Fun parented and un-parented classes sure to help your child develop physical literacy skills at an early age. Gymnastics builds a strong foundation for an active life. We help build strength, increases flexibility, improve balance, quicken motor skills and create a sense of mind body awareness.

Children aged 12-24 months refine motor skills in an atmosphere that fosters imagination and complex play, with a focus on fine and gross motor skill development and mind-body awareness.

Future Stars - 2-3 Years

Gymnasts learn to run, jump, climb, balance and swing in a structured setting that centers around play, with a continued focus on fine and gross motor skill development and mind-body awareness.

Twinkle Stars - 3 + Years

The first independent class. Gymnasts learn the basic Fundamental Movement Patterns (FMPs)- landings, locomotions, balances, springs, swings, rotations and object manipulation. Skills are incorporated into games and on the various apparatus. Skills include forward rolls, running, log rolls, donkey kicks and baby cartwheels.

Rising Stars - 4 + Years

Gymnasts continue working on the Fundamental Movement Patterns (FMPs) on all the apparatus (balance beams, bars, floor, vault and trampoline), with an emphasis on progressing through their skills. Gymnasts develop their balance and begin trampoline skills. Backward rolls are introduced.

Super Stars - 5+ Years

School aged classesCAN GYM PROGRAM

We follow the CanGym program developed by Gymnastics Canada. Girls and boys learn the basics of skills & drills on vault, floor, bars, beam, tramp & conditioning. Children earn ribbons as they progress through levels. There are 12 levels & ribbons - burgundy, red, tan, bronze, purple, blue, turquoise, silver, orange, yellow, green and gold. The gymnast has completed a ribbon when he/she has "mastered" each skill in that level. Some ribbons may take only one session to complete, while most may require multiple sessions. We offer co-ed classes, boys only classes as well.
