Preschool Gymnastics
Join us for our weekly themed classes for children ages 18 months to 5 years called Gym Kids. Gym kids classes are 45 minutes in duration. Our preschool classes are fun! Each class begins with a warm-up emphasizing social skills, self-esteem, body positions, and gymnastics terminology. Beginner in September 2022, we have created and are implementing a new fun and creative curriculum for our pre-school aged students. Our classes are skill oriented with red level skills being introduced to preschool children at an appropriate developmental level. Staffing ratio for preschool classes beginning at age 3 is 1:6. The staffing ratio for toddler classes with parents is 1:7 as these classes.
Boys Events Classes
All Beginner Classes are Designated as Co-Ed; however, there are several classes designated as Boys only in which only the 6 Men's Olympic Events are instructed. However, girls are also welcome to register for these classes. Women's events such as Balance Beam are not included in this class. Gymnastics instruction in these classes includes skills on the six Olympic events for men: floor, pommel horse, rings, vault, parallel bars, and high bar in a class style structured just for the needs of energetic boys! Students also work on strength, fitness, and coordination that will help in every other sport.
