Motivational Tennis
Just spin it
Motivational Tennis was created for the sole purpose of developing A distinct tennis generation unlike any other. The ideas of Motivational Tennis are based on values and truths found both on and off the court which deal with both physics and common human habits. The program provides students of all ages with an achievement oriented education that emphasizes self awareness and discipline. The ultimate goal for all students is to realize and understand their capabilities to reach their maximum potential.
Motivational Tennis is a 501 (c) (3) non profit organization, that works in both Texas and Oklahoma that believes wealth does not equal potential or excellence. No matter what your background or financial situation everyone deserves a change to play, reach their goals and their full potential. All families want to the the best by their children, but many struggle to afford any extra curricular activity.
Motivational Tennis strives to make tennis not only affordable and achievable for everyone in the greater Houston area.
our goals are to help supplement lessons for low income families and relieve the pressure and financial burden that comes along with tennis, We have discounted prices for our great Military service men and women and first responders. Our military and first responders have served and helped us and we are honored to help them along their tennis journey. One of our main goals is to work with and provide completely free lessons and classes to foster children and foster families. With help from sponsors we believe we can make every child's dream of tennis a reality. One of the most important aspects in a child life is consistency and stability. That is a very tough thing to accomplish in life, especially for a foster child, sports is just one way that we can bring happiness , joy and consistency to the lives of foster children. Tennis gives children an opportunity for goals, achievement, and scholarships that they might not otherwise have.
