How-to Lesson Part 1 -The Stance

To generate effective tennis strokes, the body must be well balanced. To attain the proper balance, the player's feet must be a shoulder's width apart. In other words, each foot should be underneath each shoulder. The knees of the player must be slightly bent and depending on which stroke is being executed, one foot must be slightly in front of the other. Some advanced players keep the feet even with each other in an open stance, but beginners should have one foot slightly in front of the other in a closed stance
The Swing

The swing of the tennis racket involves rotation. For demonstration purposes, put your dominant hitting arm behind you in a backswing position. Let your arm swing forward using your shoulder as a pivot. This is arm swinging and it is exactly what we do not want to do. Instead, put your arm back in the back swing position and this time use your hips and your torso to swing your arm forward. Do it repeatedly rotating your hips faster and faster and therefore, moving your arm faster and faster? The body swing is more powerful and more consistent than an arm swing, because hip and leg muscles are bigger and more stable than smaller arm muscles. Stability leads to consistency
