The Bailey Method 2-day or 4-day Intensive Footwork & Movement Clinics are highly customized, personalized programs, for just 1-4 players, working on court with Dave Bailey. The program commences with a personal analysis of each player's movement on court and then the training is tailored to the player's individual strengths and developmental needs. The program concludes with a video analysis and a comprehensive written report to take home for use in ongoing training.
Ultimately, the Bailey Method offers four levels of Intensive Clinics that are ideally conducted over a 12-18 month period and become increasingly personalized in developing and polishing players strengths, building their tournament Playbooks and honing their ability to fluidly strategize under tournament conditions.
Level 1: Fundamentals
Level 2: Strategy & Tactics
Level 3: Patterns of Play
Level 4: Creating a Personalized Playbook
In the Level 1 Clinic, players learn the fundamentals of great tennis footwork and movement, and the Golden 12 Contact Moves of tennis. Players immediately start discovering and developing their own movement and footwork strengths on the court.
Every Level 1 Intensive Footwork & Movement Clinic includes:
- Digital Lead-In Pack – Our Fundamental Footwork Pack (3 videos, 2 PDF manuals and a wall chart) will be sent to you in advance. This pack contains the teaching progressions for the Golden 12 Contact Moves that will be learned over the days of the clinic.
- Initial on-court analysis and tailoring of the program to your specific needs (age, athleticism, skill level & experience).
- Comprehensive training in the 12 Fundamental Contact Moves that all tennis players need to know, plus Serves and Returns.
- For more advanced players – Approach Shots, Volleys and Net Play are also covered.
- Serve Sharpshooter and take-home score sheets for ongoing use.
- Assorted other training articles and materials to take home.
- Video assessment on the last day to take home for ongoing training.
