i like how you start the FH, BH from the contact point - without worrying much about ready position, swing path. quick natural way to start a fundamental swing. would wall hitting be a good way to start a beginner, since they can many hits per minute in?
I did this today and I played a game that I actually played well in. I'm still making some mistakes, I'm inconsistent with hitting it straight ahead. I hit it but it does go in an angle to the corners on the court where it's close to being out. Are there drills I can do to hit the ball perfectly straight?

Im not sure if i am a beginner cause ive been playin for 9 months now
I need this
THIS is a coach. Explaining the technic first, being patient and correcting your mistakes, not getting angry cause you don't already know how to swing or hold the racket and telling you that you shouldn't play tennis at all. I felt so bad after those words, but this guy right here is inspiring
yeah the coach is very experienced so he knows what players at any level struggle with
Yes I like this coach.
That's is not a coach, that is just a person who knows tennis but doesn't know how to teach... don't bother with that. Find a new one and continue to practice. The problem is not you
TENNIS PTSD?
What's up bro I've done something EXACTLY like this on my channel and have also had AMAZING results, even better, especially with the backhand - if you go check it out, you're mind is actually going to be blown! I'd really appreciate it - near perfect form in just one lesson!
I’m a coach too and this is the best beginner lesson I’ve ever seen.
Exactly and I feel the same.
Humble thing to say
We have to be so grateful of you saying that about other person, coz youtube is so full of stupid ppl criticizing everything and everybody making videos. Even when they don't know anything about what they're criticizing.

I have played tennis for 40+ years. This is a spectacular instructional video. Even the little things like picking up a racquet off the ground is the proper forehand grip. Something I forgot until I saw this video (even though I still have a proper grip but I forgot about this simple lesson). That is exactly what my coach taught me decades ago. This guy is amazing and I am thankful for this video since I am now teaching my daughter how to play. It's the simple teaching techniques that make all the difference. Thanks to a million to "Intuitive Tennis"!!!
🙏
The fact that this video is free is nuts
i luv nuts
i’ve been wanting to take tennis lessons but been too nervous, this video was so motivating! you explained things so clearly. thank you!
It’s super fun. My arm strength has improved a lot and my posture. I’ve also become more toned and coordinated
It's super worth it. Remember everyone is a beginner at some stage, so many different types of people get lessons!
I started to take the course because there were nice girls attending, then I enjoy the game and forgot about girls :))
Same!!!!!!!! Also my cousin has movevated me more I’m sooooooo existed I got my tennis racket 2day
Dude just buy a racquet and find a buddy to go learn. If you're having fun you will learn.
I just started learning Tennis.. 2 weeks in. This is one of the best coaching lessons I have seen. Kudos to the instructor. And the way the video has been made - starting from nothing and then picking up the basics.. well done.

I can’t figure out why this video makes me want to be a tennis instructor?!
I can't figure out either
The sun?
I don't know much about golf but if she's looking for an instructor..... I think I can help her form
U know exactly why LOL
indeed
This beginner lesson made me a pro
Really? 😂
@Billie Eilish Edits yes
@Billie Eilish Edits yes it does! You'd be surprised if how well it helped me. I'm more comprehensive and understanding of the game now. I also have ALOT less questions after watching this video. 😁😅
This is so strange I think it’s a sign I never found any sport interesting But Tennis looks fun
What exactly do you find interesting about tennis?

@Alien_ee I’m just going to my park and having a friend drop the ball for me and take the videos as support 😅, trust me idk but I’ll work it out and just buy a cheap one to start, starting training when the snow melts 🙃
Only sport I can watch and keep track of tourneys! Tennis is my favorite sport. Started watching it with a friend who taught me how to score. Ngl, watched for the eye candy, stayed for the sport all these years in the end.
People don't realize how difficult it is to teach beginners especially when they make slow progress. Hard job. I had that pleasure to teach my son from age 7 -10 . A lot of respect coach 😁
Especially if they are bad as this girl

Me looking up how to play tennis last minute cuz I agree to a tennis date with a cute guy I met at the polo game😭😭😭😭😭
Omg kinda same
Hahaha OMG this is me right now!!!!!!!!!!!!
Why are we all in the same situation?? 😭😭
She’s going to be 4.5 in no time with this coach’s awsome teachings. Foundation is so important. I’ve had a bad technique for years and it has been very hard to fix my forehand but now I’m getting there.
4.5? She's already a 10.0!

