WIGGLE WORMS: ZERO TO HEROES (Parent/Child Class)
Boys and Girls Ages walking until 3 years.
Start your little one out with our action-packed class that will promote new perspectives and confidence! Teachers and parents will work together to introduce key concepts such as taking turns, sharing, listening and following directions. Our obstacle courses and fun activities will capture your child’s imagination while developing their motor skills, as well as their social and emotional growth!
Studies show that children learn cognitive skills more effectively in an environment that includes the body as well as the mind. Gymnastics and early childhood movement education is directly attributed to developing neurological pathways in students and promoting reading readiness. While the preschool gymnastics teacher runs about and plays with the little kids in her class, she is preparing her students for successful experiences in school; children who have participated in movement education activities have longer attention spans, increased communication skills, general problem solving skills and improved self-esteem.

GYMINICRICKETS:
I’m 4! And Ready for more / Coming alive at 5!
At four years old our classes start to focus on continuous growth in movement and the fundamentals of gymnastics. There are more opportunities to develop your child’s coordination, strength, spatial awareness, and body control. Four year olds are beginning to listen to and understand multi-step instructions, follow directions independently, and are eager to learn more progressions and skills!
At five years old, your child will be forming their comprehension skills, which will allow for more opportunities to learn. Your five year old is ready for a fast-paced class! Some of the gymnastics skills the children will be mastering are handstands, cartwheels, forward and backward rolls, bridges, and pullovers. Our goal is to create a learning environment that invokes wonder and excitement to try new things!
