Private Tennis Lessons for Juniors
A 1-on-1 private lesson gives your child a full hour of dedicated coaching to build solid technique, develop stroke consistency, and accelerate match confidence.
Formats & Levels
Private (1 Player): Individual attention tailored to your child’s level—from beginners learning basic coordination on red/orange balls to advanced juniors prepping for USTA tournaments.
Semi-Private (2 Players): Train alongside a friend or sibling of a similar level to split the court and cost.

Frequently asked questions
What age can a child start private lessons?
Young players can begin once they can hold a racquet and follow basic directions. Contact the front desk for guidance on your child’s readiness and the right starting point.
How do private lessons work with group programs?
Group clinics build match play and consistency with peers. Private lessons target the one skill your child needs most. Many juniors do both.
Private or semi-private for kids?
A private lesson is one child with a coach. A semi-private pairs two children of similar level with one coach, which many kids enjoy and which splits the cost.
How do I book?
Through your CourtReserve account in the lessons section, or by calling the front desk.
Does my child need their own racquet?
A properly sized racquet helps, and loaner racquets are available. The front desk can recommend the right size and ball for your child’s age.
Do you use red, orange, and green balls?
Yes. Younger and developing players use low-compression red, orange, and green balls that match their stage, then move to standard yellow balls as they progress.
Can two siblings share a lesson?
Yes. A semi-private lesson works well for two siblings at a similar level.
Are lessons available year round?
Yes. Indoor HarTru courts keep junior lessons running in every season.
