In this ongoing class, students will learn stretching, conditioning, and basic, beginner gymnastics skills. This class is an introduction to gymnastics, so no prior knowledge is required. Please practice gymnastics in a safe space with no obstacles in the way. (coffee tables, breakable valuables, etc.) Also, provide a soft area (gymnastics mat, yoga mat, carpet) for your gymnast to practice on. Our class schedule looks like this: 0-15 minutes - Welcome and stretching. We will do a short warm-up and stretch 15-35 minutes - Skills. Skill will typically progress in this order: front rolls, back rolls, handstands, and cartwheels. 35-45 minutes - Game and conditioning. There will be a game or a contest at the end of class to review skills or show strength. We will do exercises that are targeted at building the muscles to be able to independently learn basic gymnastics skills. We will also have light stretching at the end of class.
Learning Goals
Students will learn how to do a handstand, front roll, backroll, and cartwheel.
