Class Descriptions

Several different classes are available depending on skill levels. We offer Beginner classes up to Advanced gymnastic classes for the more advanced athlete. We also offer classes in Tumbling only.

Parents & Tots (ages 18 months to 2 years)

This program is designed to help develop you and your child’s awareness of their body and how it can move. It is also focused on developing their self-esteem and decision-making skills. We believe that moving is a natural activity for kids. The preschool child is an individual who needs many opportunities to experience through movement. During this class, a parent stays with child through navigating equipment.

This program is an extension of Parents & Tots where they will additionally exercise the following skills:
