In order to make your Tennis Lesson experience more Fun and Enjoyable, we wanted to clarify some general polices that pertain to the program.
Make-Up Policy: If our lessons are canceled due to any reason (such as bad weather or Facility problems), KITS will Make-Up the missed lesson by extending the Session until all scheduled lessons are held. This is our Professional commitment to you!
If you miss a lesson for what ever reason, and you want to make it up in another class, It is your responsibility to arrange a make-Up directly with the coach whose class you may want to enter. *Be Advised ,KITS does not Guaranty that a make up space will be available for you...However if a space is availabe we are happy to provide this service ....The Procedure is, letting the coach know of your desire a week prior to the scheduled class...Each School may be a little different (For example the Mitsui Compound School is the prior Tuesday of the week of your desired Class) and the coach will notify you if he has a space.
Please keep in mind that make-ups cannot be missed or cancelled (If you sign up ,you will be charge for a lesson).
Also you cannot scheduled a make-Up for another person or for a group.
Once a 10 week session is completed, the opportunity for Make-up has finished (No lessons will be carried over to a new session).
It's been our Privilege to Serve the International Community in Tokyo for over 28 years. Your enjoyment of our service is the reason we have excelled , and we will strive to continue providing the Best Professionsl Tennis lessons program for you in the Future!

Cardio Tennis is a new way of thinking about tennis training, developed in part by the USPTA.

This innovative type of aerobic training focuses more on activity heavy drills, giving players of all levels a high energy workout. Much like a regular workout, Cardio Tennis includes a warm-up, cardio workout, and a cool down.

It's a great way to stay in shape and burn calories while improving your skill at the same time!

Playing tennis is a great way to burn calories and stay in shape. With summer just around the corner, check out one of the new programs developed by the USPTA called Cardio Tennis which focuses more on the physical fitness side of training. Playing tennis on a regular basis can help maintain or improve balance, mobility, agility, strength and fitness.

Tennis is always a good way to get away from your busy schedule in life. People who live a more well-balanced life between work and play are mentally happy and healthy.

Also don't forget the social aspect. Especially if you've just moved to Tokyo, tennis offers an excellent chance to meet new people or to keep up with your old friends. A lot of our adult lessons are more relaxed and give people the opportunity to mingle.
