LifeTime Tennis is excited to announce our partnership with the team at Ignite Physical Performance and welcome them aboard. LifeTime continue's to provide Australia's leading tennis programs for players who are serious about their tennis and is confident this will strengthen the programs.
As we have seen over the past 20 years tennis players ARE athletes and the athletic development of players is just as important as the tennis skills they acquire on court.
We believe our partnership with Lindsay, Cody and the team is a step in the right direction. Read on for more about the team.

SITES
MT GRAVATT – Dittmer Park, Cnr Logan & Klumpp Roads, Mt Gravatt
Located within the Mt Gravatt Australian Football Club, this gym overlooks the playing field giving a green and grassy view while you exercise. This provides the ability to work both indoors and outdoors within a session. With access to toilets and showers it is a perfect location before your commute in to the city. There are plenty of carparks so parking won’t be an issue. This facility will take semi-private group classes in the mornings and afternoons. During the day will be focussed more on one-on-one consultations and open gym for those wanting to complete their own programs.
SPRING HILL – 537 Boundary Street, Spring Hill (Located at Lindsay Trigar Physiotherapy)
Located a little over 1km from Brisbane’s busy CBD, the Spring Hill clinic is based in a multi-disciplinary sports injury management clinic. The clinic has all the necessary free and machine based weights, a large variety of cardiovascular equipment and a multitude of injury rehabilitation tools. This makes it perfect for clients ranging from those wanting injury rehabilitation or return to sport programs through to elite athletes looking to improve their athletic performance. The clinic is nicely air conditioned, has onsite showers and facilities to do onsite claims for DVA, Medicare, Private Health and NDIS.
OUR VISION
Through our partnership with Lifetime tennis we will endeavour to develop more athletic and resilient tennis players. We aim to provide a consistent, progressive and disciplined program based on best practice management. We value hard work, dedication and young athletes who are striving to become good people. Outside of our group programs run though Lifetime we will also provide private 1-on-1 or group training sessions at both our clinic locations or at Ambiwerra itself.
