Design B: How to Play Tennis in the Zone

The "Zone" is considered by players and coaches alike to be the Holy Grail of tennis performance, but it is also the game's most mysterious and elusive experience, thought to occur only by chance and never by choice. Until now, Scott Ford's Welcome to the Zone is a step-by-step process that shows you exactly how to play tennis in the zone, by choice, not chance. Welcome to the Zone redefines the ultimate tennis experience in a way that both beginners and professionals can understand. It not only explores the subject of the zone, it also gives you an elegantly simple process for shifting out of your normal performance state and into your peak performance state. It's called the Parallel Mode Process. After a brief introduction, Welcome to the Zone is divided into three sections: Phase I: Getting In the Zone. Phase II: Maintaining the Zone. Phase III: Competing in the Zone. Each chapter introduces you to a new "Step" in the Parallel Mode Process, and each of these Steps takes you deeper into the experience of the zone. At the end of each chapter specific on-court drills are outlined with easy-to-understand instructions and feedback pages designed to measure your progress. The Steps in Phase I show you how to enter the zone using a simple concentrative task that shifts you out of a Serial Mode of operation and into a Parallel Mode of operation, and when you shift into this highly efficient mode of parallel operation, you simultaneously shift into your peak performance state. It happens immediately, and you don't have to be a skilled tennis player to make the shift into a Parallel Mode. You just have to be willing to try something radically different. Remember, this is not a book about playing tennis "in the norm." Rather, it's a book about playing tennis "in the zone," and to get into the zone, you have to do something very different from the norm. You have to change the way you focus your eyes on the court. Briefly, you have to stop focusing on the ball and start focusing on your contact zone.

Scott Ford is a Master of unity with the flowing now...Ken Wilber. Every so often, a rather remarkable disclosure reveals itself that can change our worldview. It can occur through contemplation, reverie, insight, revelation, reading, writing, or for many, actual physical practice. Scott Ford has had such a moment of practice, and his world has never been the same. After reading Scott's book, perhaps our world will be permanently altered as well. In using his Parallel Mode Process, we are taken into one of the most revered and hallowed places in sports. Ford's work allows us to abide in the living, breathing essence of the zone, dance in the flow state, and train into it. The book is both a technical as well as intuitive discussion of a new way of contextualizing one's athletic experience, engaging both left and right brain consciousness, and resulting in nothing less than a satori experience. By engaging in the practice of living in ever-present moment-to-moment awareness, the author creates a non-local consciousness experience that is life-changing. Thus, through Scott's highly refined work, we enter into the Witness state, a revered state of consciousness that is both unitive and integrated. Sport is the great Western metaphor, a potent medium that teaches us how to realize our sometimes dormant capacities, and at the same time translate the learning into everyday situations. The lessons learned from this book apply directly to all walks of life. Hence, Scott's discoveries take us into the union of East and West, the spirit and the flesh, through tennis, sport and life. You may never look at a tennis ball in the same way.
