Recreational Gymnastics 

FUN, Fitness and Fundamentals

Gymnastics is recognized by the International Olympic Committee and by Sport Canada as a foundation sport because it plays a crucial part in the development of fundamental movement patterns and sport skills. Early participation enables children to enjoy a healthy and active lifestyle for a lifetime. It is our goal that each child develops physically, mentally, socially and emotionally through the sport of gymnastics.

Pre-School Program

Our Active Start Program focuses on developing physical literacy for children ages 12 months-6 years. Classes are designed to keep children active physically and engaged socially. Developing gross motor movement as well as practicing critical social skills such as following a circuit, waiting for a turn and listening to instructions are all targeted. We also focus on developing the Fundamental Movement Patterns - landings, springs, swings, locomoations, stationary positions, rotations and object manipulation.

​

Parent & Tot Program (2-3 Year Olds)

Parents actively participate with their toddlers, exploring physical literacy through music, games and age appropriate equipment.

​

Parent & Tot - 30 minute class

​

Active Start 2.5-6 Year Olds

Children ages 2.5-6 years participate independently in a class with children of the same age. We will develop physical literacy and social skills through music, games and the use of age appropriate equipment.

​

Jumping Beans (ages 2.5-4 years) - a 30-minute independent class for beginners or those who require a shorter amount of class time.

​

Sprouts (ages 3-5 years) - a 45-minute class for children who have been in Jumping Beans or children who need to continue to work on physical literacy and social skills. 

​

Hotshots (ages 4-6 years) - a 45-minute class for children with advanced gross motor skills and those that excel at the seven fundamental movement patterns.

​

Recreational Gymnastics Ages 6+

Our recreational program for children ages 6 and up, will be using our own in-club assessment program based on guidleines from Gymnastics Canada's Can-Gym Program.

Our focus will be on developing the Fundamental Movement Patters (FMP's) - landings, swings, stationary positions, rotations, locomotions and springs. Our club also uses skills in the USAG Xcel Program in our recreational program in order to assist the transition from recreational to the competitve program.
