- teddyh 5y agoThis has also been observed by the author of The Inner Game of Tennis. In a talk by Alan Kay, Alan Kay shows a clip in where the author of that book (whose name I do not remember) was challenged by some TV team to teach tennis to some lady who had never been physically active at any level. They showed him doing it, and then he explained to the TV team how he did it. IIRC, one thing he did was that, while distracting the woman with conversation, he did the correct movement with a racket, and made sure she saw him. Then he asked her to perform some very simple actions with a racket, and she unconsciously copied his movement form more or less perfectly.
