How To Play Relaxed And Accurate Tennis Groundstrokes

[@opuadaabusi7354]

I've never seen or heard a more articulate coach. Thanks Tomaz...

[@JamesDavisakaRemguy]

Skews me June-Year, butt that ain't how you rite *R-tickle-lit!* No fence, butt y'all ain't reel good at book lernin & whatnot. Ah heck thats all rite, not every won can go toowa *speshul skool* like me, I reck in. 🥴

I wish my coaches had explained this concept to me long ago, its so fundamental to having a healthy, consistent stroke. After a year and 3 months of playing and never having the ability to control the direction and depth of my shots, I went to a wall and practiced your linear exercise from your other video and the immediate lesson I had right after was completely different. Suddenly I can easily control the direction of my shots and achieve depth without effort. The problem was simply a stroke without enough of the linear component. Thank you!! You made me enjoy tennis a lot more!! Best tennis channel on youtube by a mile ❤

[@feeltennis]

Very much appreciated, thank you for taking the time to write the feedback!

[@dorisruiz4801]

I have been playing all my life, taking many classes, but your videos are the best. They should be a must for everyone. So clear and wise!! many thanks

[@nelloaniello4906]

Per me è la prima volta in assoluto sentire tanta competenza e particolari importantissimi a cui molti maestri dovrebbero attenersi. Ho avuto persone abbastanza competenti ma non mi hanno mai fatto capire granchè su come effettivamente funziona il diritto e il rovescio in questa maniera.Grazie

[@SloanZurnToto]

Thomas, great point about the relaxed backswing. I see so many recreational players trying to muscle the ball.

[@ClosetWorkshop]

Tomaz, you are soo good at picking topics that we don't even think about and explaining them so clearly that I am eager to go out and try this out NOW! Thank you!

[@dadmaxx8641]

I tried this yesterday. Wow, there is a big difference in consistency. Also, it's easier to get effortless power as you just rotate faster instead of trying to muscle the ball or swinging the arm faster. Thank you!

[@namdaechon]

Thank you very much. your teaching help my tennis developed. I am just a amateur for 20 years really like playing tennis. Nowadays I'm thinking you are best teacher for tennis in the world. I've learn many skills from many teachers through KZbin. But they'er not better than you. your teaching is always fundamental and scientific and easy, so it is giving new inspiration for tennis to me. Maybe many people is watching your KZbin is all same circumstance. Thank you, thank you very much, my teacher.

[@kingjulien2k]

Managed to apply this this year. Improvements: my precision increased, consisteny increased, time to decide the direction in reased. Thank’s Tomaž.

[@norbertr1713]

Just found your channel a few days ago and I'm impressed. you cover all the topics I feel are important, but hardly anyone talks about....such as in this particular clip. Thank you.

[@walterkasper467]

That was the best most knowledgeable explanation I have heard. Really helps alot Thanks Walt

[@der-zwischen-den-Zeilen-liest]

Tomaz you're the best...I learned so much from you till now...after your advice I play my best Tennis during a match and beat all run all others down. You made me mentally strong. Thank you so much for it. Your biggest fan from Germany.

[@AndrewKaplan203]

I have to copy Subbu's comment as I agree 100%. "Tomaz, you are soo good at picking topics that we don't even think about and explaining them so clearly that I am eager to go out and try this out NOW! Thank you!" His videos have really helped improve my game.

[@pupstart]

Rotation and then extension so well explained, have known what is correct to do but struggle defining it and then action it. This video simplifies it. Thank you n

[@namphan3331]

You are the best coach ever, Tomaz!

[@Mr.Puppet_23]

Best tennis lessons on youtube! Keep up the great work!

[@fabiogiovagnorio3654]

Thanx for your explanation you're a really good teacher and i like the scientific approach that gives a sense to what I'm supposed to do instead of simple repetition

[@kevinoshea2289]

Thanks so much, Tomaz. The relaxation, rotation and extension elements of the forehand always vex me. My club pro insists on a relaxed and extended swing. When I ask about rotation, as I have seen you preach the importance about rotation of shoulders and hips in your forehand videos, he claims that when I focus on rotation, I always rotate too early and over rotate . This video is brilliant and may help me to square once and for all the circular/rotational and extension elements of the forehand. Love your videos-they always answer my questions

[@feeltennis]

Thanks for the feedback, Kevin. Yes, if the player doesn't now have a clear picture in the mind how the rotation and linear extension work together, then they either over-rotate or don't rotate enough. I am just showing how I visualize the strokes.

