    Description
    This course is a continuing introduction to the discipline of Kinesiology through the rules, equipment, facilities, etiquette, and basic strokes - volley, lob, and overhead and with further development of the forehand, backhand, and serve. Instructors will emphasize conventional skill development and encourage adaptations based on physical ability, age, strength, gender, of various countries and/or genetics. A brief historical examination of how the game of tennis has changed due to the influence of individual men, women, and children of various countries and their styles of play or strategies will be covered. Students will review and apply basic exercise physiology, nutrition, flexibility, and strength concepts to improve their physical condition and play tennis at a more advanced level.
