RecGym

RecGym is for all children ages 6-12.

Children work and advance at their own pace, therefore we welcome children to join anytime during the season as long as space permits.

This program runs from September through June.


Curriculum

Our coaches follow a structured curriculum and children advance through progressive levels, earning a ribbon for each level that they master.   Most children will require a full season (September to June) to achieve a level, with the higher levels requiring two or more full sessions. Children always work at their own pace.  Children who want to advance more quickly may register for two classes a week. 

Year End Event

Every June, we hold a competition and showcase for our recreational program participants. This is a fun event and an opportunity for parents to see the routines that the children learned in their class. Attendance is optional and there is an extra cost to participate.

Report Cards & Achievement Ribbons

Report cards are provided at the last class in June and ribbons are awarded at that time.   

Recreational Programs

Novice Gymnastics (Girls Only)

Novice classes are for girls ages 6-8 with natural strength, coordination and flexibility who love gymnastics!  This class will suit the gymnast who is self-motivated and who has a strong desire to do quality gymnastics. 

In these 90 minute classes, our coaches will expect a higher quality of execution on fundamental skills and basics which is essential to perform more advanced gymnastics.
