What will be taught? The class covers foundational skills in gymnastics and flexibility, focusing on stability, balance, coordination, dynamic strength, power, and full-body integration. Flexibility and stretching are also key elements, aimed at enhancing mobility, recovery, and endurance. Class Structure: The course spans four weeks with multiple lessons per week. Each week includes three main exercise videos focusing on gymnastics movements and one flexibility/stretching video to support mobility and recovery. Teaching Method: Instruction is provided through pre-recorded video lessons, combining visual demonstrations with verbal explanations. Each lesson emphasizes practical exercises to build essential skills step-by-step, promoting a hands-on, active learning approach. Teaching Style: The teaching style is supportive and instructional, guiding students through each exercise with attention to safety, proper technique, and gradual progression. The flexibility sessions focus on enhancing range of motion in a gentle, controlled manner. Learner Interaction: Interaction primarily occurs through video content, which learners can follow at their own pace. Since it's not a live class, direct interaction is limited, but there may be opportunities for learners to ask questions or share progress in a discussion forum or group (if offered). This structure allows students to work independently, while the videos provide clear guidance to help them develop core skills and flexibility for gymnastics.
