In recreational gymnastic classes, participants typically engage in a variety of activities and exercises that promote strength, flexibility, coordination, balance, and agility. These classes often incorporate the use of gymnastics equipment such as bars, balance beams, spring floor, vaults, trampolines, and mats. Depending on the age and skill level of the participants, we teach skills in progression and build up to more difficulty and complex skills as gymnasts achieve success. As skills improve, there is opportunity to move up to different levels.

Here are some key aspects you can expect from recreational gymnastic classes:

1. Skill Development

Participants will learn basic gymnastics skills such as forward and backward rolls, handstands, cartwheels, round-offs and various jumps. As they progress, they may be introduced to more advanced skills like back walkovers and varying types of forward and backward rolls, depending on their abilities and the class structure.

2. Conditioning and Strength Training

Gymnastics requires a strong foundation of physical fitness. Participants will engage in stretching exercises and conditioning routines to develop strength, endurance, and flexibility. These activities may include bodyweight exercises, stretching, and targeted muscle conditioning.

3. Apparatus Work

Gymnastic classes often include practice on various apparatus such as bars, beams, vaults, and floor exercise mats. Participants will have the opportunity to try different skills and routines on these apparatus, focusing on proper technique and safety.

4. Progression and Advancement

Recreational gymnastic classes are typically structured to accommodate participants of different skill levels, from beginners to more experienced individuals. As participants improve their abilities, they may have opportunities to advance to higher-level classes or join more specialized programs if they desire.

5. Fun and Social Interaction

Recreational gymnastic classes emphasize enjoyment and a positive atmosphere. Participants can make new friends, engage in group activities, and experience the joy of learning and achieving new gymnastic skills.