I have always believed that the coach and beginner need to be side by side on same side of net . So many coaches and there are so many really bad ones don't get it that the beginner pupil struggles with reversing the instruction and implementing it simultaneously from the far opposite side . this is a brilliant coaching session
Starting tennis from zero, is very difficult. I think this is one of the biggest barrier to bring more people into enjoying tennis and making it their hobby. This video is really good, because by watching it I begin to believe that there is a 'fast' way of making beginner know how to play. Well not in the full scale of tennis match obviously, but at least to start hitting balls continuously. And hopefully tennis will be even a bigger sport in the future. Especially, where I live I am looking forward to see more people play tennis.
She's funny. She hears the sound hitting her back. haha She picked it up quickly! Great teaching!
I hardly post comments on KZhead. I am in my mid 30s and never played tennis before. I find your teaching/ Coaching methods so simple that I feel more comfortable and confident that I can learn it faster as I have started playing since last 2 months and without a coach. Keep up the good work Coach.
'I am in my mid 30s and never played tennis before' - i believe the power of the thumbnail brought you here
Took tennis in college and 20 years later, taking it up again. Loving these videos. Taking the rust off and fixing bad habits i had. Also teaching gf. Thank you sir. And this student is very quick learner and beautiful.
Don't let ya girl read dis comment 😉
Hehehe - you had to slide that last part in, didn't you 😅
I actually had my very first tennis lesson last night, and this video was SUPER helpful. Thank you so much for creating free quality content! (And it was comforting to see the stuff I struggle with isn't just stuff I struggle with)!
Ms machine, whatever you do, don't quit playing tennis! It is one of the greatest, most personally satisfying as well as psychologically satisfying pastimes, hobbies, sports in which a human being can participate. You'll develop friendships and regular outings in the morning or evening. And you can play the sport for life.
This was so very help. You're an excellent teacher! I love how descriptive you are in all of your intents. Thanks for uploading :-)
I am 36 and my best friend is an older guy who plays tennis fairly well. He says he will not play me because I am no good but we do not know how good I am since I do not play much. I am a very good ping pong player and I beat him at that fairly easily after not playing for years. This video is giving my the tools I need. I will use this information to wreck Justin. Thank you.
Love your passion bro....let the wrecking ball swing :-)
Lmao reading this as someone named Justin I was surprised when I read the end of the comment 🤣 3 years late hope you whooped his butt!
The coach is very good at explaining. Good job, coach!
This is the best tennis instruction for beginners on KZhead. Clear, direct, easy to understand, and super helpful.
I love the coach so kind, clear and specific in his technique advice. Positive encouragement too.
It's been hard to find this low level stuff on KZhead. Greatly appreciated!!! I just picked up a racket and started playing with no lessons. This is great!
Because she adjusted right away to what he was saying and you see an improvement it's actually really helpful. No footwork yet, just contact points and follow thru. Great video dude!
this is the greatest tennis lesson I have never taken in my life. I am not afraid to try it now thank you! Excellent coach!
thank you! very useful and easy to understand instruction. i've taken lessons in the past but never had anything explained so clearly or as structured as this
Sharing yr knowledge at free of cost, what a great coach u R, may you live long
iam 72 years old and been playing tennis on and off since 16 years old.i regret that I have never had any coaching lessons. I can play, but play wrongfully. nick,you are a wonderful coach. I wish you were my coach then. congratulations, keep up the good work. I have watc
I have watched most of your videos !
Thank you so much for this video!!! I have been all over the place when I go practice - but I am excited now to practice the correct way. Very informative helpful video !
Really nice lesson and coach's flow. Not less, not too much! Proper basics guide! Even feels like I can do this myself with wall. Thank you!
Fair play to you for showing how to build a player like this. I haven't seen anything like this before on KZhead.
This video is fantastic thank you so much, I have played since I was 9 and I am 20 now. I am very in tune with body mechanics and what makes something efficient and also ergonomic. I have no problem giving my fellow players technique tips, but I had no idea how to start teaching my mom. Thank you so much! Hope I can repay her for all the practices she took me to haha
Great Videos! For those of us who don't go for classes this great. Wih the in depth information and also pointing out the mistakes and telling even the small details and doubts. I've seen people who can't finish their swing, who use their wrist instead of their shoulder. This video can help them.
I am beginning my tennis lessons tomorrow, and this video has helped me feel less nervous about it. This coach does such a nice job of explaining things and modeling what he is saying.
This is awesome! I played in highschool and playing is a lot different than teaching. I've been so flustered when teaching my wife because I have no words, to me it was kind of like, "do this and that." But this. This is SO clear. Put words to what i wanted to say, THANK YOU!
This video helped me know everything about tennis. I've never played in a tennis game before and my first game starts in a few weeks. Thank you for posting the lesson!
I originally play badminton for 15 years and today I got invited to a tennis training for beginners and I'm really loving the sport. Clearly there are some badminton techniques that I need to shut off while playing this sport but there are also some badminton techniques that somehow gave me a jumpstart. I'm looking forward to learning more and this video is very clear, now I'm excited to try again 😊
Bro I also played badminton for 14 years and the same thing is happening to me also 😢😅
I just started training tennis just last week but after training with my coach I come back on KZhead and follow ur instructions it helps me a lot and am picking it faster when get back to the court to train 😊🙏shalom
This guy is exactly like my taekwondo instructor, he’s smart, and gets straight to the point while making sure you understand everything.
Such an amazing coach!! Even by just watching this video I felt I learned a lot, just like attending his lessons.
I was always a beginner, but just picked up a racket and played today again for the first time in ~20 years. Great beginner video, thanks!
Thank you for this Coach. You are patient, that’s an excellent characteristic of a coach. Great teaching.
Amazing! That's how simple but perfect instructions can make a noobi start efficiently hitting the ball just in 10 min! I am really impressed! Well done!
This is a very good coach combined with a very good student, excellent development, the strokes are looking natural already, not weird at all which is something rare to see on a begginer player.
Inspirational video for someone like myself who's returning to tennis in my retirement. I've taught people to fly and Nikola employs the same building block instructional methodologies. That in combination with Anna's natural athletic abilities makes these lessons so entertaining and motivational!
Excellent "The most important thing is Control..... Power we gonna go later" - The prime keys to most all sports - put Power on the bench till control is there - then bring power in - so so much Tennis with people around me fails cause they over power each other and burn out and have zero fun - sometimes I can teach them - other times best to stay out of it
Thank you for this tutorial! I went out to play tennis for the first time today and your lesson was very helpful.
Thank You IT🙌🙌 Ssso informative & on-point for beginners like myself-luv how you taught the basics in simple ways! Awesome🎉✨👍
I love this guy and how he explain everything in the correct way for someone who didn't play could understand. Great job!
I looked up tennis for beginners and found you because my daughter will be doing tennis this next semester in school for the first time. I know i will want to practice with her and I wanted to know a bit about tennis. I loved how you explained everything and how you did move the camera so we could understand how the elbow is supposed to look like. Even though she could have easily hit the camera. Thank you for making this for beginners tennis players and coaches.
Shes got a very very nice personality
haha, amazing conclusion lol
U dont know until you marry her
Seriously the world is fucked
@L C i think he was being sarcastic
Nah. But I like the body
This is amazing. I learned tennis as a kid in the early 90s. My awesome coach also coached Wally Masur when he was a kid. Now my wife wants me to teach her tennis but I have no clue how my coach stepped me through the basics and she refuses to "embarrass" herself with an actual coach. So I came to KZhead hoping for some help with my first ever "coaching" gig. This is absolutely perfect. An amazing gift. Thank you.
Really detailed and to the point elaboration of tennis's rules. Every sport has some technicalities and intricacies which can only be grasped through practice and practice. Great.
If only all my students picked it up this quick. Great teaching!
Great lesson; not every pro tennis player makes a good instructor. Hope to see more videos like this.
I've been trying to start teaching my gf tennis and this video helps me explain things much better to her as far as technique since many of my moves are just automatic now its hard for me to explain it. I'm so excited for our next lesson!!!
This gave me a lot of information in a short amount of time and now I feel reassured before going into my first tennis practice 👍
Great video. Started playing tennis over the weekend. Thanks to this video for making it intuitive
You are a excelent coach..very calm and explains things efficiently!! But wow....I am really impressed on how fast this girl can learn and adapt...I mean, she´s a natural!!
The ability to relate and communicate well with others is a sign of compassion and likely wisdom.
This is truly unbelievably good. Wow, Anna has incredible natural athleticism, hand-eye coordination and body control. Most beginners I see spazz out when a live ball comes to them from across the net, but she handled the pace with such calm and control. Amazing! Well done, Anna!
What's up bro I've done something EXACTLY like this on my channel and have also had AMAZING results, even better, especially with the backhand - if you go check it out, you're mind is actually going to be blown - and both of these guys have no natural talent, athleticism, or coordination WHATSOEVER!
She's definitely some kind of athlete or spends a lot of time in the gym.
@@mestune5043yup, the abs!
Fantastic video, thank you, I will be using this approach with my children
This video answered so many questions for me. Thank you for the detailed explanations!
You're a really good instructor and Anna was very good at making the adjustments that you pointed out to her for proper body positioning for ground strokes and serve - bravo!
Thx for this! I am good at tennis but teaching is really different. I now have some good tips for my little ones.
I've started playing tennis half a year ago and it took me a few months to reach Anna's skill level after her first lesson. I loved the way you explained things. Great video! Subscribing

