Is it okay to lift up the other side of the table and practicing like that?

Hi Leaonardo,

You can do that if you don't have the option of a hitting partner.  It is a little bit limited though because the ball comes back to you in a different way than it would in a game but it is good for basic hitting and getting better control.

We also have a video on Practicing Alone.

Forehand and Backhand Topspin

The forehand and backhand topspin strokes are two of the most important strokes in table tennis. In lesson 6 you start playing these strokes first by getting someone to throw the ball to you. This makes it easier to get into the correct position and concentrate on the correct start and finish position, and the essential brushing contact. You can then progress to using this in a rally where your training partner learns to block the topspin back.
