(SEMI)PRIVATE OR FAMILY LESSONS
TENNIS OR PICKLEBALL, KIDS OR ADULTS
We appreciate that some kids or adults might be seeking a more personalized tennis or pickleball experience and/or may be wishing to accelerate the learning process through more one on one coaching, Others might not be comfortable in a group or may simply not be able to accommodate our class schedules.
For such people we offer private (1 coach & 1 player) or semi private (1 coach & 2-3 players) lessons arranged on a case by case basis in order to accommodate the schedules of both the players and coaches.
We may even be able to offer family lessons, as we have done in the past for those who want to participate alongside their kids.
If any of these option would be of interest to you please fill in the form available at the link below and we will respond to any questions and work to tailor a solution, outdoors or indoors, that works best for you.
ADULT PROGAMS AND SKILL LEVELS
We have both tennis and pickleball program options for adults at all levels. We categorize adults as being at the "Beginner and Experienced Beginner" stage, the "Intermediate" stage and the "Advanced" stage. Within these categories our coaches cater their approach--e.g., instructions, feedback, drills and ball feed- to match the specific skill level of each individual participant. At present our classes are for those from the beginner to intermediate level, while our (semi) private lessons may cater to all skill levels including advanced . Although we provide a general guide below, we may sometimes also recommend that you change classes based upon our in personal assessment of your play and that of fellow participants in order to ensure that skill levels are sufficiently compatible.
Beginner / Experienced Beginner
For players who are new to the sport, and for those who have played, perhaps even regularly, but have never learned the fundamentals in a structured way or who struggle with consistency in things that are fundamental to play such as serving or simply keeping a rally going. We build a solid foundation in grip, basic strokes, footwork, rules and scoring, so players can rally and play with confidence.
Intermediate
For players who can serve, return and rally fairly consistently and are comfortable playing games. The focus is on refining technique, improving consistency, adding new shots, and developing strategy and match play so players can take their game to the next level.
Advanced
For players who rally consistently with good control, have a solid command of all the basic strokes, have a basic understanding of tactical strategies, and regularly play competitive games or matches. The focus is on high-level technique, shot variety and power, tactical decision-making, and match play under pressure, helping players fine-tune their game for competition.