[@chrisf247]

When you demonstrate this technique, I realize I've seen it in action, but didn't know what I was seeing. Great video!

[@BeatboxMissionar]

just another OMG Video, like the Universal Swing vid. very well explained, what so many teachers struggle to put in clear words. Tennis makes so much sense on your channel, thank you very much! Pls Keep it up :)

[@hermanodejesus7264]

You are the best teacher I've seen Tomaz.... congrats!!!

[@ldgnotebook]

I relearn from your lesson a lot of significant points. It is really practical. Sounds like a master technique to rebuild my strokes again. Thank you for sharing your deep knowledge.

[@vnminotaur]

This is the best tip ever. Just forget lag and snap things. I can hit the ball powerfully in terms of speed, spin and consistency only with this tip like the ball bounces once and hits the fence. Just want to add some. I feel if there is something wrong with a stroke, it is about the linear stage. After aiming carefully at the linear stage, I can rotate as fast as I can at the second circular stage. I am not the fan of tips like how to beat pushers. In my opinion, there is only one way to beat pushers: build forehand to put away loose or easy balls. That is it.

[@brianinthedesert6468]

Another excellent video, Tomaz. The flat sided "C" illustration via tennis balls is very helpful to show how the rotation/extension/follow through come together -- as opposed to overextending with a poor finish. Keep them coming!

[@feeltennis]

Thanks, Brian, appreciate your comment. Keep then coming! ;)

[@annecribben1102]

Thanks Tomaz...so clear & precise as always, Anne

[@feeltennis]

And thank you for the membership support, Anne!

[@alanknowles1154]

this concise simplification is what an overthinker like me needed.

[@davidescaleraponce3762]

Best couch by far. Thank you so much Tomaz, your explanations are the most understandable.

[@keithbell3123]

This is all about learning to do what's simple to simply become the best at doing what is simple. Thanks Tomaz!

[@benjaminmiranda4509]

Very good instruction, now I understand fully the mechanics.

[@Ambrosia-JB]

I love your exceptionally visual, conceptually simplified, method of teaching technique. Your videos are so intuitive, insightful, and helpful. Thank-you.

[@singaravel4514]

Very simple n logical explanation while executing forehand n backhand shots, always feels good the way you explain, sir

[@nicolaancona4434]

Great Tomaz. Your explanations are illuminating. It is a pleasure for me to learn the fundamentals of tennis strokes from your videos. Many thanks.

[@ostojicnikola81]

Once again a unique lesson concept! Also appreciate that you aren't putting out loads of videos with no actual substance like some of the other coaches do.

[@안드로메다-v3]

당신의 동영상은 테니스 원리를 설명하는 최고의 강의입니다.

[@Tennis_MenACE]

It is amazing how much power the body can generate alone when hitting the ball. Another great video.

[@willzsportscards]

Tomas, great explanation. Tennis is all about finding that zen balance.

[@jeffjafarian]

😊😊you make everything looks so easy ! Thank You Sir 😊😊

[@humbertomena65]

Thank you for your tips, it is helping a lot, as a biginner I need to learn the right way.

[@diario_e-bike]

Very technical!! Excellent!!!

[@junrylcambio908]

Very excellent, thank you for your teaching us, i have so much Learning from you sir, thank you again

[@mrjohnsonfong]

Excellent class! Thank u.

[@obaidfarghani9202]

Tomaz, thank you love the way you parse and explain in detail. many thanks

[@vnminotaur]

great video. One of best tennis teachers.

[@bobskyblue]

Thank you for the video Tomaz. Player must be versatile, going linear for direction this is one method which is helpful depending on the situation... but the other one pros are now extensively using is open stance and pull side...Path of the ball will come from the head of the racket angle and is not much from directing the arm linear for placement other then specific situations. Yes everything should be done from relaxation and keep coiling-uncoiling.

