Developing Gymnasts One Dream At A Time!

                                   

Co-Educational Movement

At Olympic Gymnastics Academy we believe that a young start is instrumental in creating developmentally successful children.  So, our programs begin at an early age with parental involvement.  Later, students are encouraged to attend their own classes -- often, under the watchful eyes of parents.

 Basic Units of Activity:

  • Perceptual – motor and locomotor – running, hopping, jumping, skipping, rolling, turning, climbing, pulling and twisting.

  •  Manipulative – hoops, beanbags, jump rope, ball handling.

  •  Gymnastics – safety and equipment – orientation – bars, beam, tumbling, vault, trampoline and obstacle course.


  Toddlers (parent/child class)

At this level, we are establishing the foundation of all movement.  It is important to fill the whole foundation layer, like the bricks at the base of the pyramid.  Therefore, children are taken through every layer possible with help from mom or dad and guidance from the instructor.


 Tumble Bees/Flips I/Kinder Club

This program is designed for children who can function independently of the parent in a learning situation with an instructor.  Class activities are directed toward creating a desire for physical activity and general familiarity with gym equipment, locomotor skill development and establishing a teacher/student bond. 


Flips II

These classes continue the skill progressions while allowing each student to work at their own pace.  We encourage students at this level to attend twice per week.
