An Exclusive Tennis Retreat at Hôtel Royal, Evian Resort
Three days. Two nights. One rare opportunity to step inside the mindset of elite tennis.
Guests are invited to experience an exclusive immersive tennis retreat from 11th to 13th September alongside French tennis legend Guy Forget and renowned coach Loïc Courteau,
created in collaboration with LUX Tennis. More than a tennis clinic, “Au-Delà du Court” is a complete immersion into the culture, rhythm, and philosophy of high-level performance. Designed for intermediate to advanced players, the experience combines technical coaching, tactical training, mental preparation, recovery rituals, filmed-session analysis, and intimate conversations with two figures who have shaped professional tennis from inside the game.
Former World No. 4, Davis Cup captain, and former director of Roland-Garros and the Rolex Paris Masters, Guy Forget brings a unique perspective that goes far beyond the court.
Throughout the weekend, participants discover not only how champions play, but how they think, prepare, recover, compete, and lead under pressure.
Hosted within the exceptional setting of Hôtel Royal, Evian Resort, and developed together with LUX Tennis, the program blends world-class tennis with luxury hospitality, wellness,
gastronomy, and personalized guidance in an intimate small-group format.
Price: 6400 €
Early bird rate until 18 July : 5900 €
Designed for intermediate to advanced tennis players seeking more than traditional coaching, this immersive retreat offers a rare combination of elite-level transmission, luxury
hospitality, and meaningful human connection.