love this lesson. Its look like a simple and nice to try. especially I have never played before. I must try to start.
You're a great instructor! super easy to follow. Thanks for the video!
The improvement she made in this lesson is superb. Great coach.
I wish I had started this way: by focusing on contact instead of mimicking the exaggerated-topspin swings of the day! If I could go back in time, I would give myself the following... *First Lesson to my Former Self: "Contact is Everything"* 1. Start your swing AT the contact point - mentally anyway, you will subconsciously add the backswing 2. Finish your follow-through COMPLETELY. There's a reason the pros do this (in warmup anyway). By _consciously_ focusing on the FT, it dictates everything that _unconsciously_ precedes it. 3. Do Not Worry About Topspin! Clean contact trumps topspin at this level of the game. Learn topspin only once you generate enough power that you cannot otherwise keep the ball from going long. I was the exact opposite, i.e. I paid HUGE attention to the looping, topspin backswing of the day (Borg, Vilas, etc.) and ZERO attention to the follow-through. Wrong! Other way around.
GREAT analysis! And not hw u start but FINISH!
#3 dead on. Wish pros would stop talking topspin to beginners. It's ridiculous. Over the net deep inside the opposite court. On repeat. Well said.
She makes great contact and finishes even better....
This is very easy to understand and practical. Thank you Coach!
I am going to have my first official tennis lesson today and I watched this video beforehand. I am very excited :) Many thanks for sharing a few great points :)

