BLUE

Ages 6 or older

55 Minutes

Our Blue class is a one hour beginner class, and it is based on ability, rather than by age. Your child must be at least 6 years old to join a Blue Class. In this level we try to stress the importance of listening and goal setting, and emphasize a love of physical activity.

Some of the skills your gymnast would be working on could include handstands, cartwheels, backbends, pullovers and backhip circles. A typical class format for Blue would be:

Warmup - Children will run, do jumping jacks, or some other warm up to raise the heart rate.

Group Stretch - The children will stretch together as a group. 

Events - Children will be broken into smaller groups to go to each event (bars, beam, floor & vault). 

*In order to move to the next level (Purple) your gymnast must demonstrate a mastery of both the backbend on floor and the pullover on bars.
