About this listen
In Toddler Tennis, Coach Neal Feinberg teaches parents and instructors how to prime toddlers ages 1-3 to learn tennis. With fun and ultra-simple techniques like soap bubbles, bubble pack, balloons, and beach balls, toddlers will develop their motor skills, hand-eye coordination, balance, and reflexes.
As a leading innovator in the American tennis industry—Mr. Feinberg created the largest group adult tennis program in the nation—Coach Neal theorizes that America loses its top athletes to other sports permanently by age three. The USTA’s “Quick Start” Method starts at age three, but what about before that?
Feinberg believes when it comes to formative tennis experiences, toddlers cannot “fail”—only ill-equipped instructors can make mistakes. Simplifying the game until each part is easy is the key.
Toddler Tennis is a manual on how to immerse toddlers in so much fun that they don’t even realize they’ve learned tennis—until after they’ve fallen in love with the sport.