Very good coach with a fast learner student. Good Job Stay safe!
I'm liking this. His teachings are awesome. He's patient with her and I like that.
I wish I had a coach like him too. He is so supportive and patient. I feel like I learnt a lot about the grip concept and posture. Can't wait to get to the court to check how much I learnt 😬✨
Learnt. 😂 Is it an official word now? Idk 🤷. I’m a true redneck myself so it don’t matters anyhow. 😜
You are gold Sir🙏🏿being playing for 2 weeks, today is the first that I got clear on the basics🎾👏🏽

@@IntuitiveTennis thank you for posting. I'm a beginner so and I dont have a coach so I'm learning by watching drills like this. Does your elbow hurt when you play by any chance?

Clicked because of the girl, but the teaching sequence was more interesting and informative. It’s one of better coaching I have ever seen for beginners.
Perfect explanation and really patient with her.
im gonna teach my GF playing tennis, & this video gives me the perfect points to learn/watch/correct/adapt so she can have a good first experience ! THANKS ALOT
Amazing video, I'm gonna play with friends who are already good while I never ever played tennis and didn't want to waste everyone's time, at least I know the basics thanks to this video, thanks a lot for this ! EDIT : The serve looks SO HARD, but it makes so much sense to start the stroke at the highest position to make the smallest movement possible, and have as much control as possible !
He is great coaching, inspire me a lot, thanks!
Great video I've never played tennis but my niece just recently started so I've been trying to learn and this video really helps me to help her.
I learned so much in under 20mins video more than my 2 hours session with coach wth. Thank you so much!
I’ve never played before but it looks so fun. Gonna get a racquet for my son and I so we can play. I’m 41 but it’s never to late to learn! I’m addicted to watching all the matches in the tennis channel!! Thank you for this video. I’m definitely subscribing!! 🎾
