Group and Private Lessons
Learn from the best!
Group Lessons
Group lessons are a great way to get motivated, stay active and improve your game while having fun! Meet and play with others at your level.
The ratio of students to pro will be max 4/1. These lessons are offered to players of same rating in order to maintain a good level of play. Instruction focuses on a variety of skills including strokes and footwork, serving, singles strategy, doubles strategy and much more!
Group Lessons offered during weekday evenings and weekends are open to our full members only. Lessons offered during weekday daytimes are available for all our members.
Schedule: Clinics are offered in bundles of 4 lessons, with an extra week allowed for rain-outs. Our pro publishes the clinics on Court Reserve few weeks before the sessions are scheduled to start. These lessons are very popular, so make sure to register on time. Check prices here.
Private Lessons
To make big strides forward in your overall tennis abilities, getting professional coaching is certainly a good idea.
Everyone can get better and even the top ranked players in the world constantly try to incorporate new shots, new strategies, better movement, increased fitness, more concentrated focus, improved technique, etc. into what they do. Learning how to hit the ball properly and how to move on the court can also help to reduce injury and extend your time on the court. Please contact our head pro Brian Ahlberg to schedule your next private or semi private lessons. These sessions are available to club members only. Check prices here.
Important: any private lesson cancellation within 24 hrs requires the full fee to be paid to the coach.
