Tiny Tennis Skills will see 2-3 year olds, and a parent or carer, rotate through a series of fun games and activities based around the core skills of tennis, and all to the back-beat of some favourite tunes.
Perform with Power head coach Mitch Power said while the program is based around developing skills, the priority is getting young kids active and healthy in a social environment.

"It is a mixture of tennis, hand eye coordination, hitting, throwing, catching, as well as some dancing and a lot fun," he said.
"The younger we can put good habits in place through childhood, the more likely they are to take it into adulthood.
"It is also a great opportunity for parents to interact and get involved with their kids sport rather than just dropping them off - they have to get the joggers on to and be involved."
While health and fitness are core aspects of the program, there is also a large social aspect for both kids and parents.
"The kids will also learn how to share, take turns and interact with each other," Mr Power said.
"And it is also a great opportunity for parents to meet other parents, and have a bit of a break from the normal routine."
Perform with Power Tennis Academy are hosting a free Come and Try Day at the West Tamworth Tennis Club at 9.45am on Thursday June 27, before the weekly program officially kicks off at the beginning of term 3.
