Placement - Please Read
Due to the concerns raised by students and staff regarding the range of abilities in the adult classes, the teaching staff conducts an evaluation of all students in
our lesson program. If you have any questions regarding your appropriate level, please contact Tim Schmidt or Alexander Shubny before registration. Due to time
constraints during the registration process, pros will not be available to discuss changes in levels. New students can estimate their level from the descriptions
above and are encouraged to make an appointment to hit with a pro to ensure placement in the appropriate level. |

Tennis

is an exciting
way to get in
shape and burn
calories on the court. By elevating your heart
rate into your aerobic training zone, you can
burn more calories than during singles or
doubles tennis. Each hour-long class includes
a 10 minutes warm-up, 40 minutes of aerobic
workout, and 10 minutes of cool down.
Men and women of all tennis ability levels are
welcome. An effective workout will be achieved
by all, as the tennis pro will challenge each
player at his/her ability and fitness level.
A minimum of 4 student per class is
required.
