wanted: private tennis lessons without becoming member of a club...

I would love to take private tennis lessons in Geneva but do not want to sign up for a club membership right away. Does anyone know if this is possible anywhere?

I am a member at the International Club de Tennis and there is a pro there that offers lessons. I do not believe you need to be a member to take lessons, but I can double check for you tomorrow. I think that this will be the case at most clubs in Geneva as well. Good luck!

Hi Jason,


Thanks for your reply. I got in touch with Thomas (who i believe is one of the instructors at Intern. Club de Tennis) and he offered me private lessons. But actually I hoping for a more affordable rate! I would appreciate any other suggestions. Thanks!

Hi Elif, Jason,


I investigated a bit more and it seems indeed as if it is not necessary to be a club member to take tennis lessons (I checked for TC Drizia: http://www.tcdrizia.ch and for TC Champel: http://www.tc-geneve.ch/champel/tcge_champel.htm). However, tennis lessons are not cheap, you need to expect to pay 80CHF and 100 CHF per hour... welcome to Geneva...


Let me know if you have found anything more reasonable :)


Best,
Seb

Thanks for the heads up. I am not sure of your guys levels and what sort of expectations you have with your games, but there are some "public" courts in vessy i found for something like 7chf an hour. i havent dont much research on public courts as i get court time at the club. If you guys want to hit or see a posting for a tennis get together let me know because I am usually availble to hit whenever. How good are you guys? I know the US system and Swiss system so in the US I was a 4.5/5.0 and in Switzerland I am an R2. Cheers!

Hi guys, 


We're in touch with severat tennis teachers, trying to negotioate a tennis class deal on BuyClub. Still too early to tell if we'll be able to have something or not. If we get something, will update you here. 


If someone knows a good free-lance tennis teacher in Geneva, who might be up for running a BuyClub promo with us and getting 100 new clients real quick, thanks for letting me know.

The city of GVA offers tennis lessons, quite reasonably priced:


http://www.ville-geneve.ch/themes/sport/cours-sport/adultes/tennis/


Classes are Friday evenings, which may be inconvenient for weekend plans. I have not tried them myself (partly because of the w-e inconvenience!) but would love to hear from anyone who has had any experience with them.

You can train with my coach, Laura, at the university club in Champel. Her rates are very reasonable, then you pay an extra 10 CHF for the court if you're not a member.


She's very cool, and patient! She's a full time pro player and coach, and has improved my game massively.


I won't post her number publicly, but send me a message and I'll send her contact info.

hello jason,


i see this is quite an old posting, but i thought i'd give it a go.


i'm a 3.5/4.0 player in the US (R6/R7 if I understand the système du classement here in Switzerland), and am looking for hitting/playing partners as well - bois des frères or nearby would be ideal.


Thanks,


Joe

Hi Elfi,


I am not sure if you are still interested in playing tennis or looking for a coach.Where do you usually play. I am a member of the Tc Nyon and for CHF 20 we could rent a court over there. I train kids for a long time, biput no worriesyou can just take a free class and see if you like it. I could also come to a public court if you know any. We just moved 8 month ago here and right now I have a bit more time.

Try the tennis club at Pregny Chambesy, the professional does lessons there. I am unsure of his rates but by all accounts very good (but I cannot confirm from personal experience!)

Just wondering if you still have the contact details of Laura for tennis lessons.  That's if she is still giving them in or around Champel.


 


Thank you.
