Gymnastics Classes Question

Do you offer trial classes?

We offer trial classes once a session has begun, as long as a class has availability. All trial classes have a fee that will be credited to your account if you sign up.

Do you break the students up by age or ability or both?

Classes are divided by both age and ability.

Our Tumble Bear program is our preschool program and students are divided by age only. The Tumble Bears consist of our Koalas and Pandas. The Koalas are for 3-4 year olds and the Pandas are for 4-5 year olds.

Our Tumble Kids program is for children 6-17 years of age and divided by both age and ability. The Tumble Kids consist of Bronze, Silver and Gold levels. The Bronze Level is for the beginner gymnast with little or no experience.

The Silver level offers two levels; Silver 1 and Silver 2. Silver 1 is the first level within this category and is for the gymnasts who demonstrate a solid foundation and understanding of the basic skills on all the events. Silver 2 is an extension of the Silver 1 level where the students gain strength and confidence as they perfect intermediate level skills.

The Gold level is the most advanced level within the Tumble Kids program and is for students who have mastered the intermediate level skills introduced in the Silver 2 level.

Do you offer any pre-team and team programs?

We have very successful team programs and compete in the USAG Developmental Prep Program and the NJ JOGA League. Our Star Program is our pre-team program where the gymnasts practice several times a week for several hours at a time to prepare for the competition teams.

How do you secure a position on a pre-team or team program?

We continually evaluate all students, and if your child displays the natural strength and flexibility needed for competitive gymnastics we will approach you to discuss joining one of the teams. If you would like feedback on your child and their prospect for team, we would be happy to do so, once they have been in class for a few weeks.

What times and days are the classes offered?

During the school year, classes are offered Monday through Saturday, with multiple classes going on at one time, offering a variety of ages and ability levels. During the summer, we offer classes Monday through Thursday. You can view our full class schedule on the schedules page of our website.

What if my child wants to come more than once a week?

You can sign your child up for as many classes as you like during the week. We offer a wide selection of classes to meet your schedules.

What if we miss a class, do you have a make-up policy?

Each student is allowed four make-ups per season. We ask that you call your child out prior to class in order to be eligible for a make-up class. Make-ups can be done on any day or time that works for your schedule as long as we have space in the class.

Please understand, we do not guarantee make-ups but will do our best to accommodate. Make-ups can only be used while currently enrolled and cannot be used in lieu of monthly tuition.

What if the gym closes other than for the scheduled holidays, Do we get a make up for the missed class?

Yes, we offer a make-up for any canceled classes other than our holiday scheduled posted on the website.

How do we know what level to register my child for?

If you are a new customer and your child has no gymnastics experience and he/she is under the age of 6, she/he would be in placed in our Tumble Bear program by their age. If they are they are 6 years old or older, they would be placed in a Bronze level class that corresponds to their current age. If they have previous gymnastics experience, it is quite possible they would be placed in our Silver 1 or Silver 2 level classes.

Do you do any evaluations throughout the year that measure the children’s progress?

Annually in mid-March we do a comprehensive student evaluation for each enrolled student. The evaluation takes place during their current class over a period of a few lessons. These evaluations provide feedback on strength, flexibility, skills and recommendations for future class enrollment.

Is there any special event that marks the end of the season?

During the last month of the season (June) we have special events during the students regularly scheduled classes. In the past, we have had Olympic Themed Week, Fitness Challenge Week, and Bring a Friend Week.

Do you offer any private lessons?

Yes. Private lessons are scheduled directly with the staff once students are enrolled in the program.
