Malta is the ideal place to learn tennis. The climate is perfect, the venues are readily available and the clubs and schools are characteristically welcoming. Having a go at a new sport can be part of your holiday package or an impromptu decision taken in the heat of the holiday moment.
Maltese tennis clubs and schools offer a wide programme of activities for beginners and experienced tennis players alike. They offer a complete list of services which include group coaching, individual coaching, racquet stringing, changing of racquet grips, booking of tennis courts and fitness programmes. One-hour Group coaching sessions are available for all ages, all levels and any day of the week, while individual coaching can be arranged at a personal level with your coach.
One can also combine a tennis holiday with a Learn English course or vice-versa at very reasonable rates. Get-fit-for-tennis sessions are held at most tennis clubs and schools, and for the keener students there is also Cardio Tennis, a fun group activity featuring drills to give players of all abilities an ultimate high energy workout. Participants consistently elevate their heart rates to their aerobic training zone. In this way, one can burn more calories than by playing straight-forward singles or doubles tennis.
Some of the tennis training programmes in Malta are designed to offer a great opportunity for people who want to lose weight, achieve a healthy body and therefore a healthy mind, complete body conditioning and improved flexibility. Conducted by qualified fitness and exercise instructors, these programmes are yet another way of making the learning of tennis a happy and colourful experience.
To get started you might want to ask at your hotel who should be able to put you in touch with a tennis instructor. Alternatively contact the Malta Tennis Federation who can put you in touch with a qualified instructor. Their website is www.maltatennisfederation.com
