PRESCHOOL: One of the many benefits of gymnastics is how the sport can teach the athletic foundation needed for all other sports. Preschool is the perfect class for this. While we recognize children this age are now able to sign up for many other activities, we strongly believe gymnastics provides a more well-rounded approach to physical development, coordination, balance, agility, strength, reaction time and tracking (a skill that helps with reading) than most other sports for kids this age. The Preschool class has a stronger focus on skill development without losing any of the fun and excitement. Children will be actively engaged on bars, beam, floor and tumble trampoline along with other fun games and activities. Independent 4 and 5 year-olds will reap benefits for many years to come with the foundation built in our preschool class.
D-1: For young gymnasts leaving our preschool program, our D-1 program will be a fluid transition for youngsters 6 – 8 years old. This hour long class offers beginning basics on vault, bars, beam, floor and tumble tramp. In addition to all their improvements in gymnastics, D-1 gymnastics will help your daughter/son build confidence, strength, coordination and balance in a fun, positive and rewarding environment. If you are looking for a beginning activity to build your daughter’s confidence, strength and coordination, D-1 gymnastics is our beginning gymnastics class for girls age 6-12. This hour long class offers beginning basics on vault, bars, beam, floor and tumble tramp to girls new to gymnastics. The majority of girls with little to no gymnastics experience will spend 9-12 months in girls gymnastics before progressing to the next level. If your child likes a challenge and wants to progress faster, we encourage you to sign up for two classes! Girls gymnastics is for every girl who wants to have a fun, positive and rewarding gymnastics experience.
D-2: If your daughter has mastered D-1 and is ready for an even greater challenge, our D-2 class is a great stepping stone towards t improving your skills if you are not yet sure competitive gymnastics is your path. You will see many of our team teachers coaching the girls in D-2. This class takes a more focused approach on vault, bars, beam and floor while introducing the basics and concepts of our pre-team class and team. To be part of the class, girls should know body positions such as tuck, pike, straddle, wolf, hollow, basic cartwheel and handstand concepts, and have a level of comfort on the beam and bars. This class is perfect for all girls with a desire to work hard and improve their gymnastics skills.
D-3: Taught by our most dynamic and energetic instructors, your daughter will come away from our class with the emphasis on skill development and requirements for the Country Gymnastics Pre-team/Team Program. This class is focused on teaching gymnastics basics on vault, bars, beam, floor and tumble tramp. To have the most success in D-3 class, girls should have some gymnastics experience. Girls should know body positions such as tuck, pike, straddle, wolf, hollow, basic cartwheel and handstand concepts, and have a level of comfort on the beam and bars. The best part of thisn class is watching your young daughter make significant progress in not only her gymnastics, but also her confidence, focus and determination!
Pre-Team/Team: Gymnasts interested in the competitive aspect of the sport of gymnastics benefit from the pre-team and team programs through their increased skill development, a greater understanding of how to combine individual skills into choreographed routines, and a greater confidence and appreciation of their own abilities.
