Life Long Sport: Tennis
In a recent study, tennis tops the list of sports scientifically proven to increase life expectancy (by nearly ten years). By combining foundational training principles with the lifelong benefits of tennis, we have experienced a holistic approach to fitness and well-being. Embracing both elements has improved our physical and mental health, and enhanced our performance on the court. Tennis is a sport that demands strategic thinking, quick decision-making, and mental focus. Engaging the mind in this way contributes to enhanced cognitive function and brain health.
