You can burn up to 700 per class with dynamic stretching, hitting lots of tennis balls and engaging in other cardio activity to energetic, motivating music! Call Jonni at 714-366-2985 to sign up. This is the best way to get in to tennis. If you don’t have a racquet or you feel your racquet is outdated, don’t worry, we have plenty of Demo racquets you can try out.

TENNIS TIP: I GET ASKED A LOT IF IT’S TOO LATE TO START TENNIS, OR HOW EARLY CAN I GET MY KIDS INVOLVED IN TENNIS. THERE REALLY IS NO AGE CUTOFF FOR PLAYING TENNIS. YOU CAN BEGIN AS A KID AT 5 YEARS OLD OR YOU CAN BEGIN LATER IN LIFE; YOU'LL ENJOY IT JUST AS MUCH. TENNIS IS A LOT LIKE GOLF WHEN YOU FIRST START PRACTICING/PLAYING. TO GET THE BEST RESULTS AND GET OVER THE BEGINNER HUMP, TRY TO PLAY 4 TIMES A WEEK FOR 2 MONTHS, THIS WILL GET THE WHEELS TURNING AND YOU WILL NEVER LOOK BACK. BESIDES, THE HEALTH BENEFITS OF PLAYING TENNIS ARE UNMATCHED!
