Description:

Just for boys!  This 90 minute class takes the development goals from the first four CanGym levels and turns them sideways.  Fast paced and fun, this introductory class is sure to challenge boys age 6+ who are starting their gymnastics journey.  Foundational movements and skills are taught in unique ways using common apparatus (high bar, vault, floor), mens apparatus (rings, pommel, parallel bars), trampoline, and a touch of gym warrior.  Safe landing and fall stations are incorporated into every lesson.

 A portion of each class will involve level appropriate flexibility and conditioning training. 

Please note that progress is child specific and may take more than one session to master required skills. There may be a fee for pre-program assessment. 

Participants are encouraged to attend FLIPS mini meets (session show) to demonstrate their progress.
