Creating a Tennis Legacy at Jade Nosara: Passion for Play and Purpose
Tennis is more than a game—it’s a way of life that fosters community, wellness, and joy for all ages. Co founding Jade Nosara Tennis with Doug Ingerson has been a heartfelt passion project. We envision not only creating an unforgettable tennis experience for our guests but also sharing the love of tennis with the children of Nosara. With every swing of the racket, we hope to inspire a lifelong connection to the sport that celebrates the unique “Blue Zone” benefits of Costa Rica’s Nicoya Peninsula.
Our first date was on the red clay courts in Guiones in 2017.
Inspiring the Next Generation
Nosara is not only blessed with natural beauty but also a vibrant local community. At Jade Nosara, we’re committed to giving back to this community by offering tennis lessons to local children, regardless of their background or experience. By teaching them the fundamentals of tennis, Doug and I aim to introduce the sport as a fun, active, and social activity that can benefit them throughout their lives.
Our junior program will include everything from basic skills development and drills to fun, friendly matches, all taught in a supportive, community-focused environment. We hope these lessons encourage a sense of self-confidence, teamwork, and discipline in each child—a gift that goes beyond the tennis court.

With a range of wellness offerings—including yoga, surf, and the holistic benefits of the Blue Zone lifestyle—guests can immerse themselves in a rejuvenating escape that promotes both physical and mental well-being. After a day on the court, unwind with yoga, indulge in locally-inspired meals from our chef, or venture to the beach for a sunset surf session. Our team has been working hard to revive the clay.
Enhancing Longevity and Wellness Through Tennis
Playing tennis regularly has countless health benefits, from improving cardiovascular fitness and boosting mental focus to strengthening bones and muscles. It’s not just about playing the sport but enhancing longevity through the joyful movement and positive community it fosters. In Nosara, a globally recognized Blue Zone where residents often live long, healthy lives, tennis becomes a natural extension of the wellness principles that guide our lifestyle.
