Two Ways to Train
Semester Program or Drop-In Clinics
Both are led by our expert coaches and deliver the same standard of instruction, energy, and community. They serve different goals: commit to a semester for a structured path forward, or drop in for that same coaching with full flexibility.
Semester Program
A guided path you commit to.
- Outlined curriculum that builds week over week
- Consistent group, so progress is tracked
- Placed by level for the right challenge
- Make-up tokens on 8- and 12-week semesters
- Reserved spot, your place is held all session
Drop-In Clinics
The same expert coaching, on your schedule.
- Led by expert coaches who give real tips and help you improve
- Book one class at a time, no commitment
- Organized by level, so you play with similar players
- High-energy and social, great for any week
- À la carte pricing, no membership needed
Many players do both: a semester to keep improving, plus a drop-in clinic whenever they want extra court time.

Rain Cancellation Credit
If rain cancels a class in the first 14 minutes you get a make-up session instead of credit. Otherwise, credit is returned as a dollar amount based on the clinic price and the minutes completed before cancellation, and applies toward future bookings.