[@RahulSharma-to3ze]

😱I love this explanation

[@lilyflower9040]

Tomaz, thanks a lot! Awesome stuff! You are a great teacher!

[@reyara]

Thank you so much for yet another great lesson, Tomaz!

[@lethedan]

Great lesson again. But it would be perfect if another critical factor - LIFT - is mentioned along the 3 dimensional Circular -Linear - Circular Path

[@mdougf]

Another great video--thanks!

[@corlabz]

Luv this topic Tomaz...your courses at web are tailor made...specific and biomechanically engineered...🤙

[@amnguyen5283]

Thank you 😀😀

[@marianogarcia6827]

Hello Tomas! Do you have any videos made about what you mention about "advanced forearm acceleration?" I would like to understand the concept and what type of blows and tactical situations they are used for. thank you

[@dramaregoudapatil5805]

Another awesome video. 👌

[@clydenobbee6479]

As usual, a sound technical explanation that is simple to understand. However, would you suggest that the straight-line path of the stroke is a bit from the forward movement of the body stepping out? Thanks

[@BHBU11]

Great video, keep up the good work!

[@Doty6String]

another winning video....thanks brother

[@nathanmiller6051]

Thanks 🙏

[@rinz-n-repeat]

This guy is awesome

[@glademaster]

Should the serve motion be all relaxed and curved? Or also stiffer and straighter upon contact?

[@natarajasekhard2300]

Thank you Tomaz.

[@jhugoluz]

Congrats! 👏👏👏👏

[@richardharper5273]

Do you have a new single handed backhand, I like your original one but wonder if there’s more.?

[@akiga3258]

This guy invented Tennis.

[@roslee7]

Hi, for casual play with friends, what kind of balls shall i buy? can i buy the training ball? coz i think the competition balls is a bit fast .

[@weidongren3817]

very clear.

[@jameswhittaker9553]

I love tennis!

[@jcjessica]

Thank you for Sir Tomaz 's great advice

[@naviin09]

Tomas how can I send you the video of my son.? He is 13 yrs old

[@K4R3N]

Damn, this video was made for me!

[@oooodaxteroooo]

as my first coach used to say: you need to be in a state of relaxed tension. meaning, youre mind has to be aware, but your body relaxed. the second part is my insight ;) think of federer shaking his hair away or stroking it. thats when he tried to get back to calmness, because he notices hes tense. i think this is crucial to tennis AND of course to life. the people who are too tense either get injuries or fail to win consistently.

[@mario17-t34]

Tx, what this nice place ?

[@simonmartin8936]

Simplemente St Thomas!

[@babyfeeg]

Where is this?

[@ibrahim8230]

Thanks Tomaz, my biggest mistake that my ball just pass over the net with great power and control, I played squash game for more than 20 years, I tried to play with more room over the net but there were little success. How can I defeat this bad habit .

[@jer4797]

Thanks for teaching

[@felipesgonzalez]

what about the grip, is it lose befor the racket hits the ball? at least i do that while receiving the service

[@feeltennis]

Yes, the grip is looser but NEVER to the point of having space between your hand and the handle. I have been correcting that often with players who loosen up the grip so much that the handle becomes wobbly and "loose" in their hands. That must never happen.

[@felipesgonzalez]

+Feel Tennis Instruction thank you very much, I was doing exactly that

[@MERABATIR]

fine

[@Dan1elAndrade]

The eternal struggle.

[@kaf1145]

簡單來說，你是我們這羣網球羔羊的救世主。

[@pvsk10]

Why does this have to be so effing hard

[@albernal591]

LIKE GOOD EXPLANTION

[@Tomas-if9fw]

Dobro razlagaš...

[@LifeIsGoodThankYouGod]

firm to compress the ball and roll the ball.... hmm nice.

[@misschina1232]

how are u not a profrsional

[@patriciourdinez2468]

Don’t rotate away. I’ll write that down

[@neelpendyala5359]

Playing relaxed is for scrubs!!!! Have to be aggressive like a best...like Russell Westbrook.

[@Chris-jo3nb]

Thanks Tomaz!
