Book Description
The essential book from online tennis coaching sensation Ian Westermann, founder of EssentialTennis.com What’s the number one thing stopping you from playing your best tennis? Ian Westermann, founder of the world’s #1 online tennis instruction portal, Essentialtennis.com, will confidently say it’s an obstacle you probably never thought of: The ball. You might think this sounds ridiculous. The whole point of tennis is to hit the ball over the net and in, so how can the ball be the thing that’s standing in the way? In fact, this is why the ball is such an impediment: your desire to hit a good shot, with the right mix of power and spin, to a specific spot on the court, prevents you from striking the ball the way you should. In Essential Tennis, readers – players and coaches, alike – will learn how improving at tennis actually happens and how to easily implement these lessons and integrate them into better play on the court. Players will hit stronger shots, make fewer errors, and beat players who are currently beating them. Coaches will look differently at what it means to provide a student with a holistic learning experience. Essential Tennis contains technique-based instruction for executing groundstrokes, volleys, and serves, as well as progressions, drills, and mindsets players should incorporate. Westermann illuminates strokes, movement, strategy, and mental toughness – all proven to be successful over 20 years with clients of all ages and skill levels.

The Juggling Mother
Author: Amanda D. Watson
Publisher: UBC Press
ISBN: 0774864648
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 185
Book Description
Who is the juggling mother, the woman who quietly flicks dried cereal off her blazer while running a corporate empire? The Juggling Mother explores this figure of contemporary mothering in media representations: a typically white, middle-class woman on the verge of coming undone because of her unwieldy slate of labours. Mothers who frantically juggle paid and unpaid work demands do not threaten the way labour is organized. In fact, as Amanda Watson demonstrates, they are model neoliberal workers who uphold white privilege – along with ableist notions of mastery, capacity, and productivity – because of a desire for political visibility and social inclusion. The Juggling Mother makes the controversial case that unfair labour distributions are publicly celebrated, intentionally performed, and intimately felt. Mothers with the most power are thus complicit in the exclusion of less privileged ones – and in their own undoing.

Book Description
When authors Steph Adams and Samantha Brett published their first book, The Game Changers, Samantha was dealing with life as a new mum while Steph was heavily pregnant with a three-year-old toddler at home. Eager to learn the secrets of how other mothers try to balance everything in their lives, they began canvassing women around Australia and the world. They quickly discovered that the modern expectation of mothers is demanding and unrelenting. Many are juggling children, partners, careers, families and their own businesses, all at the same time. Whether a woman is staying at home or working full time, raising one child or five, the juggle struggle is real. So many mums - no matter their age or background - are navigating the same dilemmas, posing the same question to themselves- 'Am I doing enough?' So just how can you do it all - and is that even possible? That's where The Juggle comes in! The Juggle features a fabulous range of powerhouse mums, sharing their intimate thoughts, struggles, elations, successes and challenges in these raw, candid and often very funny interviews and essays. With intimate stories of what goes on behind the scenes of their seemingly picture-perfect lives, they're here to let the mums of the world know they are not alone. And that, sometimes, something has to give.
