WETENNIS
(AGES 3- 5)
WeTennis lessons are ideal for children ages 3-5 years old to improve coordination and socialization. In addition, they have a greater capacity for attention to adapt to the conditions of the classes and the demands of tennis.
WeTennis is a curriculum that emphasizes repetition with steady progressions, balloons, bubbles and other interactive items which drastically increases and engages a child's overall motor skills with a racquet in their hand.
Each lesson is only thirty (30) minutes and is a 4:1 ratio max meaning we can break down the foundational tennis basics in digestible bites while offering completely personalized attention and pacing.
ProsToYou will provide the junior racquets for players to use during the WeTennis classes and other fun equipment/supplies like balloons, bubbles and much more
