Modern Tennis Footwork

The following is a 30 minute program about "Footwork" used by professional players today.  The video is from the website "FuzzyYellowBalls" located in our directory on the right hand side of this page.

Basically it talks about a more fluid and continuous movement when you hit the ball with the body weight moving toward the net in a walking or skipping step or cross step motion.  Old school footwork required a weight transfer from the back foot to the front foot in a balanced position with a slight pause after contact then after the shot was hit you would allow your weight to transfer backwards to your back foot and regain your ready position.

All-in-all a good 30 minute lesson it is just a little slow for the first 5-7 minutes.  All levels will benefit from this video but more so the intermediate to advanced.  Click on this link: Modern Day Footwork
