Simple Tennis Serve Technique Masterclass for Beginners

[@TopTennisTrainingOfficial]

Are you able to name all 5 mystery servers in this video? Spot them and tell us in the comments below!

[@hx3500]

Excellent, excellent service lesson!!! And it's free.... I saw 6 servers, not 5: Dimitrov, Federer, Zverev, Monfils, Djokovic and Nick Kyrgios.

[@owenmcculloch5336]

Dimitrov, Raonic, Goffin, Djokovic, Kyrgios?

[@karstenjakobsen4365]

Very good informativ video on the serve. Servers are Dimitrov, Alcaraz, Goffin, Federer and Kyrgios. We also saw Zverev

[@robhchin]

Player 1: Dimitrov Player 2: Munar Player 3: Goffin Player 4: Verdasco Player 5: Kyrgios

[@toprodtom1940]

After watching this and really absorbing it, went out on court and hit absolute bombs. You fixed my serve. I love you

[@TopTennisTrainingOfficial]

Glad to hear it!! 💪💪💪

[@Yotoblade]

Definitely one of the most concise yet informative serve videos ive seen on youtube. Too many internet 'coaches' that teach the techniques scratching the back or elbowing the enemy which makes the whole serve routine too complicated for a rec player. Less is more!!!

[@TopTennisTrainingOfficial]

Ah thank you I’m glad you enjoyed the concepts, I do agree the loop behind is an area not taught enough and is a vital thing to get right! Any way to make learning easier is our goal! 😁

[@dlooc]

finally you are doing something for beginners instead of some pro level stuff

[@normancook965]

The power loop has always been a mystery to me, and this video explains how to get it as simply and clearly as any I've seen. Thank you.

[@ksk7102]

It's the best serve instruction I've ever seen. I wish I had seen this when I started out playing tennis.

[@TopTennisTrainingOfficial]

Many thanks 🙏

[@123Rockchild]

OMGOSH….of all the different serving videos I have watched, yours is the first one that ALL parts of the serve were explained in an easily understood manner! I get it. Thank you so much! You just gained a new subscriber. 👍

[@TopTennisTrainingOfficial]

Glad it was helpful 🙏

[@anirvindhch1209]

My serve was the weakness of my tennis game. I watched many videos on how to do a serve but, none better than this. Before I watched this people took advantage of my serve and won their games. After I watched this video however most of my serves for aces. Keep on making these awesome videos! Love the videos! Thanks, Alex!

[@JrJVintage1956]

watch many many serve technique videos the last decade and THIS ONE finally unlocked the perfect set up and move to my pin point I had been searching for... tried it today and VOILA! easy and strong! THANK YOU!

[@TopTennisTrainingOfficial]

Glad to hear I could help! Good luck with your serve 💪

[@guynhills]

Really great and simply stated, step by step, serve video. May be one of the best I've seen on KZbin. Great job!

[@alexporter7003]

Agree with others this is the best serve video I've seen on you tube

[@TopTennisTrainingOfficial]

Ah you are too kind, thank you!! really appreciate your support!

[@kvbhat292]

For beginners this can be a progression lesson,for others- players or pros or to the coaches it is an excellent refresher course, well done Alex.

[@TopTennisTrainingOfficial]

Many thanks 🙏

[@centryisa7664]

The best explanation ever on how to get in easy understandable steps to serve right. The best video, thx! 🤗

[@TopTennisTrainingOfficial]

Many thanks 🙏

[@steadybreeze1443]

Great video working on my serve after 40 years of just volleying.. feels good to connect .. almost there ..

[@TopTennisTrainingOfficial]

Keep it up 💪

Best serve class with all the details!

[@TopTennisTrainingOfficial]

Glad to hear you say it, thanks for the support! Tried to put the main concepts that can make the biggest difference in shortest amount of time!

[@Sandro_Z68]

still (by far) the best video on "how to" serve - kudos, great job

[@LazyTram911]

Millions of the nuances, but you cover them all!!! Thank you so much, I need to run and train my serves :)

[@TopTennisTrainingOfficial]

Happy to help 🙏

[@dlee1038]

This is the first tennis video that helped me understand how to swing with a relaxed arm and generate racquet head speed through momentum.

[@TopTennisTrainingOfficial]

That’s great to hear 👍

[@sefermemisoglu3800]

I have builded and renovated my service quite a lot from your lessons. This one is nice polishing on it! thanks a lot for your clear, well-designed, well-executed content!!!

[@TopTennisTrainingOfficial]

Many thanks 🙏

[@patrickweston3293]

Lovely use of pro serves in slow motion to illustrate your points. Makes me realize how fundamentally similar they are compared to us mere mortals. I see some pretty weird motions out on the public courts! I also love the concept of aligning the tossing arm with the angle of the front foot during set-up. Should help me with hitting my spots. I like my serve, but I struggle to land it any place but the middle of the service box.

