Hello,
How can I improve my reaction?

Hi Mantas,
One simple way is to do a training drill where your partner hits a the ball anywhere and you hit it back to one position. You can slow down or increase the pace depending on how well you are doing. You should play ata pace where you are getting at least 6 to 8 balls on per rally at first. As you find this easier you can increase the pace.
This drill and many others are covered in our new DVD Training Secrets Revealed. It willhelp you with many areas of your game and show you the best Training Drills to work on to improve different areas of your game.

Building Block 3: Master Random Drills for Match-Ready Table Tennis
The third building block of table tennis is practising random drills, where you don’t know where the ball will go. This type of training mimics real match conditions, helping you develop faster reactions and better decision-making.
Start with drills where 80% of the balls go to a set position and 20% are random. As you become more comfortable, gradually increase the randomness to challenge yourself further. Incorporating random drills into your training will make your game more dynamic and match-ready.
Here's a great video on helping you improve this building block
