Learn Tennis in San Diego
Adult beginner classes especially designed to teach new players the fundamentals of tennis including technique, movement, grips, and smart shot selection!
Are you or a friend/family member looking to learn tennis?
Throughout San Diego there are several "orange" and "green dot" adult beginner clinics!
​
Orange ball is designed specifically for those new to the game, offering an easy and enjoyable way to learn tennis fundamentals. The lower-compression orange balls are slower and bounce lower, giving you more time to react, helping build your skills with confidence.
​
What to expect for Orange Ball classes:
-
Beginner-Friendly: With the use of orange balls, we'll guide you through the basics, making it easier to hit and rally while learning proper technique.
-
Hands-On Coaching: Our experienced instructors will walk you through each step, ensuring you’re comfortable and progressing at your own pace.
-
Full Engagement: No previous experience is necessary! From the first lesson, you’ll be actively playing and improving your game.
-
Build Confidence: The slower ball speed allows you more time to develop your strokes, footwork, and positioning.
-
Supportive Atmosphere: You'll learn alongside fellow beginners in a fun, encouraging environment, making it easier to enjoy the game and stay motivated.
​
Green ball is perfect for those who have a basic understanding of tennis or have completed an orange ball program and are ready for a slightly faster game. The green balls have a bit more bounce but still offer a controlled, beginner-friendly pace to help you continue improving.
​
What to expect for Green Ball classes:
-
Progressive Learning: With green balls, you'll experience a game closer to standard tennis, but with a slightly lower bounce, giving you time to develop more control and precision.
-
Skill Development: Our professional coaches will help you enhance your strokes, footwork, and consistency as you move towards a full-court experience.
-
Active Play: You’ll engage in more dynamic rallies and point play, while still focusing on technique and strategy to build your confidence.
-
Supportive Environment: Learn alongside peers in a friendly, encouraging atmosphere where you can comfortably grow your skills and enjoy the game.
-
Full-Court Experience: As you progress with green balls, you’ll be introduced to more advanced drills and exercises designed to prepare you for playing with standard yellow balls.
