What a great. Succinct and simple yet powerful video. First timer. Well done. Perhaps a clay court subtleties added would be helpful to my kid playing in the OB. Thanks. Coach Sam
This is becoming one and only YT channel I am following and watching, and as always I click on "I Like it". As you stated "your recovery leads to your split step . . . " Although you didn't cover in details - or if you wish it is not summarized what would be the optimal foot pattern for quick recovery (shuffle, crossover or running step) I understand this is the video on Footwork Framework as an idea how to practice footwork. Excellent
I intended to do a more in depth video on different parts of footwork. But since this was a 1 minute clinic, I wanted to do it as concise as possible and then I'll go into detail in another video.🤓
Wow exactly right on the shift of weight. I taught this to my son from 4 years on who signed a NLI to play d1 tennis. It is amazing how many “professional “ coaches do not teach this .
Hi Will!!! Greetings from Argentina. I find your videos very helpful, entertaining and precise. I would like to see a "one minute clinic“ on how to hit smashes the best way. Thank you very much.
thank you for the compliment on the teaching.i have been neglecting this aspect for a while, can u make a video (footwork for open stance backhand), great video indeed
Will, some of the best instruction online! Have you made a video dedicated to keeping your eye on the ball or however you may word it. Thanks keep it up.
Hi Coach Will, I greatly appreciate your content. Your explanations and demonstrations has been a valuable resource for improving my game. I hit double handed back hand, and balls above the waist and about shoulder height have always been a problem for me. I have little to no control and zero power when hitting those shots. Can you do a clinic that would help me correct this problem? Thank you.
Hey Will, thank you very much for your video and answer to my request, YOU ARE THE BEST 🙌. I watched your video carefully and even watched it in slow motion to fully appreciate all the movement and footwork. keep it up man 💪
This was great. I feel like I focused so much time on my upper body and never thought about my legs. I want to move better on the court and this will help. I think the trouble I have is applying what I learned. This requires some muscle memory too. What would you recommend as far as applying this to the court? How can I build that muscle memory?
Thank you for your knowledge sharing like ever. I have a question... Could you teach how can I (in double playing) read the opponent's racket and know where he/she will hit the ball to?
This is a great video. What would you reccomend when you play a grinder or a pusher and they’re ball is slow. I feel like I stop moving my feet and it’s like I take the steps and then I just kind of wait there is that bad?
I learned two things by watching it on the stationary bike: 1. Move away from the ball first for the balls that are hit at the body. 2. Different split steps. I might watch it again.
Hi Will, question here. I was just wondering how you would recommend structuring points on serve in a game, so how you would recommend structuring a 30-30 point or a 15-30 point and what the differences would be between a 40-15 point (other than you can be more relaxed).
Best footwork exercise. Thank a lot! keep it up a great work which is highly appreciated.

@@SamShrivastava-r2k I think I can create another 1 specifically for clay
I love it! Many people focus too much on forehand and backhand, they ignore the most important thing: footwork!
@@zhechen7691 can't hit the ball if you can't get there
That’s awesome. Simple and crystal clear instructions. Thanks!
You are welcome BTW I didn't forget your request 👍
The very best video i have watched on you tube about tennis. Great explanation, demonstration and layout.
Thank you for the compliment 🙏 I hope it was helpful
Best Footwork video that I have come across. This coach recognizes you don't have time for extensive setup while playing live points.
@hoover93 appreciate the compliment, happy to be able to help 😁
this is best footwork class on youtube
Appreciate it
I like this one a lot . Will modify it and do it with drops and tosses but really super!
Definitely let me know how practice goes 👍
This is so intelligent and helpful. Thank you!
You are welcome 😁 let me know how it works on court for you
Excellent instructions coach. Priceless❤
Glad you enjoyed 😁👍

You have by far the best content, having only 10ks of followers is surprising. Continue!!!
Thank you for the compliment 😁 I hope we can continue to grow
Trip….is a very good word to use on the way to the net….it used to be a split step and is self defeating in today’s very fast game.
@@Jestpaxt exactly the concept of splitting doesn't actually work in transition
Wooow thank 🙏 so much, I am struggling with footwork in the tennis 🎾 court
You are welcome 😁 let me know if it helps 👍
Excellent instructions!
Thank you 😁 hope it helps

You'd be surprised how often it's overlooked. Congrats on singing by the way 👏
Another great vidio :)
Thank you 😁
Great job. Thanks. Someone mentioned watching the videos in slow mo....how do you do that?
Very very helpful, I’ve never been taught proper movement! Great job Will!
Thank you 😁 hope it was helpful
08:47 Looked like a pro executing fluid footwork!
That's ma girl 😁 she works hard
This is exactly what I need. Thank you and hope to see more videos on footwork and anticipation! Thanks again with such great content 👍
Very welcome 😁 let me know if it helps

Have you made a video dedicated to keeping your eye on the ball or however you may word it. Thanks keep it up.
I will make it so 😁👍
Nice shirt! Go Tiger!
Appreciate it 😁
great video again! thank
Essential footwork frame work. The footwork depends on the distance. Just make sure you finish with open stance
@@gingerlu3062 yeup unless you are moving forward 🫡
Really great!
Top video as always Will 👌
Thank you 😁 happy to help
Great work as usual coach Will

@@ironwilltennis absolutely super helpful
GREAT EXPLANATION! THANK YOU MAN!
Pls make video on one handed back hand , with ful details like grip variations,flat and spin back hand
I can do that 😁👍
@@ironwilltennis thank u very much
Issue I am facing is lt of inconsistency in one handed back hand when opponent hit fast on by backhand
good stuff.thanks
Thank you for your help. I would like to learn 2 hands backhand hits once the ball is slightly higher :)
Switching from 1 to 2 hand or just 2 hands in general
@@ironwilltennis just 2 hand in general. My 2 hands with slightly higher balls are so weak, seems like no power
@@3eran7e13 understood 😁👍
@@ironwilltennis many thanks
better camera quality and this channel has potential, good content
Totally agree. The auto focus is the main detractor. I'm upgrading cameras this year

Great videos but the lens focus seeking is really distracting from the actual contents. Anyway thanks, will be following.
Upgrades coming soon 😁👍
Focus is fine for me. Great videos.
@alanbellamy5103 thank you 😁 hope it helps
This is exactly what coaches should focus on
It's why i'm here😁 to help draw attention to the right things
Pun intended? Sorry… had to
2:44 Jump here while practicing the footwork.
Great video!

@@ironwilltennis Sounds great, I will be looking out for it!
Nice
How to see the ball off the racquet..To better judge where the ball will land.
Thanks Will.
1) Please do a video on WHEN to use the more advance footwork techniques (fh step downs, fh moguls, etc)
Yessir 😁👍
Gracias 🇪🇸
Such good info Mr Will. Markiplier colab when?
Oooo interesting 🤔
Sir, how to use split steps in doubles.
Interesting question but I will make sure to cover it in a video 😁👍
Bit confused. Why no crossover steps or shuffles?
Those become more prevalent as your movement gets farther away. But a shuffle or crossover is still essentially 2 step just varying sizes
Where are you located?
In PA Just outside of Philly
🎾🥰👍🇷🇺💃🕺
Mr Will this time your camera lost focus a lot of time :(
Yes the 1 explanation it kept going in and out. I apologize 😔
@@ironwilltennis no worries mr will
Don’t think the varying focus of the camera affected the content or quality of the lesson whatsoever. Great stuff as always, Coach!
@@d-weezy thank you 🙏
