From the ready position I want to you to hold the racket at the side of your body and bring the other hand across your body to meet up with the racket. As you take the racket down, let the ball go with it, then let it divide with the ball hand going back up.

As you are just about to hit the ball bring the back foot up to the front foot and then let it carry on into the court.

We are very pleased to announce that we are now accepting video submissions for interactive coaching via our podcast.

Shifting your weight and bending your knees adds a rocking action and an upward surge to your service.

Learn to add waist action to your service using body rotation (aka body torque). This extra power will enable you to hit ace after ace.

Once the racket reaches the second leg the shoulder is turned outwards. This gives a smooth stroke when taking the racket out the back.

David talks about the phrase "appealing through the eye" and why he will probably never be able to forget its meaning.

Wrist action is a vital to a good service stroke. In this episode you can learn how to free up the wrist and allow a proper revolving action.

As a continuation from the previous podcast, this episode shows how to start making the transition from standing facing the net to standing at the side. Grips are also part of this topic because when standing at the side the correct grip directs and spins the ball into court.
