Today's side deal gives rookie tennis players a chance to hone their skills against an opponent that's neither a wall nor Wii. For $50, you’ll get five weeks of group tennis classes, plus full club access for the duration of the classes at Five Seasons Family Sports Club (a $100 value). Your Groupon is good for the club's Northbrook and Burr Ridge locations. Your five weeks begin after your first class and run consecutively.
This five-week course is a condensed version of Five Seasons' 10-week ACE Program. You'll get all the perks of the program without the commitment. A certified tennis pro will teach you and your fellow beginners the essentials of stroke technique, serving, and playing the game competitively. And you'll get to have fun practicing what you learn against opponents who won't laugh if you whiff the occasional serve. Classes typically take place weekday mornings and weekend mornings and afternoons; more classes will be added based on demand (call the club for more information).
During those five weeks, you'll also enjoy full access to the rest of Five Seasons, which includes an indoor pool, indoor track, indoor basketball, more than 100 cardio and strength machines, and studios to accommodate more than 50 group classes a week. You can also luxuriate in saunas, whirlpools, and a casual dining area with a bar. Five Seasons provides all the amenities you need to stay fit and entertained during Chicago's annual five seasons worth of winter.

Five Seasons' Northbrook location gets four stars from two Yelpers:
- They are a hybrid between a country club and a health club...The pool area is beautiful and a great place to spend a summer day. – Alan R., Yelp
Five Seasons Family Sports Club
The Five Seasons Family Sports Club houses tennis courts, a dining area, fitness facilities, swimming pools, and a full-service spa under one roof. Within air-conditioned indoor courts or on outdoor hard or clay courts, racquet slingers compete in friendly bouts to sharpen swings, refine backhands, and showcase grunting abilities. Members can also break a sweat in exercise areas speckled with modern cardio equipment and weights or cool off in a pool with diving wells and wading areas. Before meeting others for a postgame beverage at the lively café, clients can wander to the spa for a relaxing massage or partake in a sports workshop to gain a firm grasp on game mechanics.
