CARDIO TENNIS: Cardio Tennis is a fun group activity for anyone, at any playing level,
looking for a fun way to burn calories & interact with others outside of the gym.
Cardio Tennis is a high energy fitness session that combines the best features of the sport of tennis with cardiovascular exercise, delivering the ultimate, full body, calorie burning aerobic workout.
Most women can burn 300 to 500 calories per hour and men burn between 500 to 1,000.
Not only are you getting a great workout, but you are also learning a skill and training for
tennis.
TENNIS XPRESS:
Tennis Xpress is an ITF Official Programme and is an easy, active and fun
coaching programme for adults.
The aim is to help starter adults to serve, rally and score (play the game) from
the first session and to ensure that by the end of the course:
all adults will know the basic techniques, tactics and the Rules of Tennis
For the purpose of this course, adult starter players are defined as those who:
are complete beginners to tennis i.e. have never played tennis before, or
who have received basic coaching but have never played the game outside of a
coaching environment, or
beginners returning to tennis after a long absence
