Tennis Beyond Mechanics

Tennis Beyond Mechanics explores the five levels of mind states. At any given moment, a player's mind state is at a given level. The higher the level, the better they will perform. Most of us mentally operate at level 1 or 2 whether on the tennis court or in daily life. Few operate at level 3, and even fewer at level 4. We've all heard of players who have experienced "the zone," a state where one is playing flawlessly, almost effortlessly. It has been described by those who have experienced it as a meditative state of clarity. That is the level 5 state of mind, the highest level.

Tennis Beyond Mechanics is about understanding those mental levels. It is about being aware of the level we find ourselves in and learning to elevate to higher levels for better performance.

Thought provoking, captivating and inspiring, this book also follows the fascinating journey of a tennis prodigy who happens to be one of those rare individuals who intuitively functions at level 4.
