SUMMER BOY'S REC Class Descriptions

The Boys Recreational Gymnastics program is designed to develop the basic gymnastics skills and the foundation on which these skills rest: strength, flexibility, balance and motor coordination. We strive to maintain a safe, positive, fun and creative atmosphere where each boy is encouraged to improve at his own pace. Two of our most important goals are to develop self-confidence and to help the boys to understand the relationship between consistent practice and improvement of ability.

REC. I (5 – 6 yrs.)

In this class for children in kindergarten and first grade, we introduce new skills and techniques that build on those they’ve learned in our Preschool program. They learn new ways to roll, improve their cartwheels and strengthen their muscles using stations and drills designed for their ages and abilities. We include a variety of challenges (i.e. eye/hand and eye/foot coordination, balance, etc.) that will enhance any sport a child may play, not just gymnastics.

REC. II (7+ yrs.)

This 55-minute class for our older beginner gymnasts is designed to improve their flexibility and strengthen their muscles. Each class will start with a basic warm-up, and the boys then move on to the men’s equipment. Because young boys usually lack the strength required for some of the gymnastics apparatus, the floor exercise and vault are emphasized most at the beginning levels.

REC. II ADV. (7+ yrs.) (Invitation Only)

This class is for boys with an exceptional ability and interest in gymnastics. Boys are encouraged to participate two times each week, but there is an option for one day only. Boys must by evaluated for this class.
