The program brought 9 of it&#8217;s players, 3 of it&#8217;s couches and an entourage of media to Eugene Oregon for some intensive coaching by the likes of Jeff <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">Bearup</span> (the director of the New England Academy of Tennis), Dennis <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">Ralston</span> (a famous former pro!) and myself. They coaches provided the tennis coaching and I provided individualized Kinetic Chain Assessments and an introduction to Corrective Exercise and athletic preparation and recovery.</p>
<p>The kids were appreciative and hard working. It was one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. I look forward to sharing more about this experience with you over the next few days! I have to get some sleep b/c I am teaching a Corrective Exercise Specialist workshop in Washington, DC over the next 2 days.</p>
<p>Above is a picture of the kids and the foam rollers we gave the for <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">myofascial</span> release!</p>
<p>Thanks for reading!</p>
