Ages 4-5. The main emphasis of this class is to build basic tennis skills and have fun! With the use of age appropriate equipment and up-beat, well trained instructors we will start to build your child's basic athletic skills and how to properly handle the racquet. In addition to further developing the child's fine motor skills like hand-eye coordination, we will emphasize balance and agility. This class will be the foundation for this life-long sport! Please bring your tennis racquet and a water bottle. If you are unsure which size racquet your child should have please watch this short video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cySR9PhA-lk The United States Tennis Association guidelines are that kids learn the game of tennis with age appropriate equipment and on age appropriate court dimensions. We also believe this is the correct way for kids to learn as well. Please watch the following video to understand why. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GM9BmDW41sQ
