Description

Class Experience

This class is for beginner gymnasts who can do a forward roll and cartwheel. 

Each class will consist of six 7-minute rotations, with a few minutes at the beginning and end for chit-chat. Rotations will start with a basic skill, then each week I will teach students a different progression from that skill.

Students will improve their gymnastics technique on beginner level skills and progress toward intermediate level skills.

In addition to being a former competitive gymnast, I have over 20 years' experience coaching gymnastics for children of all ages at the recreational and competitive level. I have created gymnastics curriculum and taught thousands of children the fundamentals of gymnastics, my favorite sport!

Soft surface for landing
Wide open space
Couch cushion or yoga block 
Optional: practice balance beam (not every week)

45 minutes per week in class, and no time outside of class.

As with any physical fitness routine, gymnastics carries the possibility of injury. Students should be have a wide open space for tumbling, dress comfortably for movement, have a bottle of water nearby to drink, and be supervised in their homes in case of a fall.
