Introduce your child to the lifelong sport of tennis! Tenicity’s coaching team teaches stroke fundamentals preparing players for rallies and games. Coaches provide encouragement and facilitate a joy for the game. Lessons will follow Tenicity’s Beginner Development Pathway, designed to help players progress step by step. Program Skill Levels: Participants will be grouped according to their skill level: Beginner Stage 1: For new players with little or no prior tennis experience. Stage 2 or 3: For players with some prior training, grouped by ability as assessed by our coaches. Makeup Policy: If a lesson has started and interrupted by weather, no makeup or refund given for the lost time. Makeup lesson times (up to a maximum of 2 hours for the session) will be communicated to participants.

Gymnasts will learn basic tumbling skills such as forward and backward rolls, cartwheels, handstands, basic jumps and locomotor skills, and discover the basics on bars, balance beam, and vault. More advanced Tumblers will work on intermediate skill progressions on floor, bars, balance beam and vault. New skills introduced include back bends, front and back handsprings on floor, back hip circles, and stride circles on bars and cartwheels on low beam.

Children will use mats, parachutes, trampoline, and other equipment to explore and discover the world around them developing fundamental movement and problem solving skills.

Class consists of 10 minutes of group time, 30 minutes of open (semi-structured free time) and 5 minutes of group time at the end of class. Wear non-baggy athletic clothes.
