Our Developmental Preschool Gymnastics Program is all about learning and exploring, and our curriculum offers ample opportunities for both! Providing a fun and safe environment where preschoolers form positive learning attitudes is what our program is about. Fundamental movement education and basic motor skills that help children develop a sense of physical fitness, coordination, spatial awareness, strength, flexibility and balance are a part of weekly themed lesson plans. Our little gymnasts learn basic gymnastics skills as well as climbing, rolling, swinging, jumping and balancing while improving their listening skills and ability to follow directions.
