Class Goals

This class is for girls with no prior experience with gymnastics.  The age ranges from 6 to 12 years old.  The material covered in this class will include gymnastics event description and purpose, gymnastics vocabulary, and skill development.  Children will learn the most relevant body positions in the sport i.e. straight, hollow, tuck and pike.  They will gain the ability to execute these positions in static as well as dynamic settings.  Through conditioning students develop groups of muscles that are important to further their advancement.  Each weekly class is 55 minutes long and includes a 10 minute warm up, conditioning, and practice in two events.
