What to Wear to Your First Tennis Lesson

What to Wear to Your First Tennis Lesson

Stepping onto the court for the first time is exciting, but also a little nerve-wracking. What you wear can make all the differenceβ€”not just in how you feel, but in how you play. This beginner's guide breaks down what to wear to your first tennis lesson, combining comfort, performance, and Juna's signature timeless style.

Start with a Classic Tennis Dress

A tennis dress is a stylish, all-in-one choice for beginners. Look for designs that offer built-in shorts (often called "shorties") for coverage and confidence during movement. Choose breathable fabrics that wick away moisture and stretch with your body. Juna's tennis dress collection balances femininity with functionality, making it ideal for your first match or lesson.

Why a Dress Works for Beginners

  • Easy to move in
  • No need to match separates
  • Classic and elegant silhouette

Mix and Match with Tennis Sets

If you prefer separates, a coordinated tennis set is another excellent option. Look for a breathable top paired with a high-waisted skirt that offers built-in support. Juna's tennis sets are made for movement, without compromising on refined aesthetics.

Key Features to Look For

  • Supportive yet soft waistband
  • Lightweight performance fabric
  • Understated, timeless details

Don’t Skip the Tennis Skirt

A white tennis skirt is a court classic for a reason. It pairs beautifully with any top and adds a touch of old-school charm to your look. Choose a style that includes inner shorts for comfort and practicality.
