Teach your players how to use the wrist on their forehand

To enhance their performance, players should focus on maintaining a relaxed wrist, allowing it to lag slightly for increased acceleration.

This drill will help your players lengthen the contact point area.

The video illustrates a method for adjusting the position of a player's racket in tennis by tossing the ball from the rear.

Teach your players to hit topspin using the net

The coach instructs players on mastering the topspin technique by using a ball, which is tossed up near the net for them to hit.

Teaching topspin using the net as a teaching aid

Explaining a technique does not always require complex tools. Sometimes, a simple object like a tennis net can enhance comprehension. By placing the ball at the top of the racket's edge against the net...

Improving Top Spin Technique: Swing up and rotate

In order to make topspin clear to the player, it is important to visualise that topspin is not only produced by a movement from the bottom to the top, but at the same time with a forward rotation of the...

Get into the catching position

Players often have difficulty coordinating their footwork for the overhead and getting sideways under the ball. An effective way to improve this is to move them sideways across the court in the trophy...

Correcting an open racket face on a forehand backswing

It is important that the racket head does not open in the FH backswing. In order to show the players what it feels like to have the racquet head closed on the backswing, have them start with a ball on...

When the foot is too lateral

Here we discuss on court a position of the foot that we often observe and that bothers us not only from a technical point of view, but also from a functional point of view. Our Re-Function Specialist Silvester...

Keep the racket pointing up

The video demonstrates a common error in tennis overhead shots - waiting for the ball with the racket positioned downward, causing a loss of momentum.

Improving the fluidity of the swing

The coach adeptly tosses the ball during the player's movement, promoting a seamless swing. This not only enhances the timing of the Serve but also develops a better feel for the stroke.

Different approaches for generating tension at the serve

To help players feel how to generate tension in the body for the Serve, we give them several unusual tasks:

Differentiate the stroke movement at the Serve

In order to feel which movements have an influence on the stroke movement during the serve and to find out one's own ideal movement, we start the serve movement differently:

We compare differential learning with life kinetics

Here we explain the quite exciting use of differential learning in the tennis school and compare it with the concept of Life Kinetics.

Differential learning for forearm and wrist work at impact

Variations in the way you hold the racket can be used to guide players toward proper wrist and forearm work on serve without verbal information about the movement.

Different approaches to tossing the ball

Different approaches for ball tossing at the Serve

We try different approaches to throwing and hold the ball in unusual ways.

Different approaches to the movement of the legs at the serve

To make players more aware of weight transfer and leg movements on serve, we try different approaches.

Expand the learning spectrum in all target groups

Players who have repeated or rehearsed their strokes a zillion times no longer feel the right movement. The subjective feeling deviates from the objective approach. This is exactly where you can achieve...
