      Wow. Thank you. Honestly I wouldn’t be interested in coaching pros. I love coaching amateur players and seeing their “ah ha” moments. Your kind words mean the world to me. Have a great day!!!

      Very, very good information (all your videos), blends the art with the science of coaching excellently as well as anybody I have seen, if not the best I’ve seen. I suspect a Vic Braden influence somewhere along the journey? Thanks for sharing!

      Simple and logical. It is so easy to make tennis more complicated than it really has to be. You are making playing- and working on improving both massively more fun more EFFICIENTLY and EFFORTLESSLY in many ways.

    I have been watching serve vidoes in RUclips for years. while most of the good ones are covering the same concept like your video, this video by far is the best !!!.
    During my self teaching serve, I found the key steps are :
    Hitting the birthday hat at right time , relax arm such that my arm can supinate by istself ( not forcing it to supinate, not thinking about racket approching the ball on edge at all) ,and most importantly explosion toward the ball while staring at the ball.
    Many many thanks.

  • @jamesedwardsloan85
    @jamesedwardsloan85 2 года назад +3

    Great vid! One thing that has recently worked for me is to completely relax the hand that tosses the ball, almost making the hand feel weightless - which I guess means a much looser grip, and then less spinning as I throw it up.

  • @kentwood2914
    @kentwood2914 Год назад

    Good to make a video on this...such a difficult part of learning a good serve for so many people!
    You may have addressed the toss arm in other videos, but consider where the toss arm ends "overhead"...a right handed player wants to avoid the arm moving to the left of their centerline. Notice all good serves keep their toss arm on the side of their head that their racquet arm is located (right of head for right handers). This impacts how the scapula and and rest of shoulder biomechanics function during the serve.
    Also note that the toss arm stays to the racquet side of the body as it comes down and the racquet arm goes up. Both of these checkpoints keep the body from prematurely and over rotating right to left (counter-clockwise) for the right hander.

    Amazing, Ryan you became my favourite coach!
    I am clear on the J motion to toss into the court. However I would like more instructions on the trajectory of the toss in the vertical plane described by the baseline, ex where the ball should land for a first serve, for a kick/second serve, slice serve, etc. Maybe you’ve already posted such a video! Much appreciated, thank you!

    My left bicep disengaged and/or disconnected from my left shoulder because of not holding the ball like a glass of water. My toss was going over my head and behind my back. Three different coach's thru the years did not know how to correct my toss instead made me consistently made me strain. These were coach's in high profile clubs in California (Palos Verdes) and Chicago. Thanks for sharing your coaching with players who are dedicated to being good club players and having fun doing so.
