Improve your fitness levels and burn up to 600 calories with Cardio Tennis sessions. It's a fun, high energy workout which takes place on the court.

Cardio Tennis sessions are a great activity with drills to give players of all abilities the ultimate, high energy workout. Each session includes a warm up, cardio workout, and cool down phases. It’s the perfect way to get in shape and burn calories!

There are drills for beginners through to advanced players, all of which provide you with a great cardio workout while improving skill. 

Cardio Tennis can be a unique and fun form of exercise that reaps many benefits:

• You'll consistently elevate your heart rate into your aerobic training zone

• It’s much more fun than working out on a machine!

• Sessions involve short bursts of high intensity workouts and periods of rest, almost like interval training, which burns more calories

• It’s a fun group activity where players of all abilities can enjoy tennis together

• If you haven’t played for a while, or don’t know who to play locally, it can be a great way to get back into tennis and meet new people

• Even though you’re playing tennis, the focus is primarily on getting a great workout

• You'll naturally improve your game because you hit so many balls and repeat various shots

Essential information:

• These sessions are run on a weekly basis

• Players should wear comfortable sports clothing and trainers or tennis shoes. 

• We recommend that players arrive at least 15 minutes before so that they are ready for the start of the session
