ok, that dude that said wii is an idiot… that in no way shape or form helps with tennis. im a pro in cincinnati ohio and its 58$ an hour for a lesson with me, i know a guy in florida who charges 120$ an hour… call around to local clubs and ask pricing… but remember, if a pro costs less it prolly means they arent as qualified. where i teach, we have a guy who is 48 an hour, one that is 54 an hour. and the director of tennis is 64 an hour… just to kind of give you an idea

If you can’t afford a coach (and, no, a Wii is not a coach) then get a friend to teach you to play. Maybe you can take him or her out for lunch everytime you have a lesson. I know in the US many club pros conduct clinics that players can attend – the ones in my city are $20 (US dollars) for 1.5 hours. It’s not one-on-one instruction, but you do get some good tips and a lot of practice.

Wii sports helps you get the wrist movements. lol. Tennis is one of those sports you just learn from expierience. There isnt a “proper way” to do it really. Just hold the racket right side up. Like golf: use the right clubs hold it right ect. Just know the rules and PLAY!
