What is called when every stroke tennis consists of a sequence of movements?

I'm guessing you're asking "What is it called when every stroke in tennis has a sequence of movements?" If that is the case my best guess would be that you're referring to the "pronation" that tennis players go through when hitting the ball (Especially during serves) It's the way your grip changes on impact. The thing about pronation though is that different people will say it has slightly different meanings ie: movements before hits, hand & thumb movement, wrist and forearm. Hope this helped :) Source, My own tennis experience.
