The news that Ingrid Del Ferro, director of the Del Ferro Institute, will once again work together with the KNLTB is , in my opinion a good message for the top youth in the Netherlands and their coaches. Functional breathing while playing tennis is not easy and is often underestimated.

This is because proper breathing technique prevents premature fatigue and it promotes relaxation while hitting the ball. In the first period that Ingrid introduced youth tennis players and coaches to functional breathing, the results were extremely positive. Players such as Robin Haase and Igor Sijsling were able to benefit from it at the time.

I therefore highly recommend the training sessions of Ingrid Del Ferro to anyone who wants to know more about proper breathing technique while playing tennis.
