hi. i am a right handed player but i am also left footed. sometimes i find myself stepping with my left when the correct way would be to use the right one. i am working on paying close attention to my leg work but my question is:  Can i actually use my left footed situation to my advantage and if so would it work?  Thank you very much.

Hi Alex,

The reason we put or right foot a little in front of the left or even is so that your body can rotate properly and be balanced when you are playing.  I would say try to change your feet position.  It will allow your whole body to help you with your strokes.
