I just wanted to say that this content is exactly what is needed. I took these tips today and applied them to my league match and it worked excellent. I only double faulted once but hit a good majority of my first serves because of this. I was doing a weird hip thing that was sort of hitching my movement but that leaning advice was perfect spot on

the fact that we get to see not just the break down of each serve, but how he explains it as the student tries to implement it. is HUGE. thats the key to this virtual tennis coaching, is hearing the stuff in-between serves. not just telling you how to do it the right way, but hearing how the coach helps as a student tries to do it. massively helpful

I agree, I've seen a lot of serve videos and this is the most helpful. Actually this channel is one of the best ones on KZread.

I’ve only watched two or three videos of Shamir and Nicola so far, but I love the dynamic between the two guys. It couldn’t be better even if it was scripted: one tall, one short; one a master one, one a student; one reserved, the other super eager. It’s great. And on top of that, we get the great tennis lessons.

This guy is the best coach I see in youtube. He deserves a million subs.

Your student has such a great attitude in learning. I’ve seen many video of him and I wish I half that personality and humbleness at a much younger age

That guy was overjoyed. He learned the kick and slice in one lesson and learn to distinguish what he needs to do to accomplish them. He's like a little kid on Christmas who just got suprised with two new toys. But he knows they're gifts that will keep on giving. Part of the enjoyment of sports.

Perfectly addressing common serve problems that many players/coaches don't even consider!

BONUS Racquet-tap masterclass a the end!!

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this lesson! It’s like I’m out on the court with you. The interaction with your students is so KEY because they ask questions that I would during a lesson. Thank you for being so comprehensive and taking the time to work with your student, stopping them when they are getting off track, and carefully demonstrating and explaining concepts. Thank you, thank you!

Shamir is a super cool dude and a great student. Some brilliant teaching there Nik. Honestly I haven't seen anyone with your approach, in teaching serves. Amazing!

As a coach of 20+ years myself, it is obvious you are a fantastic coach. 👍👍

Thank you for explaining racquet taps in this video! This is one area that drives me crazy when finishing matches, whether I won or lost... JUST HIT THE STRINGS!!!!

I woke up this morning to go practice my serves and this popped up in the recommendations. FANTASTIC tips!

Easily the best coaching channel on KZread. Fantastic explanations.

I wish I could find a coach like you in my area. I've taken lessons from 3 different coaches in the past 6 months and I can feel how all of them are just tryna get the hour done :(

Thanks for your lesson! Finally I can make the racket tap properly 😂

It's so useful to watch you work with advanced rec players. Most of the youtube tennis instruction is not aimed at that demographic. Thanks for sharing!

Shamir quotes misleading phrases then you patiently convey the correct terms, great coaching Nick despite the almost constant interjections.

This is great since most videos I see are either a beginner video or an advanced showcase of the serve. This is the goldilocks of all service instruction videos! Thank you!

this is the most “comprehensive serving crash course” on KZread! Covers all fundamentals for all three kinds of serve. Thank you coach!

Racquet taps lessons.. this is why I come here! =)

Great video. Really helpful to see a player at same skill level make same mistakes. Love the slow motion when he achieved success.

Lessons previously released by Intuitive Tennis were great. This lesson with a student just adds to how to hit a great kick serve. GREAT JOB!!!

Another superb video Nik. Thank you! Great explanation of all the fundamentals. Presented in a way that benefits players of every level. Also your abillty to instantly recognise and correct faults and technical problems in your students technique is second to none. Quite simply the best coach on KZread.

I think this is the best coaching video on the serve on KZread and I have watched a lot! Keep up the great content 👍 I found correct weight transfer made a huge difference in power and like you say a different sound of the racket!

this is extremely helpful in bringing improvements in a decent serve. thanks also for explaining the racquet taps.

Very clear explanations, and especially about the not opening up on the kick, and dropping the front shoulder down! The racquet tap tutorial is an invaluable pandemic bonus that you don't see almost anywhere else.

Excellent coaching

fantastic stuff, to hear the coach go through the dynamics of each type of serve & then see the coach troubleshoot the trainee real-time is brilliant. Thank you

I'm only just learning to serve properly but I think I will find some of the tips from this video very useful especially with the ball toss and leaning into the court with the left shoulder dropped more.

The best part learning the racket tap so wholesome love it great lesson

Glad you liked it!

This is one of the best videos I have watched on how to hit the different variations of the serve. It is very practical and easy to follow.

Excellent camera focus location to see the player's movement from beginning of serve to finish. Great lesson. Thank you.

It is good in this video that you emphasised and further demonstrated the content from your previous video on side on positioning for the Kick Serve. The videos you have made covering the Kick Serves have been quite helpful to me especially in mental queues for the processes leading up to the serve and visualising one's position beforehand. The point on the Ball toss for Kick and Slice are important especially for the Slice as it's always a more right-sided toss

Just starting tennis after almost 15 years and this channel is the best, I feel like I'm there with you taking lessons

Racket tap deserves a full individual tutorial 😆 👏🏻 a real modern tennis stroke after covid

I don't understand why people keep hitting my frame on the racquet tap. Thank you for addressing such a common mistake!

Coming back to tennis after taking many years off, and all these videos have been great to remind me of all the fundamentals you need to remember which are easy to forget and fall into basic muscle memory thanks Coach!

This was such a great teaching and coaching video. Thanks coach and thanks Shamir!

Love how you are going through the racket tap. For some weird reason the vast majority of people haven't grasped it yet... and this in May 2021! You should do a video with ONLY the tap!

Just getting back into tennis after a long hiatus. These lessons are GOLD. One of the very best coaches I’ve ever come across. Thanks!

