Aruba Racket Sport Training with Elite Athlete

Train with a professional athlete across Aruba's best racket sport courts

A private racket sport class in Aruba pairs you with Martine van Woudenberg, an ITF World Tour beach tennis athlete and certified coach, for personal training in tennis, padel, beach tennis or pickleball. You choose one to four sports across different island locations, including Eagle Beach, with hotel pickup and a drink included. One to five hours depending on how many sports you pick.

The experience

Martine picks you up from your hotel in a local Jimny and drives you to the first court in about 15 minutes. You train for at least 45 to 60 minutes on each sport you choose, with tips on technique and performance tailored to your level. Between courts you get a drink and a chance to ask about what it takes to train as a professional athlete. The rackets and balls are provided.

You can build the day around a single sport (tennis, pickleball, padel or beach tennis), or mix multiple ones. Tennis and pickleball share the same location, so you can stack those back-to-back. Beach tennis happens at Eagle Beach, one of the world's top ten beaches. Martine adjusts the schedule based on traffic and your preferences, so the experience stays flexible even as you move between sites.

The whole package includes the pickup, the drop-off at your hotel, and the instruction. What changes is the number of sports and the total time on the island: one sport takes about an hour and a half door-to-door, while trying all four racket sports stretches to five hours. You set the pace and the focus when you book.

What’s included

• Rackets and balls for every sport you choose.
• hotel pickup and drop-off in a local Jimny.
• personal coaching from a certified ITF World Tour beach tennis athlete.
• a drink between courts.

What racket sports can I choose from on this experience?

You can pick from tennis, pickleball, padel or beach tennis, or combine any of them. Tennis and pickleball are at the same location, so you can play both in one session.

Each sport gets at least 45 to 60 minutes of court time, depending on traffic and pickup times. A single sport takes about an hour on court within a 1.5-hour total experience. The Racket Mania option with all four sports runs five hours total and spreads the court time across the island's different locations.
