The majority of the program is the workout phase, which should last around 50 minutes.

Does Cardio Tennis replace regular lessons / matches?

No. Cardio Tennis is the 3rd way to play tennis. This “new form” of tennis just stresses a great workout vs great forehands and backhands. We advise existing players who have regular squad/private lessons or play matches to continue with those activities, as this new program is designed to give you a great workout rather than teach the mechanics of tennis.

Is Cardio Tennis Safe?

Absolutely. Our goal is to keep all players working out below their maximum heart rate and in their aerobic training zone. Your maximum heart rate is calculated as 220 less your age, and your aerobic training zone is 65% – 85% of your maximum heart rate. We may also play music during your workout because it offers a fun, energizing atmosphere.

How much does Cardio Tennis Cost?

Cardio Tennis costs just $125 per 10 week term ($12.50 per session). It is recommended that participants experience Cardio Tennis no more than 3 times per week.
