We believe that racquet sports are more than just games—they are lifelong skills that build confidence, encourages resilience and fosters joy through movement and play. Our youth tennis lessons are designed to spark a love for the sport from the very first swing. Taught by passionate and experienced instructors, each session balances skill development with fun, ensuring kids stay engaged while learning the fundamentals of technique, strategy and sportsmanship.
Our programs are tailored for all skill levels, from beginners picking up a racquet for the first time to more advanced players looking to sharpen their game. We focus on creating a positive environment where kids are supported, encouraged and challenged in age-appropriate ways. Along the way, they'll learn more than forehands and serves—they'll learn teamwork, perseverance and how to handle both victory and defeat with grace.
Affordability is a core value of our youth programs. We believe every child should have access to quality instruction and the chance to fall in love with an active lifestyle. Our pricing is designed with families in mind, making it easy to fit top-tier tennis instruction into your schedule and budget.
And tennis isn't just for kids! We also offer adult tennis lessons for those who want to learn, improve, or simply enjoy the game at any stage of life. Whether your child is just starting out or your whole family is ready to rally, UVA Rec has a court waiting for you.
