Parental Guidance
Risk of injury if students are not performing skills correctly. Parental guidance and assistance may be needed. Please make sure proper safety precautions are taken. For example, make sure student is not performing skills next to furniture and has proper matting required for class. Understand learner is doing physical fitness and has risk of injury if not properly supervised by parent.
Please have open space clear of furniture, gymnastics or yoga mat, bottle of water, and read supply list above.
This is a risky class because the student does not have a coach at home to work with them on proper form and technique and the potential for injury exists. Parent supervision(adult present during the class) and skills may need to be modified according to skill level, coordination, and strength of each student.
