Gymnastic Programs


Here are our gymnastic class descriptions which provide an understanding of our age separation and allow parents to choose which program better suits you and your child.

Teeny Flippers
(AGES 6 Months - 12 Months) | 30 MIN. CLASS
This program is designed to let parents and their children bond in a physical activity. In a safe environment, they will socially develop in a positive, happy atmosphere. These Teeny flippers will bounce, jump, crawl, roll balls with mommy or daddy to help promote motor skill development. Music is used, balance skills are taught, body awareness- all small successes to enhance self esteem!
Tiny Flippers
(AGES 12 - 18 Months, 18 - 24 Months, 24 - 36 Months) | 40 MIN. CLASS
The next level also includes mom and dad, or both. These children are ready to move, jump, swing, reach out a little more toward adventure with the gymnastic equipment. This program is further broken down into age groups to fine tune the skills geared toward age appropriate development. The trampoline is introduced, the pit, climbing ladder
Mini flippers
(AGES 3 - 4YRS.) | 45 MIN. CLASS
Here is the start of the gymnastic program without parents in the gym. We do have themes however to bring parents in the gym throughout the year, so they can still have fun- because I know the parents miss being in the gym after being in for the past few years. Your child will learn structure in a positive way, following directions- because they want to, learning and mastering skills: forward roll, back roll, cartwheel over the mats, jumping two feet on the tramp, lots of obstacle course fun, along with bars, beam, vault, pit, ropes FUN, FUN FUN!
Kinder Flippers
(AGES 4 - 5YRS.) | 55 MIN. CLASS
Now we are ready for a challenge in this wonderful sport. We know how to follow directions, pay attention, now we are ready to climb to the top of the rope, learn a bridge kickover and perhaps make it to the floor, try pullovers on the bars, and master a cartwheel on the floor. So much Fun packed into a challenging sport of gymnastics.
Mini-Kinder Flippers
(AGES 3 - 6YRS.) | 50 MIN. CLASS
A combination class with both Mini and Kinder Flippers for convenience. This class was specifically designed for parents who have 3 to 5 year olds that would usually take different classes. Now each child can get their gymnastic excitement and mom or dad only has to make one trip to the gym. Children are divided according to age and ability to enhance their skill development.
Panthers
(AGES 4 - 6 YRS.) | 55 MIN. CLASS
This is a class for full day Kindergarten or those two children in different age groups that want to be together. We start off with a safety warm up(circle warm up) and right into rotations in the gym. Rotations include girl's equipment(bars, beam, floor, vault, tramp) and boys equipment(high bar, parallel bars, pommel horse, vault, floor, tramp). The time is convenient for parents and children after school. Some children don't want the preschool equipment of the ladders and slides, they want the real equipment- if that is so, then this is the program for you!
Cougars
(AGES 5 - 8 YRS.) | 60 MIN. CLASS
Another after school program offered for those children who have full day Kindergarten and older brothers and sisters that for convenience would like to be in the same class time. Warm up is performed, girl's and boys are separated into their own gymnastics equipment. Rotations are performed and skills as well as safety are exercised. Convenience and a positive learning environment is what this class is known for.
Tigers
(AGES 6 -12YRS.) | 60 MIN. CLASS
The Tigers are the ones that are the king of the jungle. This class stresses learning new skills, refining old skills and having fun while being challenged! When you are a tiny flipper, you keep telling your mom, I can't wait to be a Tiger! Handstands are taught - not just to learn, but to hold your balance. The bars become a routine- no matter how small the routine or how large the skill, everyone can gain success in gymnastics!
Tramp and Tumbling
(AGES 9 - 14YRS.) | 60 MIN. CLASS
Tramp and tumbling is perfect for the children who love jumping on the tramp verses other gymnastic equipment. Skills development may be a back handspring or flip on the tramp. Safety is our number one priority and is stressed when teaching these skills.
