Progressive
Our recreational classes help each child achieve their potential in a safe and positive learning environment. Our classes are based on skill progressions which use each skill as a building block to a more advanced skill. As gymnasts master one set of skills, they are challenged with a new set of skills to keep them engaged and further their development. Gymnastics is also great for those working on balance, flexibility, strength, agility and coordination.