[@TopTennisTrainingOfficial]

Hi Patrick thanks for your message, and glad you enjoyed it! Yes every serve is slightly different, everyone has their “quirks” we just all try and get as many fundamentals right to make it go in 😁

[@VAMCVETS]

The abbreviated serve should help my daughter, who has progressed very well over the past 2 months. Very great class, the best I have ever seen, honesty. Keep up the great work 👍.

[@ThePurkkikeitto]

I've been playing tennis for 4 weeks and watched every possible guide on serves. I actually had a pretty good serve at somepoint (i've practiced serving almost exclusively, because i cant find a tennis partner), just lacking a bit on accuracy but then it started going downhill. I think this video pointed out all of the problems i currently have with my serve. Gonna test these tips out ASAP but thank you in advance. This was very indepth guide and im looking forward to improving my serve with your guidance!

[@TopTennisTrainingOfficial]

Good luck with the improvements 👍

[@Hashslingingslasher-]

Good luck finding someone to practice with. A lot of people have usually played tennis in the past, just ask everyone for a game and you will find someone

[@ThePurkkikeitto]

@@Hashslingingslasher- Thanks! I live in a really really small town so i doubt i find anyone.

[@SuhaniG-tg9sf]

I was struggling with getting my service in the right direction and inside the court. This helped a lot. Literally watched this video yesterday and immediately implemented these techniques during practice, I was able to identify the issues with my technique and hand and body movement. Even my coach was surprised to see sudden improvement in my service 😂😂

[@jasona.anderson1477]

Awesome lesson, Alex! Great teachers take things that are complex (e.g., the serve!) And make it simple for understand, practice, and implement. You (and Simon) are very good at that!

[@TopTennisTrainingOfficial]

Thank you for the support 🙏

[@AshinFlendel]

Applied this today at a spin league game, absolutely fantastic queues. Thanks

[@TopTennisTrainingOfficial]

Great to hear 🙏

[@hasnx]

Just watched it today and I played 30mins after . Honestly it worked so well. My serve was not bad before but now it has this spin and power unlike before, thanks mate!

[@roygovender2452]

Absolutely great, the clearest and best explanation of the serve 💯👌

[@TopTennisTrainingOfficial]

Thank you for your kind words Roy, glad you liked it!

[@rodriguezahr]

Tennis serve complexity is probably the one and only reason Padel has become so trendy nowadays.

[@sunsioux444]

so many tennis serve instruction videos ask that beginners execute complex moves such as pronation. The tossing arm has to stay straight and high, while the serving arm has to move and whip and pronate. It is very complicated and it is very challenging for a beginner.

[@keyzer380]

​@@sunsioux444 how do you want to learn ? Lol The movement is what it is so you need to do it again and again with feedbacks. There is no shirtcut

[@sunsioux444]

@@keyzer380 no one asked for a shortcut…. I am working hard all the time

[@cilami]

and pickelball...

[@sunsioux444]

@@keyzer380 I am trying - it does take time. I know it is not easy and it does take dedication. The tennis serve is one of the most complex moves and all of sports I hear. So as a beginner myself, I am acknowledging how challenging it can be, but I know we have to put into the work.

[@michaelhoare5291]

As has been said several times, easily the best serve vid on YT. Too many YT tennis coaches over complicate the process by trying to reivent it. One I've seen breaks it down into 7 stages. My problem has been trying to transition from the way I serve, which although effective, restricts the power I can generate, to dropping the rocket behind my head. I do it brilliantly without the ball but haven't yet been able to do it with the ball 😂. The abbreviated serve is the answer for me, which I've not come across in all the vids I've seen until now. Thank you.

[@jorgeatacav835]

A very very very concise and complete explanation! Thank you coach

[@TopTennisTrainingOfficial]

Glad it was helpful!

[@m4rk276]

One of the best videos! Hopefully you will release a video about slice and kick serves

[@hynguyen8674]

great video, thank you very much. I have shoulder pain from tennis serve. From your videos and others, I noticed that my racket placement at the contact is at 12 o clock rather than 1 or 2. Thats where my shoulder joint and muscle is very tight. I probably need to pay attention more and keep it at 1 or 2. Or in some video they said to keep your ears away from the shoulder. Thanks Alex

[@TopTennisTrainingOfficial]

Thanks for the support! Yes the continental grip will take some getting used to but give you much more power and spin potential. To land on the correct foot on your serve work on using the back leg more to push off and then kick back 👍

Thanks a lot for the video! There's something I don't quite understand about weight balance, as you said 1. When we start the toss our weight is on the back foot 2. When we finish the toss (ball released) we go down and our weight is on the front foot However what happens with our weight during the rest of the movement ? Our weight isn't supposed to go back to our back foot before hitting ?
