Please check our class schedule for all your class options Ready for fun and friends? Then this is the place! Our preschool classes are for children 18 months to 5 years old, and are built on a foundation of fun and safety. These classes are held in our dedicated “Junior Gym” which features sized down equipment to best accommodate these pint-sized dynamos! Proper skill progression is very important in these classes asit sets the groundwork for future levels. These classes not only promote social development like taking turns, listening, sharing, and patience, but also incorporate fitness, fine and gross motor skills, coordination, and body awareness. Our lessons include parachutes, hoops, balls, trampolines, foam pits, and climbing apparatus, and we introduce all the Olympic equipment. Kids love the fun and parents love the learning! Parent Participation: Children 18 months to 3 years 45 minutes long, once per week One teacher per 8 children Adult attendance required Not just a “Mommy and Me” class! Your child can bring mom, dad, or even a grandparent into the gym for lots of fun and fitness. Having the young child be with a family member allows them the opportunity to grow comfortable in a group setting and at their own pace. Safety is very important so each class is structured with planned activities. This is a wonderful way for the parent/family member and child to share, bond, and communicate in a fun and energetic setting! Preschool 3-5 years old: Children who are 3-5 years 1 hour long, once per week One teacher per 10 children, co-ed Ready to run, jump, swing, and bounce? Well get these monkeys moving!! These classes are for the child who is ready to come into the gym and follow instructions without parental assistance. We use the same equipment as the previous (but not required) Parent Participation class, and we add fun games and races. This class is structured and offers tons of fun! Advanced Preschool 3-5 years old: Children who are 3-5 years 1 hour long, once per week One teacher per 10 children, co-ed These kids are ready to move and learn! A little more emphasis is placed on gymnastics fundamentals, balancing, agility, and spatial awareness. We continue to incorporate games, races, trampoline, pits, and the various Olympic apparatus. Our lessons have plenty of fun activities built in while still challenging children to safely try new skills and activities. We encourage kids to keep trying and give it their best! School Age Developmental Program Lets tumble and twist!! Kids this age want fun and challenging lessons to prove to themselves that they can take on anything! All of these classes are gender specific and divided by age and ability, with a maximum of 10 kids per teacher. With these groups, coaches can now begin to increase the emphasis on flexibility, balance, strength, and coordination. As children progress into these classes, we start refining and honing gymnastics and fitness skills, including increased use of the Olympic apparatus. New and returning students are all welcome to our classes, and our coaches will assess each child to verify correct class placement. We teach and review skills to make sure our gymnasts have learned the correct form and technique so they can safely progress to more advanced skills. These classes also add to our foundation of social and emotional development for these children by reminding them to take turns, listen, and be kind. We also recognize the diverse abilities in our classes and remind our students to do their personal best each time. We, as coaches, give them the tools to feel great about themselves and their abilities. A bit of a challenge goes a long way! Developmental classes Children ages 5-15 years old: 1 hour long, once per week one teacher per 10 children, gender specific Whether your child is brand new to gymnastics or has been coming for years, we will make sure they have a blast! Assessing each childs ability will ensure that the coaches can challenge each one individually yet keep the whole class on the same lesson plan. These classes can have a range of abilities and we want to make sure each child is learning and progressing at their own pace. Also, since our classes are divided by gender, the boys classes can now work almost exclusively on the mens training events: rings, parallel bars, high bar, pommel horse, vault, and floor.
