Philosophy
Focus Tennis Academy aims to have an environment where students strive to achieve in an atmosphere of fitness and fun. We have the desire to improve student-learning outcomes in tennis while influencing students’ attitudes and behaviours by demonstrating an understanding and appreciation of the importance of physical activity combined with a healthy lifestyle.
The coaches of Focus Tennis Academy believe tennis coaching is a profession that can influence students’ lives. We are able to witness students improve and grasp new concepts. Each challenge can bring a new reward for the student, parents and coach. The coaches of Focus Tennis Academy believe that they are positive role models who lead an active and healthy lifestyle that inspires students to learn.
