    Coach Mauro — smoothest stroke I have ever seen. Like watching Pedro Martinez pitch!

    ADMIN: Tom, thank you for your also“smooth” & sweet words. – Coach Mauro

    Unbeliveable welath of information. Thank YOU guys. For sharing such invaluable tips. I can’t wait to try all the steps you shared in this segment of hitting a forehand straight or windshield wiper.

    Mauro sure looks smooth and executes the shot with an effortless mien. I want to hit like him. How does he hit high and low balls? Is it the same pattern?

    FANTASTIC.

    PS. I esp. like the tip to keep the wrist cocked throughout the shot. I have been puzzled on the wrist’s role from start to contact to follow-through.

    ADMIN: Joc, thanks for your feedback, clips on “high & low balls” coming out soon :-)

    thanks that really helped. Are you going to do another set of videos like this for the backhand? Which do you perfer Mauro 2handed or 1handed backhand?

    ADMIN: TennisFreak, yes, we’re going to put out both 1-Handed & 2-Handed BH! I have a 1-Handed BH myself, but I can also hit the 2-Hander pretty well, as I teach it a lot too. There is no better one, it’s a “personal choice” after all, a matter of ‘clicking’ with it! – Coach Mauro

    Again, I can’t say enough great things about Mauro’s teaching. With his extensive background, tutoring both the weekend warrior and the world class junior, Mauro consistently gets results!! And, yes…that’s one smooth forehand!! (Can’t wait for the backhand!!)

    ADMIN: Jack, appreciate your feedback amigo, backhand video “baking in d’oven”. – Coach Mauro

    This is great coach, can’t wait for the next video about hitting with more power and topspin!

    I’m from argentina, be very proud of your work, it’s know worldwide.

    I would love to see you talk about some brands or some rackets…

    ADMIN: Diego – gracias amigo. – Coach Mauro

    this great and i think lot of people think forehand is very easy short to play because that is first shot they starting to play but i think it is difficult shot to learn and hit.who ever got good forehand he can be a champion way we can see this the only short we can play inside out and you can easily use as a weapon on the court.so i think you are doing a fantastic job.hoping to see how you are going to teach voles.thanks for you lovely tips.

    ADMIN: Anthony, thanks for your feedback, volley clips coming soon :-)

    Coach Kyril,
    I’ve watched a ton of instruction on line – some good, some not so good – but never superb…until I ran across your videos. Now that you’ve teamed up with Mauro, the instruction you guys give is priceless! I’m picking up the game again after a 25 year absence and your tips have helped me tremendously. The game is really becoming enjoyable for me as I am learning to hit better and primarily, I have you to thank for it.

    Keep up the good work! I eagerly look forward to your next offerings.

    ADMIN: Thanks for the great feedback, Greg, and you are quite welcome!

    Hey Coach Kyril,

    I met you on the plane from Atlanta to Mpls. I watched a couple of videos and the info is well broken down. Mauro is pretty funny too. Thanks for the tips and I can’t wait to see your new footage.

    Best,

    David Johnson

    As others have commented here, these tennis videos are the most helpful I’ve found online.

    I’m tempted to sign up for the $17/month program. How about offering a one-month trial membership?

    Best,
    Charles
