Empowering and supporting children with Tourette syndrome through the positive impact of tennis
Tennis for Tourette’s
Our mission is to empower and support children with Tourette syndrome through the positive impact of tennis. We aspire to enhance the quality of life, reduce stigma, and foster a supportive tennis environment for children impacted by Tourette’s in our community.
Meet The Instructors & Founders
Meet our founders and instructors, Dalia, Nadia, and Shiv Khera. Driven by their passion for tennis and a desire to support their community, the Khera siblings embarked on a journey to raise funds and awareness while creating a welcoming environment for children with Tourette’s to express their enthusiasm for the sport.
All three siblings have been playing tennis for over a decade, viewing the tennis court as a source of joy and a welcome escape from school. The sport has instilled in them numerous values, particularly the significance of inclusivity, hard work, passion, and dedication. Tennis has gifted them countless memories and friendships, remaining an integral part of their lives.
Tennis can be an excellent sport for individuals with Tourette syndrome. Using tennis to help children with Tourette syndrome involves leveraging the physical, mental, and social benefits of the sport enhance their overall well-being.
