Rising Stars is a 60-minute, Invite-Only class for children motivated to learn and willing to work hard to progress in strength, flexibility, and gymnastics skills. Due to the class dynamics, extra time is spent on strength and conditioning, and skill progressions are accelerated. Students have more time to work on drills, which gives them a better understanding of each skill and allows them to perfect it more effectively.
What skills you will learn?
- Master foundational skills like kick to handstand flatback, pullover, casts, cartwheel, and bridge kickover
- Develop beam skills including lever, walks on high beam, handstands, and dismounts
- Advance on bars with chin-up pullovers, cast back hip circles, sole circle dismounts, and squat-ons
- Build tumbling power with round-offs, back handsprings, front handsprings, and straight-arm backward rolls
This class is Invitation Only. If you are interested in more info, please submit a request to: [email protected]
