Early Childhood

Tiny Tot Classes

Parent Tot Classes

Parent-Tot classes are designed specifically for children aged 18 months to 3 years. We start with a stretching song, spend time upside down, and visit all four Tiny Tot events—bars, beam, floor, and trampoline. Students spend about seven minutes at each station, then finish with time to play with a parachute. Watch your child gain confidence in movement and playground safety.

Grasshoppers

Grasshopper classes are for three-year-old children who are potty trained and diaper free. With a maximum class size of five students per coach, children get a great introduction to organized sports and group classes. Along with beginning gymnastics skills, they learn to walk in a line, take turns, and follow coach directions. This 45-minute class starts with a warm-up song and stretching, then activities on two of the four apparatuses, rotating each week.

Crickets

Cricket classes are for beginning students ages 4 to 6. Even if your child has done gymnastics before, this is a great place to start because we cover the basics that support overall athletic success. Each 45-minute class starts with a song and warm-up, followed by instruction on two of the four apparatuses. Events switch each week so all four are covered over two weeks.

Bumblebees

Bumblebee classes are intermediate classes for children ages 4 to 6. Students test into this level from Crickets and begin learning skills such as handstands, cartwheels, and pullovers. Class includes a song, stretching, conditioning, and work on floor, bars, and either beam or trampoline. This class is one hour long.

Hummingbirds

Hummingbird classes are advanced classes for students ages 4 to 6. Children test into this level from Bumblebees and build on the skills they learned there. Classes start with running, skipping, conditioning, and stretching. Students go to floor, bars, and alternate beam or trampoline each week, with early vaulting skills incorporated into floor exercise. This class is one hour long.

Mini-Bounders / Bounders

This beginning-level class is for girls in first through fifth grade. Students have the opportunity to work on bars, beam, floor, vault, and trampoline. In this one-hour class, they can expect to practice handstands, cartwheels, bridge kickovers, pullovers, rolls on the beam, and many other skills. Each class includes a warm-up and training on three of the five apparatuses, with all five covered over two weeks. Watch for announcements about special events and the end-of-year performance.

Mini-Flips / Flips

This one-hour-and-15-minute class includes more conditioning as upper-body strength becomes essential for advanced gymnastics skills. Students warm up, then go to floor, bars, beam, and vault or trampoline.

Springers

Springers is the highest level in our class program before students enter middle school or high school classes. Students take skills learned on soft mats and trampolines to the floor, where they connect them into combinations and sequences. They continue working bars and beam, including handstands on beam, leaps, cartwheel-to-handstand quarter-turn dismounts, cast squat-ons, kip mounts, low-to-high bar combinations, and regulation handspring vaults. This class is one hour and 30 minutes and includes an extra 15 minutes of conditioning.
