PEPPER PIKE Ohio TENNIS LESSONS - for beginner kids
If you live in the Pepper Pike Ohio area and you would like to get your child started with playing tennis, have them join a group tennis lesson. Kids can start as early as 4 years old and they learn best if part of a group of at most 4 kids. At the tender age of 4, the lesson should not be longer than half an hour. As kids get older, they can enjoy a 45' to 1hr group lesson. While private lessons are a great supplement to group instruction, they should not make up the majority of a child's tennis training. Kids have a way of naturally pushing each other to excel and no coach can duplicate in a private lesson the camaraderie, and sense of competitive exhilaration that at group of 8, 10 or 12 year olds can develop among each other during a group tennis lesson.

As kids get more serious about tennis, a second, or even third practice session can be added to their weekly practice routine and the time on the court can be increased to two hours a day. The next step on kid's developmental path is getting them involved in playing tournaments. During tournament play, kids discover their areas of strength as well as their weaknesses, and become more motivated and focused to improve their game.
