Classes offered at Elite Gymnastics are based on progressive skill building techniques. Advancement to higher levels can be attained when a student demonstrates they have mastered the skills at their current level and are ready to learn and develop more advanced skills. At certain intervals of time, usually at the end of a session, we require the student to take a skills test. This will allow coaches to determine if your child is ready to advance to the next level of training. Students can progress at their own pace while we encourage all gymnasts to work hard and set goals. All recommendations for placement are based on the coach's evaluation. All final decisions on placement are at the discretion of the Program Directors. Girls and Boys Developmental This program offers a variety of fun activities for children ages 5 years old and up. We follow guidelines set by USA Gymnastics, membership. We abide by the rules and regulations the organization has set forth. USA Gymnastics has developed standards to help determine the skill level at which a gymnast should be participating, correlating to individual skills the child has acquired. Through the program, a child also builds self-esteem, concentration, rhythm, and flexibility just to name a few. We provide the essential tools and instructors to make the dream possible. Tot & Preschool (Boys & Girls ages 2-6) We introduce children to the world of gymnastics through physical fitness, coordination, self-awareness and creative movement. Children in this age group are very impressionable and consistently want to play, learn and have fun. We provide a great environment filled with activities that teach basic skills in gymnastics.
