginner adults, nationally and internationally ranked juniors and coached at the Division I college level. Tennis is fundamentally a simple game-- not easy but simple. It took a simple guy like Dave to figure out how to best teach it to those who don't consider themselves talented or athletic but do want to have fun, get some exercise and see real improvement in their tennis game. He is fond of saying that "I have never failed to teach anyone how to play a decent game of tennis, although a few students quit before I was finished." Since no books existed that covered all aspects of the sport, and certainly none that included his teaching methods, he decided to write one. It's been so well received he is writing the follow-up: Tennis for the Rest of Us Part Two -- OK, So now I'm Hooked. How do I get Good? He currently lives and teaches in Buffalo, New York and is available to be flown to private lessons in London, Paris, Rome and Monte Carlo.
