Building the Serve from the Ground Up
Detailed instruction, providing you with a roadmap as well as a blueprint to improve nearly any area of your game. Includes video lessons, detailed text explanation, reference to professional examples - and the lessons are grounded in basic biomechanics as well as fundamental teaching methods. There is a world of online instruction now available - I believe ours is unique as we strive to be lucid, accesible, and in nearly all instances with the opportunity for actual evaluation of your technique from your own video submissions back to me for a personal review.
Building the Serve is no exception, it is an online multimedia resource for players, coaches and students of the game. Coursework includes 30 videos, and a separate companion booklet and drill sheets can all be downloaded for your convenience.
Also includes a complementary stroke review valued at $47 – this is where I personally review your serve and provide detailed structured feedback with the exact exercises, highlighted sequential elements and specific articles tailored to your needs.
Lastly, we re also included 30 days access the the ETI Network, a membership site with over 5 years on content delivered every month. These are ideal for you to pass on to your students!
The following bonuses have been built into BTS and serve as perfect complements to the coursework
- Side Spin lesson
- Nuances of the Grip
- Throwing Up to Serve with more Snap
- The Whip Serve
- Automatic Teachers for how to Serve on Balance, Winding Up and Unwinding and Snapping the Racquet

Dear Jim, I read your article "Prepare Early -or- Wait" and agree 100% on the following points…
Keep up the great work, tennis needs coaches like you. Best wishes,

Another great article! Thanks for all you do for the game and it's coaches! Best wishes and keep up the great work.

No lesson I have ever had with a teaching pro — and I’ve had a lot — ever made the kick serve remotely as clear as Jim McLennan’s superb online videos. Bravo!
- Oscar Wegner, TennisTeacher.com![]()
Jim, this is such a fabulous article, and such great food for thought. You continue to be an inspiration not just for the player, but for coaches as well.

Jim McLennan is one of my unsung heroes. He is a true student of the game, who puts learning and sharing what he researches above all else. If Jim shares information, you can take it to the bank. He does not speculate, nor is he stuck in “old school” ways of doing things. From his online courses to his work with his own students, he brings forward the best of the best, combined with wisdom derived from decades of playing and teaching.
