Escape the unpredictable weather and city traffic at AVARI Tennis Studio, the Philippines' first indoor tennis simulation studio located on the 5th floor of The Podium. Founded by tennis enthusiasts and cousins Abby Frias Teotico and Anton Bernal, AVARI makes elite training accessible by removing the usual hurdles of court availability and scheduling conflicts.
Train in one of three glass-enclosed courts built with tournament-grade flooring. Advanced South Korean simulators track your ball speed, spin and shot placement to provide instant, data-driven feedback on every swing.
Seasoned athletes can engage in high-intensity practice, while beginners and kids can enjoy slower-paced modes or the interactive, target-hitting Arcade Mode. Two players can even train simultaneously on a single court.
Elevate your game with programs led by coaching director Roland Kraut, former Philippine Davis Cup coach and current DLSU UAAP Tennis head.
Don't have a racket? AVARI offers top-tier rentals, brand demo options and specialized training aids like the Saber racket and TopspinPro.
Whether you want to perfect your topspin, learn a new sport, or just enjoy an active hangout, AVARI brings a vibrant, weather-proof tennis community right to the heart of the city.
