Missing Tennis? Kids Bored?

Leave a reply

Tennis is still on hold…

However, I have been remotely coaching a few kids on their technique who already have an Eye Coach at home.  It it is pretty simple and cool.  Just get an Eye Coach and film your kids hitting forehands/backhands and send me the video.  I’ll then use an app that allows me to do slow-motion video, voice over and drawing to provide feedback and specific things to practice.  There is no charge for video coaching.  I am just happy to help make the world a little better place and give your kids something to do and a way to continue to improve.  The circumstances stink but provide a perfect opportunity to focus exclusively on technique.


I even called Peter Schmitt who runs the business operations for the Eye Coach and got it discounted down to $150 and FREE SHIPPING which is the lowest the Eye Coach has ever been sold for.  All you have to do is type in the coupon code “SlezakPro”and you’ll receive the special pricing.  If you purchase the Pro version without the bag it should net down to exactly $150.

Any questions please let me know.  Here are some examples of using video coaching just in the past few months…

You can still register for the Spring and Summer Camps but for right now the start date for Sundays in the Spring is to be determined.

Just so everyone knows ALL my tennis clinics and private lessons are temporarily on hold until Coronavirus settles down and schools open back up.

However, I am happy to do some remote technical coaching.  Just send me a video and buy an Eye Coach Pro using my promo code “SlezakPro” and we’ll keep on getting better through video technology.
