The complete two-handed backhand
Most players have a pretty powerful forehand, but imagine how much more of an advantage you’ll have if you’re just as strong from your backhand side! In this episode, USPTA Professional Mark Bey explains the components of the two-handed backhand.

If you need help with your two-handed backhand, or just want to add this stroke to your arsenal, everything you need to know is right here.

The art of approaching 2
In this episode, USPTA Elite Professional Mark Bey continues his focus on the approach shot by offering more insights and drills covering the strategies for players looking to master the art of approaching the net. Serving and volleying, inside-in and inside-out shots, dropshots and more are covered to further develop the skills of approaching the net and finishing off the point and your opponent.
The art of approaching
In today’s tennis, most of the points are won from the baseline, often after long, energy-sapping rallies. This makes knowing how and when to approach the net to end points sooner all the more important during the course of a match. In this episode, USPTA Elite Professional Mark Bey focuses on approach patterns and the essential footwork technique critical for success. If coming to the net is an area where you lack confidence, or something you just want to add to your arsenal, this video is a must-have! In this video you will learn the skills and technique needed when approaching the net, including the “slice backhand approach,” “left foot or right foot,” and “ripping through the sidelines” drills.
Solutions For Your Game
All players will encounter problems during matches, but knowing how to diagnose and solve those problems quickly is crucial to achieving success. In this episode, USPTA Elite Professional Sophie Woorons-Johnston, Ph.D., offers six common problems a person might encounter and recommends creating a checklist in your mind to help you find the solution for each. Whether you are struggling to develop power, having difficulty controlling the depth of your shots, encountering issues with your serve, or are being inconsistent at the net, this episode will help you problem solve when you’re facing pressure from your opponent.
Serve and volley
Learn how to serve and volley with Grand Slam champion and USPTA Elite Professional Hank Pfister. See how to hit a proper serve and where to hit it to set up your shot for a volley, discover where the split step should occur, and find out how to hit an effective volley and half-volley. You’ll see examples of the shots, get one-on-one tips from Hank and gain the insight you need to start implementing this strategy. By forcing your opponent to react to you instead of you reacting to him or her, you’ll shorten your matches, so get into the mind of a serve-and-volleyer in this fun episode! In this DVD, you will learn the technique required to be an effective serve-and-volleyer. You’ll also gain an understanding of where to place your serve, when to split step and where to direct the volley you’re expecting on the return.
Secrets to better doubles

If you think you’re giving up too many free points in matches, you need this video!
