You don't seem to look at the ball coming off your racquet. Might add some consistency if you do. Try starting your forehand with weight transfer and more hip rotation. That should bring your arm around more naturally and raise accuracy and power. Good footwork. The deep forehand where you are running back is a tough one. Flatten out your shot to get the ball deeper, or try and get your last step towards the net to get your normal stroke, otherwise you will hit a lot long. You spin your racquet between each shot. No big deal. Overall, good stokes.

Ok, today for some reason was pretty hard to dial in especially with the back hands. I tried to put in practice some suggestions, maybe to many because sometime I jammed but I guess I'm here to learn and open to comments.
The first video is a mixed shots and the second since I was having hard time with the backhands it's all about back hands.

Don't fall asleep!!!
