Frequently asked questions
Our coaches provide ongoing feedback throughout the year, and each gymnast receives an annual evaluation to track progress and celebrate achievements. If your child is ready for new challenges, we’ll let you know.
Each class begins with a 15-minute warm-up, followed by skill training using our bi-weekly event rotation. Every gymnast will have the opportunity to train on all events over the course of the two-week cycle.
No prior gymnastics experience is required. Our beginner classes are designed to help children build confidence while learning the fundamentals in a fun and supportive environment.
If your child has previous gymnastics experience, we typically recommend starting in our Emerald (Beginner) level. If you’re unsure, we’re happy to schedule a coach evaluation to ensure they’re placed in the class that’s the best fit for their current skill level.
Gymnasts should wear comfortable, athletic clothing that allows for easy movement. Please bring a water bottle to stay hydrated during class.
Advancement is based on skill development rather than a set schedule. Coaches evaluate each gymnast throughout the year and will discuss the next level with you as soon as your child is ready. There are no designated promotion periods, so advancement can happen at any time.
