Vida Tennis

Fantastic experience: Best tennis place for younger kids.

Fantastic experience: The Vida team are thorough and professional and take care at all stages of the junior development. The systems in place for communication mean that players and parents feel supported along their journey!

Fantastic experience: Vida's approach to developing quality people and providing pathways through tennis is exceptional. A high quality team of tennis professionals who truly care about outcomes for their community.

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Vida tennis in Mt. Waverley based on our experience over last 2 years with amazing coaches Ignacio, Angelo, Kane and George. My 12 year old started 2 years ago at Vida. Being a beginner, the focus was on technique which helped her develop her skills and quickly start participating in the tournaments. A year later, she started coaching with George Vogiatzis, who is an amazing human being and an excellent coach. George focuses on all aspects of tennis guiding the kids to be their best self on and off court. My daughter loves the fun learning environment he creates for the kids in private lessons and squads.Learning with George has helped improve her mindset and skill set, which is showing on and off the court. Structured planning introduced by George has helped her manage time for school work and also be accountable to her career goals. George understands and caters to individual strengths and improvements. His ability to focus on the learning process over results has helped with the mindset and improve the game. She is enjoying and thriving with Vida who is supporting her growth as a strong individual on and off the court.

Fantastic experience: My sons have been training with Vida for about 2 years at MCC Glen Iris. I would absolutely recommend Kane, Angelo and the wider Vida team for any tennis player - they are passionate about what they do, know their stuff and create a really fun and engaging atmosphere. Further to this the Vida team really support and nurture the kids development for tennis and beyond. Would definitely recommend!

Fantastic experience: More than happy to write a recommendation for Vida in Mt. Waverley. I have a 15 year daughter and 5 year old son both getting valuable, but different experiences from their tennis coaching. My 15 year old is an accomplished tournament player. She trains 4 nights a week, two advanced squads and two semi private lessons. She also does two days PT outside the club and plays competition on the weekends and holidays. In the last two months she's been training with George Vogiatzis and we've seen a great improvement in her performance. We sat down for a meeting with George on two occasions and worked out a training plan as well as short and longer term career goals. The lessons are fun and very well structured. The squads are age and ability appropriate and good friendships are formed. Progress is very pronounced. George has her journalling after each training session and match. Her motivation, passion and ambition have definitely gone next level. George has structured her training program with the aim of achieving a US college scholarship. On the current trajectory it feels like a plausible ambition. My 5 year old is an absolute beginner and he participates in a weekly red ball (hot shots) group with Angelo Giampaolo. It's a small group class with no more than 5 kids so he gets a lot of time on the ball and attention of the coach. The activities are fun and engaging for the very young children. He stays engaged throughout the lesson and we seeing good improvement in his basic skills and hand eye coordination. My son does the class together with another friend and it's a highlight of his weekly calendar.

Fantastic experience: My son and daughter both started training at Vida Boxhill with the head coach Joanne then we moved to Vida Mount Waverley due to Boxhill courts were not available during lockdowns and Joanne was on personal leave last year. My kids now have been training with the head coach Ignacio in Mt Waverley. I have to say both Joanne and Ignacio are great coaches, not only their tennis expertise but also professionalism, passion, enthusiasm in their tennis career. A part from Joanne, Ignacio, I find Kane, Angelo are awesome to work with as well. They are flexible, easy to communicate, friendly, open-minded. I have been to many tennis clubs with my kids during their competitions and hardly see any place with such a great bunch of awesome coaches like in Vida. Thank you guys for building such an excellent Tennis community.

Fantastic experience: ok

Fantastic experience: My son has been training with Ignacio and Vida team for quite some time. They have been great from a tennis professional, squad and private training. Their level of professionalism in dealing during the various lockdowns has been really good too. We cannot wait to get back onto the courts

Fantastic experience: The Vida team are genuinely passionate about tennis and the development of the individual players. They have a very caring and inclusive culture and their program creates a very supportive tennis community for the players. Their communication is also excellent and they go above and beyond to ensure make up lessons are completed. Keep up the great work team!

Fantastic experience: Kane as the Head Coach has been accessible, friendly & professional. The lessons are fun & technical enough for my son to have plenty to think about before the next one comes around. We've been with VIDA only a short time & feel very lucky to have found such a club & team like VIDA - keep up the great work! 100% recommended.
