Frankie Dell: Hi, I am Frankie Dell. I am a Professional Tennis Instructor. You are watching ground strokes. Next, I am going to show the proper Forward Swing. Now we have prepared for the shot for one hander. We are here, racquet is back and we have started to step into the shot toward the net.

Now. the Swing Forward should be a low to high movement. So you want to swing from low to high. Low to high. Now in between the low and the high is where you are going to make contact. You want that to be in front of you and then high. Low high. Low, contact in front and high, alright.

Now for the two hander. We have already prepared here. We are going to step out and again, it's a low to high movement. Low high, low to high and in between the low and the high is where we are going to make contact. Low, contact, high. Contact contact, low, contact high and that's the Forward Swing.
