The "Petit Smash Kids Academy" was born out of a desire to teach tennis to youths with an adapted method, to favor success without competing with other students. The method used is "Evolutiv'Tennis", it was directly inspired by 25 years of teaching experience in lessons, clinic and coaching competitions. Through a variety of teaching material and gradual increase of difficulty in exercises, the aim is to develop a passion for tennis!

NEW JUNIOR PROGRAM "LE PETIT SMASH USA"
Our newest pro, Valerie Albaret, has been teaching tennis in Paris for 30
years. During the first 12 years, she was one of the head coaches of the
number one club in France. In 2003, Valerie founded her own tennis club
in Paris, Le Petit Smash, which is now one of the top ten clubs of the Paris
Tennis League, with 550 children enrolled in the programs. With a wealth of
experience with children ages 3 to 12 years old, and along with her knowledge
of the Bollettieri's method for champions, Valerie has successfully developed
her own teaching method - "Evolutiv'Tennis" which is fun and
especially adapted to the youngest. She has also coached good juniors.
In 2011, she assisted
and coached Victoria Duval from Bollettieri Academy when she was in Europe for
tournaments, as well as when she was at the TWA Las Cruces tournament in New
Mexico in June 2013. Victoria defeated Samantha Stosur in August 2013 at
the US Open. Valerie is very excited to introduce "le Petit Smash
USA" programs at the Tennis Club at Monarch Beach and hope that many
children will grow and love the game. She also offers private tennis lessons
or clinics to adults and children with passion and dedication, every weekday
from 10:30am to 4:30pm.
She can be reached at
(949) 200-2595 or contact@lepetitsmash.us. Visit www.lepetitsmash.us for more info!
SUPPORT THE "JAPAN AMERICA TENNIS OPEN"
The "Japan America Tennis Open" will
take place on Monday, September 23rd. The $100 per player fee (if registered
together with a doubles partner, $125 if registered individually) pays for a
tennis clinic with a USTA Master Professional (only 135 in the world), a
round robin tournament, reception and awards dinner, all at the SeaCliff
Country Club in Huntington Beach.
Winners get an award trophy to take home and
their name engraved in the perpetual Japan America trophy. All
participants get a bag full of goodies from Yonex. The tournament is a
fund raiser to benefit The Japan America Society of Southern California.
JASSC administers donations to the 2011 Japan
Relief Fund, to help in the rebuilding of the 2011 earthquake and tsunami, and
has contributed $750,000 to date. It is recently beginning to focus on
the needs of children, including the needs of children who have lost one or
both parents. Included in this is its commitment of $30,000 to support
Fukushima Aiikuen, an orphanage in the affected area.
NATIONAL CHARITY LEAGUE SHOE DRIVE
Angel Bins is a socially-responsible company that
started 10 years ago because they found that thrift stores were throwing away
the things that didn't sell. They started buying them up and recycling them or
finding homes for them all over the world. In the process, they started working
with schools and organizations to help them fundraise.
They collect any types of shoes. If they are designer,
they may sell them to websites. If they are out-of-style, they may give them to
a needy person in a third world country. Damaged goods get made into yarn,
which is then made into clothing or shoes. Nothing goes to waste.
Please put your shoes in the bin
located just inside the entrance of Laguna Niguel Racquet Club -
your generous contribution will help make a happier holiday for needy
kids in our neighborhood!

NEW Personal Trainer at LNRC
I am a personal trainer with a background in tennis and a
passion for fitness. It has been a dream of mine to combine my two passions in
one realm, and here I’ve landed in the best of both worlds.
I grew up playing competitive tennis on a local, national
and international level. After my junior
career I went on to compete for Division 1 Loyola Marymount University followed
by a brief try on the WTA tour before injuries ended my career. These injuries helped me to realize the
benefits of a proper blend of on and off the court strength and functional training. Although I couldn’t compete any longer, I
continued to work with athletes on improving their fitness levels to improve
their game. It was during this time that I realized my true passion for
fitness. For the past five years I have worked with clients of all fitness
levels, from the hardcore athlete, to individuals fighting physical ailments
and injuries.
When it comes to training; I am a goal-focused trainer with
a firm belief in keeping workouts interesting, fun, challenging and constantly
changing. During my training sessions I
like to incorporate different training styles and tools such as interval
training, plyometrics, kickboxing, yoga, forms of high intensity interval
training (such as tabata), free weights, kettle bells, stability balls, BOSU,
and TRX bands. Overall, I truly love
what I do and my main priority is to keep my clients healthy, happy and fit.
