Our beginner class focuses on stroke technique and pure fundamentals from the perspective of a player who has never held a racquet. This will include dead ball feeding (drop-and-hit, tossing, and coach feeding) with some live ball rallying. Covering forehands, backhands, volleys, overheads, and serves, participants will have learned all the major building blocks of tennis.

This is a great course to learn if you have never played before, or if you want to better understand and review the core fundamentals of the game.

The focus is on calm reconnection with ourselves rather than working out. Please bring a mat and a water bottle. This class will be held at the School of Kinesiology building.
