After nearly 25 years of research and development, Mr. Hooper has developed a tennis training system that combines the speed and power of the Martial Arts with the fundamentals of the game of tennis. As Mr. Hooper stated “Our goal here isn’t to completely redefine the sport, but to get the student to see and understand current movement philosophy and how it has evolved with the sport, and how it has limited the sport”
Rooted in the traditions of several Martial Arts, as well as Mr. Hooper’s experience as a top Pro and coach, “Black Belt Tennis” has combined the pioneering efforts and legacy of the famous Australian, American, Swedish, and Spanish players along with the speed, power, flexibility and coordination of the Martial Arts; vaulting tennis from a game of “strokes” to a game of “multi-dimensional striking”.
The international launch of his website www.theblackbelttennissystem.com will enable both novice and veteran players alike to see the truly versatile, professional and dynamic approach to the game of tennis that Mr. Hooper envisions.
