Indoor Lessons
The Tennis Club offers three sessions of indoor tennis lessons for children and adults throughout the indoor tennis season as well as a Summer session.
Junior Lesson Format: Our Junior instruction starts with the QuickStart Tennis program for ages 3-10. Quick Start Tennis is tailored to younger ages and sizes and designed to get your child playing tennis almost immediately. Our Junior format features more categories and levels which means your child can play and learn with those closer to his or her own age.
Adult Group Lessons are available from beginners through advanced players as well as a Tenni-Fit class which uses tennis to promote a more strenuous workout and aerobic fitness.
