Preschool Gymnastics

Our gymnastics programs typically run from August through June. Summer offerings vary from year-to-year depending on staffing, but may include camps and other fun events in the month of July. Classes are mixed gender until the age of six (when boys and girls begin to specialize in gender specific events). They are grouped by age first, then by ability as children progress. 

Each class is designed to promote healthy motor development - with opportunities to balance, bounce, jump, swing, spin, roll, slide, climb and tumble on equipment designed and sized just for them. We offer a safe space for children to test their physical limits, to take risks and make mistakes - we’ve got them covered with 2-inch foam flooring. 

Gymnastics skills are broken down into age-appropriate progressions, with a focus on technique and safety. Skills are demonstrated and explained for our visual and auditory learners, then spotted as needed for tactile and kinesthetic learners. Students learn to sequence as they move through obstacles in our gym circuit. Turn taking is introduced, and children grow their ability to listen and follow direction from instructors. 

We help your child build a strong foundation for future development. Physical benefits include increased cardio health, muscle development, core strength, flexibility, agility, coordination, postural control, balance and more!

A new theme or concept is introduced weekly (and repeated annually), with lesson plans thoughtfully crafted to benefit our students. Creative movement songs, games and activities are woven into each class. We utilize props like shaky eggs, scarves, hoops, bean bags, rhythm sticks, bubbles and parachute to make these classes engaging and FUN!

Social-emotional skills bloom as children begin to take an interest in their classmates and teachers. In our preschool program we learn to collaborate with peers, respect those around us, be a good friend and develop a growth mindset.  Mistakes are opportunities to persevere and learn!
