Our Academy Classes Offer Something For Everyone...
Tiny Tots 30 Minutes Boys/Girls Ages 1 ½ to 2 ½
Our mommy and me class. Fun parent and child interaction with basic gymnastics concepts such as warm-up, stretching, rolls, swinging, and balancing. Tots use an obstacle course to work important coordination skills in an organized circuit. Fun for parent and child alike.
Tumble Tots 45 Minutes Boys/Girls Ages 3 - 4
Our first class for young children ready to take a class on their own. For this class parents may not accompany their children on the floor. Offers an introduction to beginner gymnastics skills. Children use all of the equipment including trampoline, bars, beams, and foam pit. This class also teaches important social skills such as standing in line, waiting your turn, and following directions.
Beginners 1 Hour Boys/Girls Ages 5 – 12
Our most popular class, Beginners is designed for children who have little or no gymnastics experience. Children use all the equipment to learn the basics before moving up to the Intermediate or Hotshots Level. Cartwheels, Rolls, Handstands, Swings, Casts, Beam Walks/Jumps, Running and Jumping on Vault. This recreational academy class stresses fun while learning good technique on these basic skills.
Intermediate Boys 1 ½ Hours Boys Ages 6 - 14
Children are ready for Intermediates when they have mastered Beginners skills (cartwheels, handstands, forward and backward rolls, running and punching, bridges, and basic bars skills). Intermediates work the skills outlined by USA Gymnastics Level 2. This recreational class is highly recommended for boys (and girls) interested in a more challenging experience, yet it is still very fun. The Wednesday class is Boy's Only and the Saturday Class is co-ed.
Advanced 1 ½ Hours Boys/Girls Ages 6 – 14
Advanced teaches the skills of USA Gymnastics Level 3. It is progressive towards our competitive team program Level 4+, but has a recreational emphasis. Gymnasts are ready for Advanced when they have mastered the Intermediate skills or, alternatively, Hotshots Level 2.
Hotshots 1 ¾ Hours Girls Only Ages 5+
Hotshots is a multi-dimensional fasttrack program designed to be tailored to each individual gymnasts’ goals and pace. Girls are ready for Hotshots when they have mastered the Beginners skills. Hotshots encompasses two levels (Level 2 and Level 3). These two levels must both be mastered before progressing on to the Level 4 Team. Usually your child will be invited to Hotshots, but if you are interested don’t hesitate to ask. While in Hotshots, gymnasts have the option to take part in small competitions under the Greater Pasadena Gymnastics Association. *Link to GPGA Page* We do ask for a 2 days/week commitment, but we are accommodating to special considerations.
