On Friday evenings at Gymnastic World Naples, we offer a Tumbling program for both Beginner and Advanced tumblers. Our beginner’s class is from 4 pm – 5 pm, and our advanced class is from 5 pm – 6pm.
All classes are structured and include warm-up, stretch, tumbling, and jumps. Students will have access to all the different equipment our gym offers, including the 40-foot Tumble Trak, Spring Floor, a foam pit, and numerous floor mats to assist in their learning experience. There are strict rules about safety, and constant supervision is provided by our coaches.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Class begins with a group warm-up and stretch and then breaks off into tumbling drills and skills. Students are conditioned for strength building and flexibility at the end of class. Students are taught how to control their bodies and are offered positive reinforcement to keep them focused, moving, and learning. Whether your child is just a beginner, wants to be a more well-rounded dancer, needs help getting that one skill they need to make their cheerleading squad, or is a retired gymnast who just can’t stay out of the gym, Tumble classes are a perfect place for them!
