It’s Never Too Late: Learning Tennis as an Adult
Think tennis is a young person’s sport? Think again.
I’ve coached adults who picked up a racket at 40, 50—even 65—and fell in love with the game. Whether you’re chasing a childhood dream or just want a fun way to stay active, adult tennis lessons are one of the best investments in your health, confidence, and social life.
Here’s what makes adult learning different—and better:
You’re more self-aware. Adults tend to listen better, ask questions, and process feedback more effectively.
It’s a great mental and physical workout. You’re improving your fitness, hand-eye coordination, and focus all at once.
Social benefit. Joining a class means building a community—something we all need more of these days.

Start slow, be patient with yourself, and don’t worry about looking silly. Tennis is one of the few sports you can start as an adult and continue for life.
At Low2High we tailor each lesson based on age, level and individual requirements
