The JKCP Tennis Program features:

 

Learn Tennis the JKCP Way

At the Julian Krinsky School of Tennis, we provide the training and preparation needed to improve each player’s tennis game through specialized drills, rigorous practice schedules, and instruction from top-of-the-line tennis professionals.  We work on developing each player into a more complete, consistent, and well-rounded competitor to guarantee that everyone at our teenage and youth tennis camps improve their game. Our pros will help you set goals, develop your footwork and execute proper form on all your strokes.  We make sure that each player is challenged by some of the best players in their peer group to ensure everyone develops into the best tennis player they can be. 

Professional Coaching Staff

Our teaching professionals at the summer tennis academy are affiliated with USPTA, USPTR, ITF and trained at the Julian Krinsky School of Tennis. There is a low student to staff ratio, which means each player will get individualized attention and instruction.  Our pros come from around the world and are some of the best.  They have played in inter-national tournaments, and they know what it takes to make it in tennis.  They work with each student, no matter what their skill set or goals, to ensure that the level of play is intense and rigorous so each player gets the most out of every week.

Your game, your way

With five hours of tennis each day, you are going to love seeing improvements in your game. We analyze each player’s game individually and develop your strengths and potential. You’ll be placed in small groups based on skill level so you can learn with other players similar to your skill level. With video analysis, it’s all tailored to you.

Get your game on

Match play is key to developing your tennis skills. Our program is built on instructional singles and doubles match play every day. Plus, you can test your new skills at our weekly Davis Cup tournament. Play for points, play for pride, as you compete in a team format against other JKCP players.

It all started with tennis

Once a pro player at Wimbledon and the French Open, Julian Krinsky now brings his passion for tennis to his summer camps and year-round training tennis academy. Our players and international tennis professionals come to JKCP for serious tennis skill improvement. Plus, Julian is on campus often so you can learn from him first-hand!

High Performance Training Program – Excel in competitive play

For students focused on tennis tournaments and rankings, our high intensity program trains you physically, tactically and mentally for the game’s most challenging moments. Concentration, motivation, cross-training, explosive speed, fueling your body — it’s taught here. Give yourself the JKCP advantage!

"Gave her the Skill"

"[My daughter’s] participation in Krinsky gave her the skill, confidence and tenacity to try out for her school's tennis team this fall.  It was a true pleasure meeting you and your wonderful staff.” Laurie S., parent
