The sport of padel is incredibly popular, and its popularity is only growing. There are several reasons for this surge in popularity. One of the key reasons is that almost anyone who picks up a padel racket and steps onto the court can immediately start hitting the ball over the net. You don’t have to be a padel expert who has spent hours in training. The sport is accessible to people of all skill levels and ages, but this accessibility can also be a pitfall. Many people begin playing without taking padel lessons first. While playing padel without formal training can be a great experience, we firmly believe that you can derive even more enjoyment from the sport after taking padel lessons. That’s why we dedicate this blog to the many benefits of padel lessons and why we recommend them to everyone.
As mentioned earlier, many people with no prior padel experience book a court and start playing, and most of them do reasonably well. Consequently, they might think that padel lessons are unnecessary. While this is a understandable choice, we are convinced that you can enjoy the sport of padel even more after completing a series of lessons. Without lessons, you’re likely to develop a padel technique that might not be the most effective. Once you’ve ingrained a certain technique, it can be challenging to unlearn it. So, it’s better to start off on the right foot by learning the correct technique from a padel expert.
Furthermore, it’s important to understand that padel lessons offer more than just technique. Padel is not as straightforward as tennis, where the objective is simply to hit the ball over the net. In padel, you have to contend with glass walls and fences that can be used strategically. Most players who start padel without lessons have no idea how to effectively utilize these elements. Many barely use the glass walls and fail to grasp their value in winning a padel match. In addition to technique, padel training also teaches you the ins and outs of important padel tactics.
Because learning a technique is easier than unlearning one, we recommend starting your padel journey with lessons. This doesn’t mean it’s too late if you’re already an advanced padel player without any lessons under your belt. At The Padellers, we offer lessons for every skill level, whether you’re a beginner or an advanced player. Beginners will learn the fundamental techniques and when to apply certain techniques and padel shots. You’ll also gain insight into basic padel tactics, such as cleverly using the glass walls and fences.
If you’re in a group for advanced padel players, you’ll naturally learn more advanced padel shots and tactics. Have you ever heard of the Vibora? Or the Chiquita and Bandeja? These are all essential padel shots that can elevate your padel skills to a higher level.
In addition to the technical and tactical advantages, taking padel lessons also offers social benefits. At The Padellers, you can sign up with a group of friends for group padel training. However, we understand that you might not have many friends who are padel enthusiasts or that they simply don’t have the time for lessons. The Padellers also offer the option to sign up as an individual for group lessons. You’ll be placed in a group with enthusiastic padel players of the same skill level.
Aside from the convenience of being able to join group lessons, it’s also a fantastic way to meet new people and expand your padel circle. You might find padel players in your class to play with outside of lessons. Or perhaps you’ll find the perfect padel partner for padel competitions or tournaments.
Taking padel training also offers physical benefits. Despite not always feeling like it, padel is a physically intensive sport. Did you know that playing padel for an hour can burn an average of 588 calories? To put it in perspective, you burn about 493 calories with tennis. So, you could say that playing padel is the most enjoyable form of cardio. Therefore, padel training is a great way to ensure you get your cardio exercise. Lessons are less likely to be skipped than casual games, and they are also more intensive. By taking padel lessons, you not only work on your padel skills but also your summer body!
Discover everything about padel lessons on The Padellers’ website and sign up quickly and easily! Registration is possible for private or duo lessons and group lessons, where you’ll be grouped with players of your skill level. If you’re curious but not ready to commit to a series of lessons just yet, you can sign up for a trial padel lesson to see if it’s right for you. We also offer kids’ lessons for children aged 5 to 15. Experience padel at a new level with tips from experts!
