I have been watching your videos, but they all seem to be for the shake hands grip. I use the pen holder grip, and was wondering if the general concepts used are similar. If not, can you possibly make videos about the pen holder grip?

Hi David,

We have concentrated on the shakehand grip in all of our videos.

The basic for a lot of penhold is the same especially for the forehand.  If you are using the reverse side for your backhand, the principles are very much the same as well. However if you are using the same side for backhand there are a few differences as you may know.

If you have any other questions about how to do things with the penhold grip ask us here and we will help you out.
