Gymnastics
Program Our recreational gymnastics program follows the levels of the USA Gymnastics program. Levels 1 & 2 prepare a student with basic skills to either go onto our competitive program or use the strength and body awareness that gymnastics gives students in other sports. There is no other sport that challenges the mind and body like gymnastics does. Every child will move at a different pace and should look at their achievements as an individual competing against themselves. Preschool Gymnastics What we strive to achieve in the preschool program is for the children to understand how to sequence and develop an interest for the sport. Class length is: 40 minutes for 2 year-olds (parent/child) and 3 year-olds; 50 minutes for age 4–Kindergarten. School Age Girls Gymnastics Student to teacher ratio is 8:1. Classes are 60 minutes long, taking place once a week. Most of our classes are multi level, where the girls are assigned to an appropriate group on the first day of class. Once a student begins to perform Level 3 skills they may explore with us the possibility of joining our training team program. Tumbling Classes - Boys & Girls Our tumbling classes
primarily revolve around the requirements needed for cheerleading. We also offer... Competitive Gymnastics Teams We coach Levels 3-10 in the USA Gymnastics program. The teams are on an invitation basis only. The girls compete here in Indiana as well as across the country. We have to date coached 14 girls who have gone on to college with a scholarship in gymnastics. We have also coached more than 30 girls through their senior year of high school. We have found the discipline and challenge that gymnastics offers has helped the girls with other areas of their life. Most of the girls - even with a full practice schedule - excel academically.
