Studies show that preschool gymnastics enhances cognitive development and academic readiness essentials such as laterality, visual differentiation, hand-eye coordination, directionality, and sensory discrimination.
Emerging new science about brain development of the young child has now proven what coaches, teachers, and parents have long intuited—that movement and play are essential for maximizing intellectual and emotional development. Running, skipping, jumping, rolling, spinning cross-lateral movement and inverting are more than child’s play – they connect neurons necessary for later academic success.

Gymnastics Classes
Gymnastics is a confidence-building sport that improves strength, flexibility, agility, and coordination. It’s a great activity for developing skills for all other sports.
School-age progressive girls’ gymnastics classes include all four women’s Olympic events: balance beam, uneven bars, vault, and floor exercise in addition to tumble track and trampoline. Classes meet once per week for 55-70 minutes, and progress from beginner to advanced. Athletes are welcome to enroll in more than one class if they want to train more than once a week.
Our beginner classes, Jewels (5-6 year olds) and Rubies (6-12 year olds), are a perfect place to start. If your athlete has had previous gymnastics training and is no longer a beginner, please text us at 618-204-1981 to schedule an evaluation to find the perfect class fit.
