THE BAILEY METHOD

Globally, the Bailey Method is the most advanced and comprehensive tennis movement training program available today.

After thousands of hours of researching professional tennis players in action, Dave Bailey has developed a revolutionary coaching program that is unlike any other program in the world.

The Bailey Method is designed to develope in players an innate understanding of their strongest moves on the court, the ability to identify their opponent’s weakest moves, and then the capacity to formulate strategies, quickly and fluidly, to take control of each point.

Ultimately, players develop their own adaptable, personalised Playbooks for tournament competition.

    ENDORSED BY

    NICK BOLLETTIERRI

    LEGENDARY TENNIS COACH AND ONE OF THE MOST INFLUENTIAL PEOPLE IN THE WORLD OF TENNIS.

    “ I’ve had the pleasure of knowing David Bailey for several years and I can say without hesitation that he’s taught me a lot of things that is going to help me, and any time anybody helps me they gotta’ be damn good!

    No matter what coach teaches you, there is one part of the game you MUST have control of and that is - having a solid foundation and complete control of your body when you make contact with the ball, which means, you have to know how to: Move to the ball, make contact, then recover in order to repeat that process over and over

    I’m sure no matter what level of play you are on when you watch the DVD and use David Bailey’s Method, with or without your coach you will benefit from it”.    Nick Bollettierri


    • “After just four weeks of working with Dave and The Bailey Method I went on to win my first title. Not only did my ranking jump from about 300 to 98, I am now a Grand Slam Main Draw Competitor! I can hardly believe it myself! In just 9 months I played in my 1st Open Grand Slam and rose to a world ranking of 64 in the world.”

      Jarmila Wolfe (Gajdosova), Professional Player

    • “Dave is a pioneer in what he’s doing. He’s unique. He has developed a language & a method that is cutting edge. In the last 20 years, footwork has been very generalized and not tapped into in the way that Dave has done it. He’s taken it to a completely new level. My business is about helping players maximize their potential. Incorporating “The Bailey Method” into my coaching has had far reaching benefits for growing my business”.

      Simon Walsh, Professional WTA Coach

    • “It was very important for me to get here the week before the Australian Open to work with Dave and when he taught me how to move with the ball it made me feel more comfortable because he’s shown me how to move to the ball and now I know in which sequence to use the footwork. Footwork is very important because most of the top girls play a similar game but it’s the mentality and the footwork that makes a difference so I think footwork is a major key in your game.”

      Catalina Castano, Professional Player

    • “The Bailey Method is the most important breakthrough in the modern era since graphite rackets, this is the greatest breakthrough from a footwork standpoint that I've seen".

      Ean Meyer, Professional Coach

    • “In the past, coaches and trainers have never talked about footwork in this specific way. With Dave everything is structured. The idea is to get balanced for every shot. It gets you ready and set for the ball. You want as much power and strength so that you can be the aggressor. This is the way tennis is played now. The courts are faster, the balls are faster and tennis racquets are being developed to give more power. All of this makes for a much faster game. I love working with Dave and its fun!”

      Monique Adamczak, Professional Player

    • “What David has developed is nothing less than a complete conceptual framework for the baffling array of movement patterns in the pro game. David’s concept of the Contact Move encompasses all the elements of movement to the hit, during the hit, and after. Top coaches around the world, like Nick Bollettieri among others, have been inspired by David's work and are already using it on court on a daily basis.”  

      John Yandell, editor of tennisplayer.net

    • “My business has soared… parents seek me out and I now have a rapidly growing waiting list. The Bailey Method has added a new dimension to my coaching. I don’t have many beginners anymore because I’m now teaching kids at the National Standards and ITF Level. I offer the full service and my students don’t need to go anywhere else."

      James Golfin, Lead Coach

    • "Today the game is more athletic and aggressive, and you have to pay a lot of attention to your footwork to progress to a top player. You have to do something different. Working with Dave over the past three years has helped me to develop better and easier footwork for my type of game."

      Tatiana Perebiynis, Professional Player

    • "Thanks Dave, your passion for what you are doing is contagious! Words cannot really describe how much I appreciate all the help you have given me, and how much I enjoyed every minute of my experience. Your professionalism is exceptional.  It turned out to be such a wonderful 4 days, which I believe will totally change my game"

      Judy Liu, Masters Competitor, Canada

    • "My son had a great summer at both the Clay and Hard Court Tournaments. The coaches really liked his play and he received multiple college offers - including an offer from his 1st choice (which he has accepted!) - Many thanks to you, Dave, and your outstanding program !"
