We offer a Non-competitive Gymnastics Teaching Curriculum that includes a poster and sticker
reward system. The program is designed to:
• Teach skills in small achievable progressions that allow for the child
to experience success quickly and regularly, thus keeping them excited and motivated to keep learning;
• Encourage participants
to progress at a pace that is comfortable to them, while still challenging them to keep learning new skills;
• Define winning
as personal effort that creates self improvement;
• Help children enjoy physical activity and develop the life-long
healthy habit of exercising.
The posters and stars are a way for the participants and parents to see what their goals are, keep track of
what they have learned, and know what they still need to work on.
The Girls and Curriculum is for children 7 to 15. Children
in this program will begin with the basic skills of gymnastics and progress to advanced skills. The curriculum covers
all aspects of gymnastics, including mini-tramp and dance (for girls). The curriculum is divided into 6 levels, level
1 being the beginner level and 6 the most advanced.
Once
your child registers, you will be given a poster for your child’s level. This poster can be taken home and you will
be given stars to put on the skills your child learns throughout the term. This will help you know what is needed to move
up to the next level.
Evaluations: At least once a term
(in regular length terms), we will evaluate our students progress during “evaluation week”. The following week,
“star week”, students will be given stars to place on their posters by the skills they passed. To earn the stars,
students must perform the required skill 3 times in a row. Once they have completed each skill successfully, they will have
their picture taken with their coach and receive a certificate. They will then progress to the next level of class.
