How It Works

The Coaching Method

Every lesson follows a clear structure — but no two sessions are the same. Joe adapts the approach to what you need on that day.

01

Demonstration First

Every technique is shown to you before you practise it. Joe plays to a high competitive standard — meaning every shot is demonstrated with real quality, not just described.

02

Drills & Games

Technique is reinforced through targeted drills and competitive games. Practising under match pressure is how real improvement happens — not just feeding balls.

03

Focus on 2–3 Things

Too much information at once is counterproductive. Each lesson focuses on two or three aspects of your game — enough to make real progress, without overloading you.

04

Relaxed & Purposeful

Sessions are structured but never stressful. Joe creates a relaxed atmosphere where you can enjoy the game, ask questions freely, and maximise actual time on the ball.

Video Analysis Available

Joe can record your shots so you can review and study your own game between sessions — one of the most effective tools for accelerating improvement at any level.

What You'll Learn

Everything From the Ground Up

From your first grip to advanced matchplay — Joe covers all aspects of the game, adapted to your current level and where you want to get to.

Every player's journey is different. Beginners start with the fundamentals that build lasting habits. Intermediate players iron out technical weaknesses. Advanced players work on the tactical and competitive side of the game.

Joe's teaching style is clear, demonstrable and adaptable — no jargon, no one-size-fits-all programmes. Just focused work on the things that will genuinely make you a better player.

Foundation
Grips & Core Technique

Everything in tennis starts with the grip. Joe teaches the correct grip for every shot — eastern, western, continental — so your technique has a solid foundation from day one.

"A good grip makes every other technique possible. It's the first thing we fix and the last thing players want to change — so we get it right early."

— Joe Jeynes
Groundstrokes

Forehand and backhand — topspin, slice and flat. The backbone of every rally, taught with progressive drills that build consistency and power.

The Serve

Flat, topspin and slice serves — from the basic motion through to advanced placement and spin variation. The most important shot in tennis, covered in depth.

Volleys & Smash

Net play and the overhead smash — often neglected, always decisive. Joe works on both the technique and the court positioning to make you dangerous at the net.

Footwork & Movement

Good footwork puts you in position to hit every ball well. Split steps, recovery runs and court coverage — the unsexy work that makes everything else easier.

Matchplay & Strategy

Knowing your patterns of play, when to be aggressive and how to handle pressure. Essential for anyone playing competitive tennis or leagues in Leeds.

Rules of the Game

From scoring to let calls to tie-break procedures — essential knowledge for anyone new to tennis or just looking to firm up their understanding of the game.

Video Analysis — See Your Own Game

Joe can record your shots during a session so you can study your technique between lessons. Seeing yourself play is one of the fastest ways to understand what needs to change — and what's already working well.

Choose Your Format

Individual or Group?

Both formats work. The best choice depends on your goals, your budget and what you enjoy most.
