Waist turning is generated by the forward armswing of the racket and the forward weight transfer from back foot to front foot. When the front foot hits the floor the waist turns so that the energy can be dissipated smoothly. Thus its legs hipps and shoulder that give the power: - the waist itself just needs to be supple |

serve,footwork can be trained without partner...but u should have a partner to receive your serve,and so you can know what's the spin of your serve

To throw another spanner into the works, I suggest taking up a quality martial art. Studying karate for a few years really improved my balance, timing, speed, concentration. Also aids in using the whole body to put force behind/on the ball

I've written some thoughts about training by yourself (including service practice, shadow play, footwork drills, video analysis, robots, exercise, and mental training), which you might find helpful.

This may work for some people, but for the amateurs I've taught, their practice swing is never the same as their actual swing. I'm teaching this kid to serve, and his form is great when I ask him to show me the motion without a ball, but once he tries it with a ball, he does it all differently. So using a mirror may have a very limited benefit. |

That he does it correctly without the ball shows, in part, the value of shadow practice. The strokes should be learned in "muscle memory" Doing them incorrectly causes you to learn them incorrectly. When done in the mirror where you can see your errors and correct them, you enable yourself to learn them correctly. In time you will have corrected your form and your muscle memory will have the proper stroke ingrained.
This practice without the ball is very helpful in training for proper timing of ball contact in relation to the body. With no ball to deal with you will always practice the contact timing correctly. Then when you have the ball to deal with you will automatically want to use your feet move to the ball in order to contact the ball the same way you have been doing it in your shadow practice. You should have your student do the serve practice without the ball until it transfers to doing it correctly with the ball. This may take time, but it will work. |