Great lesson Nick, this is really helpful, seeing someone with similar mistakes as the ones we made and how to fix them, thanks for the video.

what a good tennis serve lesson. I keep coming back to watch this one and got new gems every time along with my own progression. Thanks so much Nick!

Super lekcija stari! Translation: Very clear straith to the point with all the little details. Great leson! Naše gore list!

Very patient instructor with a great eye for details.

I really love Shamir's attitude (not sure if written like this). Full of joy for the sport. It even makes me smile. Good stuff coach

I really enjoyed this video. I purchased your serve course and now with this video I can grasp even more information especially on the kick serve. Watching a student similar to my skill level and witnessing his mistakes and progression makes this video a great learning tool. Thanks, Ziggy

Your lessons with Samir are always helpful. Please keep these coming.

I wish you can teach my son

What a great Master class on serve!! Thanks 👏👏👏

Awesome technical instructions and great advice for avoiding bad habits! Awesome serves Shamir!

very well explained on a level of detail that I have not even seen on essential tennis which is another favorite site. Thank you for an educational and great lesson my favorite Tennisteacher! ☺️👌

Thnx for this very instructive video, with the highest info-density I have ever seen! Kick serve is an absolutely nessesary to build 2nd serve security and a great winner when people underestimate that spinning effect, even through their return (hitting out all the time).

nick, superb analysis... loved each and every detail.. I often forget shoulder over shoulder during the heat of a match (y).. Thank you !

This video is pure gold! Thanks!

Very good and entertaining video. Lot's to learn from the fellow trainee questions and comments and from Nic's advice. Thanks Nic!

This is the best video for serving, hands down!! Amazing breakdown and well explained; thank you coach Nik!! I'm a beginner, only been playing for about 4 months... used to constantly double fault, but I've improved my Flat and Slice serves dramatically with these 2 pointers: 1) toss the ball into the court and lean in (= effortless power and not hitting the ball behind my shoulder) 2) toss the ball at about 1 o'clock; then one of the below. 3a) Flat serve = just hit down on the ball 3b) Slice = hit the 'right' side of the ball. (It's SOOOOOO satisfying crunching one down the T on the 'non-deuce' side!! Get some good shape 👊🏼) My next Tennis goal is to get good at the kick serve... Mental notes for me: 1) continue to toss INTO the court, but towards 11 or 12 o'clock instead. 2) trophy position, lean, drop front shoulder... wrist position 'more neutral' and then exaggerate being sideways on contact. Wish me luck!! 🤞🏻

Very nice! Best explanation of Flat, kick and slice serve on youtube so far.

I've watched your videos so many times over and over and learn something from them everytime. Bringing this database of knowledge to the tennis courts however is definitely the hard part. Thanks Nikola! (Kick serve review: toss at 11/11:30, foreward momentum, keep the body sideways, turn the wrist upside down on the follow through)

This coach is BUTTER. I'm a new tennis player and love watching these, thank you man!

There are many of the videos of this type on youtube. But this one is the only one that helped. I was hitting slice serves instead of kickers. The exaggeration of the open body for feel and the dropped lead shoulder made the difference for me. Hitting some nice kickers now and working on adding pace.

Nick, the best kick serve coaching I've ever seen also you're the best one.i'm going to try today on my game at 3pm. Thx a million Prince

What a great class! I'm glad I found this video. Thank you for that!

This to me has always been the hardest thing to do!! Making a higher toss, and forcing yourself into the court is so uncomfortable because you’re not used to it. But when I actually get it right, I love the sound and I’ve learned that watching the ball into the racket makes a big difference

Super helpful demo and explanation. Really appreciate all the content you publish....some of the very best out there.

This maybe one of the best videos on serves I have seen so far !!!

You are the best coach , love your instructions using perfect words and good looking too! 🎾☘️💚

beautiful explanation on the kick serve! LOVE IT

Thanks Nick. Great explanations.

This is great! Thanks coach🍀

Nick you are the "best coach" online !!! Second to none.

Great video. I love how you are addressing this forward lean aspect, which hardly anyone does. I would like your opinion on the most effortless or easiest way to achieve this, starting with the service stance. I watched your "Croatian Service Technique" video and I am thinking that stance, where the back foot is positioned up forward of the front foot (left foot of a right hander), kinda toeing the line also, may be the best option. It really accentuates to me the chest facing skyward as you pointed out in your Croatian video.

Wow one of the best serve lessons i have seen... That clearly explain the differences

Definitely going to execute the correct racket tap during my match today.

Really appreciate this video! Why do coaches never teach the leaning concept with the body momentum? I had many injuries with my shoulder or my back because i had the feeiling to loose power and then force my strokes. The relationship between the toss and the body motion is now much clearer, thanks!

Great video. Thanks coach!

Super exciting! Thank you so much!

great video, watched all the way till the end to see the racket tap lesson. Magic!!

this video is very helpful , thank you

Excellent teaching.

Great lesson

Appreciate the insight as it is both unique and functional. The tips are from someone with knowledge of tennis both as a player and as a coach which I find to be missing in most other channels.

great video. great instruction. the student really drove great instruction w his questions.

I have a kick serve I have spent a lot of time practicing. I have started to practice my flat serve but pronation and flick of the wrist was a hurdle at first. A slice serve was unfathomable to me. Until now. Thank you for the “scooping the ball” analogy and going over how the location of the toss and the angle and path of the racquet will dictate what type of serve it is. I will spend many hours now practicing scooping the ball for my slice serve. BTW I really appreciate and enjoy your videos. Also more importantly I like your energy in these videos as you see it clicking for Shamir. ✌🏽
