The honest answer is that tennis lessons in Singapore range from about SGD 40 to SGD 130 per hour, and where you land depends almost entirely on how many people share the court with you. Below are our actual 2026 rates, what is and is not included, and how to bring the cost down without changing coach.

Private tennis lesson in Singapore with a certified coach

Tennis Lesson Prices in Singapore: 2026 Rates

  • Private lesson, 1-to-1: SGD 130 per hour.

  • Semi-private, 2 players: SGD 70 per player, per hour.

  • Group of 3: SGD 50 per player, per hour.

  • Group of 4: SGD 40 per player, per hour.

  • Ladies clinics: from SGD 40 per player.

  • Team sessions, 90 minutes: SGD 60 per player.

  • Kids Academy, Serangoon: SGD 590 for a 15-hour package, groups of 5 maximum — roughly SGD 39 per week.

  • Kids holiday camps: SGD 390 for a 10-hour package, two hours a day Monday to Friday.

The current rate card is always on the lessons and fees page.

What Is Not Included in the Price

Two things catch people out, so they are worth stating plainly.

  • Court booking fees are separate. If you have a condominium court, this is usually free to you as a resident. Public ActiveSG courts cost a few dollars an hour. Hotel courts run around SGD 20 to 30 an hour.

  • Cancellations inside 24 hours are charged in full. This is standard across coaching in Singapore — the coach has reserved the hour and usually the court.

The Cheapest Way to Take Lessons Is Not a Cheaper Coach

The most common mistake is shopping for a lower hourly rate. The bigger lever is the format.

A private hour costs SGD 130. The same coach, the same hour, with three friends on court, costs SGD 40 each. That is a 69 % reduction with no change in coaching quality — you simply get less individual correction per hour, which for a beginner matters far less than it sounds.

If you do not have friends to bring, ask to be placed in an existing group at your level. We match players who enquire individually.

Is a Cheap Tennis Lesson Worth It?

Rates below the range above usually mean one of three things: an uncertified coach, a very large group, or a coach travelling far outside their normal area and cutting the session short to make the next one. None of these is automatically disqualifying, but ask which it is.

What actually determines value for money is repetition per dollar. A well-run group of four where everyone hits constantly is better value than a private hour where half the time goes on explanation. Ask a prospective coach how much of the hour is spent hitting.

How Singapore Compares

Private coaching at SGD 130 an hour sits in a similar band to major cities in Europe and Australia once currency and court hire are accounted for. What is genuinely different in Singapore is court access: a large share of residents have a court in their condominium, which removes the venue cost that dominates the total elsewhere. Group lessons here are consequently good value by international standards.

Which Format Should You Pay For?

  • Choose private if: you have a specific technical goal, an irregular schedule, or you want to progress as fast as possible.

  • Choose a group of 3 or 4 if: you are a beginner, cost matters, or you want people to hit with between lessons. This is the right default for most adults.

  • Combine both if: you are serious. One private and one group session a week is the most efficient split we see.

We compared the two formats in detail in private vs group tennis lessons in Singapore.
