Sprouts
Ages 3.5 - 4 yrs
Semi-Parented

 People mistake you for a rubber band!  

This is a transitional class (from fully-parented to un-parented) in which the children gain self-confidence and become more independent through smaller groups and the use of "easy to use" circuits   Gymnastics skills are introduced with the support of parents and with time, as the children become more confortable, the parents are weaned out of the program, still giving encouragement from the sidelines.

Class duration: 1 hour per week.  See the schedule for more information.
  You come home with more chalk on you than a chalkboard.

Shakers
Ages 4 - 5 Years
Unparented

 Your parents get you a new bed and the FIRST thing they tell you is that it's not for somersaulting on.
