There are currently two schools of thought on how to teach tennis.

Approach 1 - develop power, but strokes have limitations.

Approach 2 - develop classical technique with hard, aggressive and healthy ALL kinds of strokes-no limitations.

The Brankovsky Tennis School and all of the teaching materials you will find on this site are firmly placed within the second approach. The advantage of the second approach is that building the proper fundamentals allows for the highest potential for growth. Although the first approach has produced some good young players, they tend to stagnate and are more likely to develop tennis related injuries.

Advantages of the Wall Method and the Brankovsky Tennis School:

• Allows for high repetition of tennis fundamentals
• Decreased risk of tennis related injuries
• Tennis can be practiced year round without winter tennis facilities
• Every student gets individual attention in a group lesson
• Every student progresses at his/her own pace
• From beginners to top players - all can improve
• Students can learn from fundamentals to all the finesses in any stroke
• Reduces tennis related injuries
• By using gymnasiums, cost of lessons is reasonable and provides high value for the money

Advantages of the Smart Starter paddle racquet:

• Uses a developmentally appropriate size of racquet to allow usage of the proper technique and fundamentals from the beginning
• Teaches good basic forehand, one-handed backhand, volley, lob and smash and efficient, aggressive all-court tennis game from the beginning
• Supports learning of proper stroke technique
• Assists young children to manipulate the racquet in a controlled manner
• Allows children to guide the ball with a firm wrist
• Reduces instances of tennis related injuries
• Is made of wood and can be passed on from generation to generation

You too can benefit from the advantages above and learn to play tennis using the Brankovsky Tennis methods on your own by purchasing BTS teaching materials. If these methods have already worked for you, remember that they make a great gift for someone that you know who would like to learn to play tennis for a lifetime!
