Always Wanted To Learn How To Play Tennis But Don't Know Where To Start?
Learning how to play tennis can be an enjoyable journey, especially when your game improves to the level at which you move effortlessly around the court hitting accurate and powerful strokes.
Here's A Secret That's Probably Going to Shock You.
They teach you the technique but not HOW TO PLAY. Moving your arms in a "correct" way has very little to do with being able to play tennis.
For example, they keep telling you how to follow-through, not seeing that your biggest problem is judging the ball flight and getting to the right place in the 1.5 seconds you have available.
Having many instructions in your mind makes your brain very busy, so that it cannot calculate the ball's flight and your timing correctly.
The result is that the more you think about correct technique, the worse your timing and ball tracking get.
Consequently, you'll probably miss the shot, and the coach will probably tell you what to think next so that this mistake won't happen again. Unfortunately, thinking more instructions about technique won't fix the problem of thinking too many instructions about technique.
It provides drills to improve your ball judgment skills. It shows you how to get rid of the tension that slows your improvement. And much more...
Since the best way to learn tennis technique is visually (Research shows that 75% of people are visual learners, especially of motor learning skills), this "How To Play Tennis" instruction for beginners is presented in video clips.

The Complete Guide to How to Play Tennis consists of 3 packages. Each covers one major playing situation in tennis.
How To Serve And Return
I won't make any hyped promises - the serve is a complex stroke, and it will take a while to learn. Because it is complex, you can learn it in many wrong ways - wrong ways that will haunt you and be incredibly difficult to correct later, when you have developed muscle memory making these wrong motions habitual.
How to Play Tennis At The Net
Another often missed skill in learning how to play tennis is playing at the net. All too often a beginner is taught only how to play a forehand, a backhand and a serve. After they become a little more advanced and comfortable with those strokes, they decide to learn a volley and an overhead.Since they have never played these strokes before, they are back at the beginner stage, and this can be very frustrating. They seem fine from the baseline, but when they have to play at the net, they look embarrassingly beginner-like.
How To Play Tennis From The Baseline
This is best suited for tennis beginners who play maybe only once a week and are interested in learning only how to play from the baseline.
How To Serve And Return
This is a good choice for beginners who are somewhat successful from the baseline but want to learn the serve and return in a way that allows them to continuously improve.
