Fix a Weak Serve, Forehand or Backhand With Laser-Focused Feedback From a Real OTI Coach.

The OTI Method is how thousands of recreational players have jumped a rating, added real power to their serve, and built a forehand that holds up under pressure. It starts with one simple thing: a coach looking at your exact swing.

Send us a video. We will tell you what to fix.

The OTI Method

Picture the next time you step on court. The toss goes where you want. The racket hits the ball where you want. The ball lands where you want. Your opponent takes a half-step back. That is the feeling. That is what changes when a real coach finally sees what your body is actually doing.

You have watched the YouTube videos. You are still stuck at the same rating.

You have been playing for years. You know the grips. You know the follow-through. You have paid for lessons from club pros who told you to bend your knees and watch the ball. You have watched hundreds of free tennis videos. None of it has moved the needle.

So you step on court, and the serve is still short. The second serve still sits up and asks to be hit. The forehand still disappears on the third ball. You lose to someone you should beat. Again.

The specific shot you remember three days later.

It is not a talent problem. It is not an effort problem. It is the part of the swing you cannot see without a coach in the room. Ninety percent of technical fixes hide in the half-second before contact, and the half-second after. You cannot feel them. You cannot diagnose them from your own video. Someone with a trained eye has to look.

That is the gap the OTI Method was built to close.

The Coach

Florian Meier

Founder & Head Coach, Online Tennis Instruction

Florian built Online Tennis Instruction on one idea: tennis should be taught the way every other serious sport is taught, with video, with measurement, and with methods that get proven or thrown out. The guessing game ends when a coach can actually see what you are doing.

He studied under Steve Smith (who spent 20 years inside Vic Braden's tennis research center in California), refined his teaching after years with Oliver Heuler (Germany's leading golf instructor), and has read everything John Yandell ever published. His belief is straightforward: if a method cannot be demonstrated on video and repeated by a student, it is not a method. It is an opinion.

The OTI Digital Coach

Send us a video. Get a real review. For ten dollars.

No subscriptions, no commitment, no call.

For ten dollars, a USPTA-certified OTI coach will watch a video of your stroke and send you back a personalized review. Not a template. Not an automated report. A real human on the OTI team looking at what your body is actually doing, and telling you the one or two fixes that will move the needle fastest.

The same ten dollars also unlocks access to the OTI library: over 2,000 instructional videos organized by stroke, by problem, and by rating level, so the moment you know what to work on you can walk straight to the drill that fixes it.

What You Get

Four things every serious recreational player is missing

Not four lessons. Four things OTI is built to deliver that almost no other tennis program does.

The OTI filter. Fewer fixes, done in the right order

Most players are told to fix everything. That is why nothing changes.

  • Every stroke has a dominant error. OTI identifies yours first
  • Small fixes are sequenced so each one stacks on the one before it
  • You work on one thing at a time, not twelve

"I have been able to bring up my game from a 3.5 to a 4.0 in five months. My favorite parts are the video analysis and the downloadable, printable mental toughness tips."

"Before working with Florian my serve was a major weakness. Now my serve is a major weapon. Without the improved serve I would not have won the German Under 18 National Championships."
Sonja Larsen, OTI student and German U18 National Champion

Individual results may vary.

Included with the ten dollar review

Three printable bonuses that make the review work harder

Not fluff. Not a "resource guide." Three pieces built to squeeze more out of the personalized review you just bought.

These are just example free bonuses meant to increase conversion rates on your main offer. This has been the difference between getting a 1x breakeven for my clients and getting a 4x return.

Full-Service Paid Growth for Founder-Led Brands

I run Facebook and Instagram ads for founder-led education businesses.

My clients are people like you: creators and educators who have built real audiences through years of hard work, great content, and word of mouth. They come to me when they are ready to pour fuel on what is already working.

I'm selective. The business has to genuinely help people, the customers have to love it, and I have to feel proud if someone found out I was behind the ads. Online Tennis Instruction checks every box.

Since January 2026

Not hypothetical. Not from three years ago. These happened in the last few months.

New York Times Bestseller.

Got a client onto the New York Times bestseller list. He had been chasing that goal on his own for over a decade. I built the campaign that finally got him there.

How I Work

100% Performance-Based. Since January 2015.

I don't charge if it's not profitable. That's not a tagline. It's been the deal for over eleven years.

"You Cover the Ad Spend. I Earn My Keep."

I take a percentage of the growth I bring in, only after the math works. After ad spend. After your expenses. After my fee. If it's not profitable after everything is accounted for, where you make more than I do, I don't charge. That's why I only take on clients I'm confident I can deliver for. I never spend just to spend.

"Full-Service. Not Just Ads."

Facebook ads management is the core, but I also build the landing pages, create the ad visuals, and develop new bonuses designed to lift conversion rates on both the ads and the offer. Everything on this pitch page, the design, the copy, the bonus kit, is the kind of work I do for every client.

"You Keep Everything. No Strings."

Every page, bonus, and creative asset I build is yours. Use it for organic traffic, email campaigns, wherever. No exclusivity clauses, no extra percentages. If something I made helps your audience through a channel I'm not running, that's a win.

In warm-up, your forehand looks fine. The contact feels clean. Your partner nods. Then the match starts. Third ball of the first point. You frame it. That is not a fitness problem. It is a technical flaw that only shows up under pressure, and it is almost always one of three things. The right coach can spot it in thirty seconds of video. Send us a clip for ten dollars. A USPTA-certified OTI coach will tell you which of the three fixes is yours.

Simi had been playing club tennis for years. He wanted to break 4.0 and could not. Five months after buying an OTI program, he was a 4.0. His own words: "My favorite parts are the video analysis and the downloadable, printable mental toughness tips." The jump from 3.5 to 4.0 is not about grinding more hours. It is about finding the one or two things in your swing that are costing you points and fixing them in the right order. Send us a video of your stroke. A USPTA-certified OTI coach will review it and tell you where your 4.0 is hiding. Ten dollars. No subscription.
