Winter tennis lessons: register online
Registration for the winter season is open. The season starts in the week of 21 September on the indoor courts of NTC Amstelveen and consists of 20 lesson weeks (21 September to 1 April). The lesson guide helps you choose between Start, Core, Plus and Perform. After registration we manually place players based on age, level and availability. You do not pay immediately; after placement you receive confirmation and an invoice.
- Start — an accessible way to begin.
- Core — a structured base with one main programme.
- Plus — more rhythm and progress with at least two components.
- Perform — for all ages and levels with clear progress goals: at least 2 group lessons + 1 private/duo as an accelerator. Not only for top-level players; not the same as Academy.

What Our Players Say
Read experiences from players and parents who train at 359.tennis.
Our whole family plays at 359. The kids train on Saturday morning, and my wife and I joined the adult group. It's become our shared hobby in the Netherlands. The coaches speak English and the international atmosphere makes us feel right at home.
Chen Wei & Lin
Expat family — kids + adult program
We started at 359.tennis as complete beginners. We wanted to learn tennis and have a regular weekly family activity. Now we take family group lessons together, and our daughter also trains in her own group. The best part is that it's not just a fun sport, but it truly strengthens our family bond.
Familie Nakamura
Familiegroepsles — samen als gezin tennissen
I tried three different tennis schools around Amsterdam before finding 359. The difference is night and day — structured lessons with a clear progression plan, not just hitting balls back and forth. My game has improved more in six months here than in two years elsewhere.
