Do you have any tips on teaching topspin to beginners?

Hi John,

The ideal thing is to take a look at the lesson on Forehand Topspin.  This gives you the feet position, as well as the start and finish points of your swing you need to concentrate on with the beginners.  The most important of these is the finish position.  If you can get them to doo this correctly, the rest will fall into place.

Let me know if you need further help with it.
