Kids Cardio is a group tennis training activity featuring action-based tennis drills and games for children ages 6 through 12 of all ability levels. It emphasizes movement in a fun high energy workout for kids. Includes warm-up, cardio workout, and cool-down phases. Using age-appropriate equipment, the environment develops tennis and athletic skills and improves health and fitness - USTA 10 and Under Tennis
This ground-breaking new program from the United States Tennis Association (USTA) gives kids age 10 and under the opportunity to learn real tennis... and have real fun doing it! Using the QuickStart Tennis play format, the classes use racquets, balls and courts that are sized right for kids so that they learn, rally, play, compete and enjoy the game right from the start. The courts are smaller (but still to scale); the balls are lighter, slower-moving and easier to hit; and racquets are smaller and lighter. It's not remedial and not just for beginners--it's real tennis, tailored to a child's size (just like other youth sports like soccer, basketball and baseball have done for years). All classes include warm-up and cool-down activities, skill review and practice, and team games that reinforce tennis skills and tactics. For more information, visit www.10andUnderTennis.com. Visit www.ParkPASS.org and sign up for a class today.
Tennis classes and special programs are available throughout the year for all skill levels and ages, and are taught by accredited USPTA and USPTR instructors. To view seasonal listings of group tennis lessons and sessions, and to register online, visit www.ParkPASS.org, or contact us directly.
Private Lessons
