Preschool Class (Ages 3.5-5)
The focus of this class is to learn the proper shapes and form necessary to perform fundamental gymnastics skills independently. This will develop your child's strength, confidence, motor skills and more. Skill progression will be based on age as well as the progress of each individual gymnast. Since children progress at different rates, stations are set up to accommodate varied abilities. Gymnasts will gain more experience across all 4 events with vault, bars, beam and tumbling all incorporated into a variety of stations and obstacles. Learning to take turns, socializing and being kind to classmates is emphasized for school readiness. The class will include time to utilize the space and equipment more freely.
