Level 1 - SHOOTING STARS are just starting on their gymnastics journey or are continuing to work on the basics. These gymnasts begin building strength and flexibility as well as learning and perfecting cartwheels, handstands, round offs, and bridges and more on floor. They will also work on kicking to a handstand on vault, pullovers and casts on bars, and rolls, basic walks, jumps, and turns on beam. Students achieve greater strength, flexibility and coordination and move forward with acrobatic skills as they are ready. Our Shooting Stars truly shine!

Level 2 - FIREBALLS take off where Shooting Stars ended, pursuing this next level of this program or having achieved these skills in other gymnastics programs.  Students continue to develop greater strength, flexibility and coordination and move on to higher level skills that they will now be ready to take on. Students in these classes should have a good grasp of the basics to ensure success as new skills are added to their repertoire. These gymnasts will work on back extension rolls, back walkovers, front limbers, and building power in their round-offs. On the equipment, they will begin working skills such as on cartwheels and roundoff dismounts on beam, back hip circles, mill circles, and underswing dismounts on bars, and flatbacks on vault.                                  

Level 3 - JUPITERS should have a high level of strength and flexibility to be able to achieve advanced skills. In these programs students will build on all events with skills such as handstand pirouettes, back extension rolls, one handed cartwheels and front and back handsprings on floor, handstand flatbacks on vault, advanced jumps, leaps, and turns, handstands, and cartwheels on beam, and mill circles, glides, kips, and high bar work on uneven bars. It will continue to challenge your child on the four disciplines of Gymnastics while developing strength and coordination as well as team building and sportsmanship.
