Just kidding. Just hi, hope the court is treating you well.

Thanks for the tips on footwork, trying to watch more tennis too and see how the pros move. Little by little. Have a good day.

I took last week off (had too much work), but my knee seems much stronger this week than last week. I am also cleaning up my footwork, definately saves a lot of effort. Working more on consistant strokes and playing smart.

At 5:47pm on April 2, 2011, Sara Fuess said…: I definately work too hard, most of the shots I had to run for just cleared the net and were at sharp angles. I was definately hitting both sides just running across the court constantly . My control like everything else, needs practice. I would barely return the ball and my opponent was putting it wherever he wanted. It's a game of catch up right now. I think part of it is I need to see look at the whole picture and be more patient instead of trying to rush everything. What do you think?

At 5:21pm on April 2, 2011, Sara Fuess said…: Hey you got to play some great tennis, get a "sick" shot in, and hopefully finished with a margarita. Now thats a great Saturday. I rallyed with a very solid young player yesterday, he ran me all over the court and I totally overworked my knee. (Injury from last year). Had a great time, but really have to play smarter. I am not one to hold back, so it will be very hard. Must rest and try again next week. It was so great to play.... no substitute for a hard workout!

Unfortunately, I'm still trying to finish up the CVAC Grand Slam tourney. Good luck buddy! I hope the weather holds up for you up there.

At 12:15am on February 9, 2011, Lera said…: Hey John,
Well I don't really need a training. I just would like to find people to play tennis with on weekends. I'm not really interested in classes. I'm not sure if this is a trial run to see if I'd be interested in signing up for classes, because I wouldn't since my income in a lil low right now. But thank you for the generous offer !
