Class description: This 45-minute class is for girls and boys who are beginners in gymnastics. We will begin class with a quick warm-up and stretch. Then, we will work on basic gymnastics drills and skills for floor, beam, and vault. Some of the skills we will be working on include; rolls, donkey kicks, handstands, cartwheels, round-offs and bridges! All that is required for this class is a yoga mat or a padded surface/mat at least the size of a yoga mat. Note: While parents are not required to participate with their child in the class, supervision is highly recommended to maintain a safe environment.
