“I have invested significantly to ensure I have a quality Cardio Tennis program. Every participant is provided with a heart rate monitor for safety and to measure calories burnt. I have a quality sound system and the right music and the right beats per minute to ensure participants want to move. I believe Cardio Tennis is a quality program and think that it is really important to be rolled out with a strong emphasis on quality.”
Jason Lindeman, Tennis Australia High Performance Coach, St John’s Tennis Club and Melbourne Girls’ Grammar, Victoria. Tennis Australia Pilot Cardio Tennis Coach.
“The introduction of the Cardio Tennis program by our club coach has been a great success. The workouts have included existing members as well as attracting new players to the club. Everyone seems to be having a lot of fun, improving their tennis and getting a workout at the same time.”
Darren Wunderer, President Henley South Tennis Club, South Australia.
“I can see it being a huge success in my business. We run four Cardio Tennis workouts a week. I love it so much that I attend the 6.15am session that one of my coaches runs.”
Helen Rice, Tennis Australia Club Professional Coach, Denman and Netherby Tennis Club, South Australia. Tennis Australia Pilot Cardio Tennis Coach.
“Cardio Tennis has been well received by current and prospective members. A very exciting program that definitely has longevity.”

“I ran a class recently that had (former AFL footballer) Matthew Lloyd in it. But within that, I also had regular mums … Matt’s fitness level was a lot higher, so while they were taking drinks breaks, I had him doing court sprints because he just wanted more and more. I had to make sure that throughout the session I was always conscious of what he was doing, and including more cardio for him than I was for the rest.”
Belinda Colaneri, Tennis Australia Professional Development and Coach Education Coordinator, High Performance Qualified coach.
