New York State will begin a phased in reopening of low risk outdoor activities this week, which includes tennis.

We are thrilled to welcome Total Tennis guests back to our outdoor courts. We will open for private and semi-private lessons on Saturday May 16, 2020. Group lessons for 3 or 4 will be available for a family living in the same household who have been sheltering-in-place together.

Lessons must be booked in advance in blocks of: 1 hour, 1½ hours, 2 hours, 2 ½ hours, 3 hours

Lesson Prices:

• Private lesson $75/hour
• Semi-Private lesson $100/hour
• Group lesson for 3 or 4 $125/hour

Guests can rent one of our 7 Plexipaved or 2 Synthetic Clay courts for $30/hour. You must bring your own tennis balls.

Our top priority is to maintain a playing environment that is safe for guests and staff.

In crafting a plan to offer lessons, we are following Phase 1 guidelines from the CDC, the State of New York, The United States Tennis Association and a consortium of Tennis Directors 

We ask that you please do your part in keeping Total Tennis safe for all guests. Based on guidance from the organizations above, the following protocols will be strictly enforced:

1. Do not come to Total Tennis if you are ill or have had contact with potentially infected people.
2. A mask or face scarf must be worm when not on the court
3. Except for family groups, 6 foot social distancing must be kept at all times, even on the court
4. Sanitize your hands before entering the court 
5. If you want to work on your serve or play games you must bring a glove to wear on your non playing hand.
6. All belongings except your tennis racket must be left outside the tennis court.
7. Bring your own water, electrolyte drink, towel, hat and sunscreen
8. Your Pro will greet you at the court and explain the safety protocols for the lesson.
9. The lesson itself will be very normal. Your Pro will feed all balls, rally with you, provide instruction and a great workout.
10. Only Pros will pick up the balls during and after the lesson.
11. Restrooms will be available for use in the tennis building.
12. No other services or buildings will be available.

Please call our office at 800.221.6496 for more information or to make a lesson reservation and credit card payment.

With guidance from New York State Governor Cuomo, we expect to open our full program of tennis instruction, lodging and meals this summer.

We look forward to seeing you back on the courts.
