Parent participation is required for this class. The goals of Movers is to allow young gymnasts to explore the equipment and introduce gymnastics techniques. Turn taking, listening, and self-confidence begin to develop here.
Hoppers was created for our youngest gymnasts that are ready to challenge their listening and motor skills primarily depending on the instruction of the coach. Parents play a more peripheral role in this class.
Jumpers: 3 yrs (50 minute class)
Jumpers is designed for children who are toilet-trained and ready to transition into a more independent setting, without parental participation. Gymnasts improve coordination and enhance socialization with peers as they explore new challenges and progress at their own pace.
Tumblers: 4yrs-5yrs (60 minute class)
In this class, we place more emphasis on flexibility, balance, strength and independence. Tumblers creates a strong foundation for students as they advance to more difficult techniques and skills.
Climbers: 5yrs-6yrs (60 minute class)
Climbers are introduced to the larger full-sized equipment. Building on the foundational skills learned in earlier classes, gymnasts will apply those techniques to refine their abilities. This class serves as a great bridge into our recreational programs, as students graduate from this class upon completing kindergarten.
Flyers: 5yrs-6yrs (90 minute class twice per week – Coach Recommendation only)
Gymnasts attend this class twice a week for a 1.5 hour session (3 hours total). The main focus of Flyers is improving technique, form, and learning new skills in a fast-paced atmosphere. Please contact Alexus Cole-Edwards for an evaluation (nvgkinderprogram@gmail.com).
