Supplement to PE Classes
Here at Athletica Gymnastics, we recognize that not all schools have access to a wide range of gymnastics equipment. Gymnastics presents an excellent opportunity to develop youth across a range of necessary physical skills that will benefit participants for years to come. Our programs are designed for all age groups and skill levels. Whether you are wanting to take a one time trip to our facility or would like to set up a recurring program at Athletica, we are excited to offer our assistance and experience to you and your class!
Developing Physical Literacy
Training in a gym can bring strength and power, however, it neglects the many areas that gymnastics enriches. Consider how balance, flexibility, and coordination are all interrelated and necessary skills in any sport or activity – gymnastics is a discipline that is focused on improving these areas in addition to strength and power.
Unlike most physical training programs, gymnastics will use and train muscle groups and body positions that are otherwise often untrained and underutilized.
Through a series of exciting and safe activities, participants will develop their ability to control their bodies in a range of situations. Motions, springs, swings, statics, rotations, and landings all work towards building muscle memory that crosses over into everyday life. It is a rewarding experience that may empower young athletes to excel in their own physical education.
Have FUN!
Each class is conducted with certified instructors that walk participants through activities geared towards their unique abilities and prior experience. Each student will develop a foundational understanding of gymnastics as they experience a full range of structures and platforms in our facility. We have all of the equipment necessary on hand to ensure a safe and exciting experience each trip, creating the best experience possible for your class on each trip. We maintain an enthusiastic environment that is inclusive and motivational for everyone involved.
Safety First!
As in all activities, SAFETY should be foremost. Our coaches ensure activities are appropriate to the skill and developmental level of the children, equipment is safety approved, properly maintained and used appropriately.
