Reis Tennis Center and Wellness Program Collaborations

Reis Tennis Center and the Wellness Program announce WELLNESS PROGRAM ADULT TENNIS LESSONS
Affordable, Rewarding, and Fun!

  • You’ll learn the best methods to acquire all the strokes and basic strategies and improve with fun movement drills and games at Cornell’s indoor tennis facility.

  • Bring a racket and join the fun. If you don’t have a racket, try a few at the Reis Tennis Center before you purchase your own at a sporting goods store.

  • All lessons are taught by Marty Johnson, Cornell varsity assistant coach and Director of the Reis Tennis Center. Visit the tennis center web site for profile.

  • We guarantee that you will learn to play tennis and that you’ll have a ball doing it!

  • A convenient location for East Hill Plaza employees looking for an early or lunchtime workout.

  • Neither Reis Tennis Center nor Wellness Program membership is required to register for these classes. However, as part of the new collaboration, Wellness Program members do qualify for a discounted annual Reis Tennis Center membership if you’d like to continue to play after your class is over. When signing up online for an annual membership, Wellness Program members receive $25 off an Individual or Family membership plus $15 off starter credit towards your first on-line court booking.
