Refining volley technique and strategic court positioning.
What Your Guru Thinks
This lesson with Coach Germán Schafer is particularly insightful for refining your volley technique and tactical decision-making. He emphasizes that many "technical" issues are actually poor strategic choices, like attacking when you should block or choosing the wrong direction. The coach guides you on understanding your natural swing and committing to smart court positioning, especially at the net. You'll learn to adapt your game speed and shot selection based on your opponent's pace, helping you play more strategically and effectively.
Description
In this video, I train with Germán Schäfer, one of the top padel coaches, to fix my volley technique.
He helps me improve my preparation, timing, and shot selection — three key aspects that completely changed how I play at the net.
I realized that most of my mistakes weren’t about technique, but about decision-making. Germán showed me how to stay balanced, shorten my preparation, and control the speed and size of my movements to play smarter and more efficiently.
If you struggle with volleys, watch this session carefully — every point Germán makes can help you make better choices and dominate the net.
