The Jungle Gym is
unlike any other gymnastics gym! Our Jungle Gymnastics Program features Bars,
Beam, Floor, Vault, Trampoline, Rings,
and other "typical" gymnastics activities, but that's where the
similarity ends! We incorporate Slack line (a stretched nylon webbing strung like a tight rope), Indo Boards (think surfboard on a roller), rock climbing, cargo
nets, rope swings and more for strength, balance, coordination and FUN
that you just don't get anywhere else! If you want plain old gymnastics, keep
looking, because this isn't it! We love the freedom of movement, the thrill of
conquering new skills, and the excitement of perfecting a trick or routine.
It's a virtual Jungle in here where you can cross from one end of the gym to
the other without touching the ground! Come check out the Jungle Gym
difference! Small classes, expert coaching, and the most positive atmosphere in any gym on
the planet define the Jungle Gymnastics experience.
WE ALSO FEATURE TUMBLING FOR CHEERLEADERS THROUGH 12th Grade.
GYMNASTICS AND TUMBLING~
Tumbling for Cheerleadersfocuses on round-offs, handsprings,
aerials, and flips from tucks to twists. Beginning classes are offered for those who cannot do back handsprings. Advanced Classes are for those who can already do a roundoff back handspring. We take each athlete at their
own pace, so within any one class, there may be some working on
standing back handsprings, others on round-off back handsprings and yet
another on her layout or full. 45 minute class. (remember your first open gym is free each month to further work on your skills!) $60 a month.
Choose the appropriate age group for 18 months to 4 years of age and then follow the path from Beginners (“Tree Frogs”) to Intermediates (“Spider Monkeys”), to Advanced (“Flying Squirrels”) for ages 5 through 12.
Tumblebugs (18 mos- 2.5 yrs) Both morning and evening classes for your convenience. These 30 minute parent-assisted classes meet once a week and work with music, colors, counting, gross motor skills, socialization and everything from trampoline to bars, to beam! $50 a month
Koalas (3 and 4 year olds) Morning and Evening classes for both stay at home and working parents! More attention on taking turns, refining gross motor skills, and doing “real gymnastics skills!” 45 minute class. $60 a month
School Age (5-12 year olds) Divided into Beginner, (Kangas) Intermediate (Acrobats) and Advanced (Flying Squirrels!) classes, the gymnasts work on all the Olympic Gymnastics events plus trampoline with ropes and rock climbing sprinkled in for conditioning and exercise!
