Dr. Mike Kernodle is Coach Chuck Kriese's guest on 'American Tennis' February 4, 2014. Dr. Kernodle is a widely recognized expert in many fields that include Kinesiology, Sports Psychology, Motor Learning and Motor Development. He is also a former Collegiate Coach of Championship teams and now serves on multiple professional boards that influence the child-athlete. Mike speaks out plainly and quite bluntly about the changes that are taking place in college, professional and in many teaching practices of our US system. He believes that we have left many of the basic principles that had been fundamental practices in prior years. The dumbing down of teaching and coaching in our culture have lead to many very poor results and a great void in our educational tennis culture that may not be easy to return to. A very entertaining interview from one of the country's most knowledgeable educators.
