What a session looks like

The hour, start to finish

  1. 01

    Warm-up that looks like a game, because at this age it should be.

  2. 02

    One skill introduced through play — catching, tracking, swinging low to high.

  3. 03

    Rallying at whatever distance works for that child, with a ball that bounces at their height.

  4. 04

    A game to finish. They should leave wanting the next one.

Who it's for

Ages four to fourteen. The youngest play on a small court with red low-compression balls; older children move up through orange and green balls to a full court, then into rallying, scoring and their first matches.

Ages

4–14, grouped by age and stage.

Equipment

Short racquets and low-compression balls provided.

Progression

Red → orange → green → yellow ball, at their pace.

Questions

Kids lessons, answered

Call or text
How young can my child start tennis?

Around four. At that age the session is mostly coordination games with a racquet involved — but it builds the tracking and footwork everything else sits on.

Does my child need their own racquet?

Not to begin with. I bring right-sized racquets, and I will tell you what to buy once I have seen them play.

Are lessons private or in groups?

Both. Younger children often do best in a small group where it feels like play; juniors working toward team tennis usually mix a group with a weekly private.
