Tumbling

Introduction to Tumbling This class is designed for boys & girls who want to concentrate their efforts on the tumbling aspect of gymnastics. This class is great for those who aren't interested in the other Olympic gymnastics events. This class emphasizes the fundamentals of tumbling: cartwheels and round-offs, with an introduction to back handsprings.

Intermediate Tumbling This class is designed for the tumbler who has mastered what is being taught at the intro to tumbling level. At this point, we are ready to put more emphasis on the standing back handspring, eventually combining the round-off and the back handspring. We are still focusing on the correct technique of the cartwheel and round-off making the round-off back handspring easier and safer.

Advanced Tumbling This class is designed for the tumbler who has mastered what is being taught at the intermediate tumbling level. At this point, we are putting the round-off and the back handspring together with little assistance and working diligently on the standing back handspring. Because the keys to a good round-off back handspring are correct technique and self-confidence, the main focus in the accelerated class is getting in the repetitions in order to accomplish both.
