Specialty balls and other teaching aides are used to get players rallying fast! Make sure to pickup a great HEAD racket for your tennis class at our pro-shop.

ADVANCED BEGINNING

For students graduating with 1-2 sessions of Beginning tennis. In this level, we add more movement to ground strokes and develop basic left and right control of the ball. Players at this level will participate in fun and challenging point play simulations. Volleys and basic doubles play is also introduced.

INTERMEDIATE/ADVANCED

Students will be introduced to more advanced techniques and shots like topspin and overheads. Students also improve their overall confidence and consistency of the groundstrokes and serve.
