WHAT TO EXPECT<br />
<strong>Gymnastics</strong> is an exciting sport that incorporates discipline and fun while learning how to flip,<br />
twist, and roll. The gymnasts program will teach you how to properly stretch and warm up muscles<br />
to help prevent injuries. They will also learn conditioning exercises to help strengthen their<br />
muscles. The Tikes, Toddler and Level one classes are a critical step in gymnastics and it is<br />
important to have this solid foundation. The average time a gymnast spends in a level is<br />
6-12 months and can be even longer as you move up to higher levels. Parents and children alike<br />
should expect to be in level one for at least 3-5 sessions with practice at home on<br />
basic skills stretching and strengthening. Our ultimate goal in gymnastics is to teach children a<br />
fun way to keep in shape. If the child is in gymnastics for a fun way to learn how to flip or to<br />
compete, the Y is a great place to start. Our goal is to have children smiling, laughing and<br />
learning.<br />
