Most classes are 40 minutes to 50 minutes long. We run classes on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays at 3:50, 4:50, & 5:50pm. Most students start out by attending 1 day per week.
What does a typical lesson look like? Each class begins with a Warm Up & Stretch. Afterwards students go to their 1st event. Each class the students will have a lesson on 3 different apparatus. (Floor, Bars, Beam, Trampoline, or Vault). We always end practice with a fun finish which can consist of games, jumping in the pit, climbing the rope etc.
