7-week session begins the week of October 26, 2020

Gymnastics teaches more than flips. Gymnastics teaches confidence, discipline, courage, and perseverance

By participating in gymnastics, children encounter things that will push them out of their comfort zone. Making a decision to trust themselves and their coaches is a skill that will carry over to all areas of their life. Participating in a sport that has a strict code of conduct teaches the importance of safety and respect. Gymnastics can assist with the development of confidence through positive experiences and achievements, and requires concentration and commitment.
