Mastering the foundational continental grip for Padel.
What Your Guru Thinks
This is a truly essential lesson for anyone starting out in padel. Coach Sandy clearly explains the importance of the continental grip right from the beginning. It covers common mistakes players make, especially those coming from tennis, and provides practical steps like using your non-dominant hand to help with grip changes. Learning the correct grip early on sets a strong foundation for all your shots. And the tip about practicing against a wall is golden for building confidence with the continental grip.
