​
Each 4-week session is 55 minutes long once a week and are offered throughout the year. Recreational classes follow the USA Gymnastics skills progression.
HIGH SCHOOL TRAINING PROGRAM
The High School Training Program is for HS girls interested in training more hours during the off-season. The skill requirements and expectations for HS gymnastics is similar to USAG Level 9. Training during the off-season helps gymnasts keep acquired skills and train new, more advanced skills and combinations. Gymnasts practice 2.5 hours three times a week.
​
Middle School Training Program begins in June 2022.

This class is for cheerleaders who want to improve their tumbling and cheer jumps.
Tumbling training will focus on front and back walkovers, front and back handsprings, front and back saltos, round-off back handspring series, and round-off back handspring with saltos. Classes are 1 hour once a week and are offered throughout the year. The Black Tumbling group is for HS students; Orange Tumbling is for students in grades 1st-8th grades.
