Girls Gymnastics
The goal of our girls gymnastics program is to teach gymnastics skills in a fun and safe environment. In addition to learning cartwheels and bar pull-overs, your daughter will gain key development skills such as balance, coordination and self confidence that will help her in all areas of her life. USA’s girls gymnastics program emphasizes the importance of positive feedback and confidence building. We recognize the importance of students being confident in themselves both on and off the floor.
Along with strength and flexibility training, students will work on skills on the four Olympic events: vault, uneven parallel bars, balance beam and floor exercise. We also incorporate trampoline exercise and basic dance skills to enhance the technique of these tricks.
We offer a Recreational Gymnastics Program for girls age 4+ to teach skills at Levels 1-3, as well as a Competitive Gymnastics Program for Levels 4-10. All skill development is based off of the USAG Junior Olympic program and will be used to assess and place students in the appropriate level.
All new students will be placed in a Level 1 class. Experienced athletes should request an evaluation through the program director.
