-Introduction to gymnastics

Preschool gymnastics is as much about learning to be a part of a group, and to follow coaches instructions, as it is about an introduction to skills. 

Our three main rules in preschool are:

1. Following coaches instructions 

2. Staying with the coach 

3. Keeping themselves and others safe. KiPS coaches are committed to helping every child participate safely and happily. 

In cases where preschoolers consistently struggle to follow the rules, we will ask that parents join the class with the child.

Designed for 4-year-olds who have successfully completed 1–2 sessions of Preschool Gymnastics and are ready for an extra challenge, but are not yet old enough for Beginner I. This invitation-only class bridges the gap between preschool and school-age gymnastics by introducing more advanced skills, increased independence, and longer skill circuits while maintaining a fun, age-appropriate learning environment. Athletes will continue building strength, coordination, confidence, and listening skills as they prepare for the transition into Beginner I.

Introduction to gymnastics through strength and agility

50 minute class

Our new co-ed Ninja Tumblers class combines obstacle-based challenges with the foundations of gymnastics skills to build strength, agility, coordination, and confidence. Athletes will develop these skills through climbing, jumping, swinging, balancing, and navigating exciting ninja-style obstacles while incorporating gymnastics movements and progressions. The class utilizes the overlapping events of boys and girls gymnastics, including Vault and Floor Exercise, while also incorporating elements from the boys gymnastics events: Pommel Horse, Still Rings, Parallel Bars, and Horizontal Bar, through strength-based drills and athletic challenges. Designed to develop body awareness, power, and control as an introduction to boys and girls gymnastics, this class provides a fun and supportive environment where athletes can build a strong gymnastics foundation while improving overall athletic ability.

Adaptive Gymnastics is a welcoming gymnastics class designed to support every child’s unique needs and abilities. This class provides a structured yet flexible environment with a lower coach-to-athlete ratio and a slower pace, allowing for individualized attention and guidance.

Children who may benefit from additional support with communication, sensory processing, or motor planning thrive in this setting — and siblings and typical peers are encouraged to join! Families can experience gymnastics together while developing confidence, coordination, empathy, and a love of movement through positive, developmentally appropriate activities.
