Hi Abey,

Take a look at our lessons on the Forehand Topspin Off Backspin and the Backhand Topspin Off Backspin.  These are two very important strokes and if you take the time to master them, you will improve your game significantly.

Stop Coming Back to Ready Position! Do This Instead…

Most players are told to always return to the ready position after every stroke but that might be hurting your game. In this video, we reveal a smarter way to recover:

✔ Track the ball immediately after your shot
✔ Move your racket into position for the next shot instead of blindly resetting
✔ Improve your timing, balance, and flow during rallies

Whether you’re a beginner or advanced player, understanding this subtle change can have a big impact on your consistency and speed around the table.
