Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Do you offer ongoing open registration?
A: Yes! We fill our classes on a first-come, first-served basis. Therefore, you may register into your preferred class time if there are openings. (Current students receive registration information prior to wide-spread mail-outs, but are not offered priority registration or automatic re-enrollment.)  Download a registration form by clicking here.

Q: When can I enroll in the next session?
A: You can enroll at ANY time for any open class. Just call the gym to check availability for the days and times you prefer. (Tuition will be prorated from your start date if you join any session currently in progress.)

Q: How do we register for a class?
A: We cannot “hold” a spot or put your child(ren) into any of our classes without the following:
Annual Registration Fee, Class and/or Event Tuition, and a Signed Waiver. Once all three items are received, your child will be put into a class.

Q: What age can my child start your program?
A: We begin gymnastics at 2 years old. This is preschool gymnastics that focuses on motor development. We continue through age 18.

Q: Why should my child take gymnastics? What are the benefits?
A: Gymnastics helps to increase muscular strength, flexibility, coordination, endurance, and agility. It also gives children an awareness of relationships to other students and coaches. Children also learn the joy of movement mastery, discipline, self control, a confident self-image, a positive attitude towards their bodies, and trust in their own abilities. They also learn that exercise can be a pleasurable experience.

Q: Do you offer any discounts/specials?
A: Yes! We offer several discounts and specials. Discounts: We offer a 10% discount for siblings living in the same household. (Full price on first child, discount applied to each additional child.) We offer a 10% discount for children enrolled in more than one class per month. (Full price on first class, discount applied to each additional class.)
Specials: We always offer referral credit of $10 to any NEW gymnast or cheerleader that you refer to our gym. The NEW student must write your name on their registration form and submit it along with their registration fee and tuition. There is no limit to the number of referral credits you can receive. We also periodically offer registration at ½ off or free. Please call for more details.

Q: Do you offer any options for fundraising?
A: Yes! We offer lots of opportunities throughout the year for fundraising. This is done for your individual account, not for the gym. We offer several options, including but not limited to, pizza kits, cookie dough, pecans, etc.

Q: Is fundraising required?
A: No. We offer fundraising to help you out! We understand the ever-increasing cost of raising a child involved in sports. The money you raise goes into your account to help pay for monthly fees and other qualifying gym expenses including, but not limited to uniforms, gymnastics camps and meet fees.

Q: How does my child progress in your program?
A: When you register your child for our classes, they are entered into one of our recreational levels. Once the student “checks-off” the skills required on each apparatus for that particular level, they will be invited to move up to the next level (i.e. intermediate, level 2, level 3, etc). Each Rec. Level will have Skill Posters hung up in the gym. The instructors will update these posters daily to ensure accuracy within our recreational program and keep you informed of your child’s progress. Once a student completes the entire list of skills, they will receive a letter, informing you of the need to update your registration. (If students move up to a new level and you’ve already registered for the next session, we’ll just ask you to pay the difference in class tuition.) WE WILL NOT AUTOMATICALLY UPDATE YOUR REGISTRATION. Please feel free to contact your child’s instructor with any questions, comments, and concerns you might have! Please click here to see a list of skills required at each level.

Q: Do you have a competitive gymnastics team?
A: Yes, we offer competitive gymnastics beginning with Level 2. Qualified students are invited to join our team throughout the year. The head coach will notify you when your child is ready to progress to this level.

Q: At what level will my child compete?
A: We offer the option to compete at Level 2 in the AAU division. At Level 3, your child will compete in either AAU or USAG or both. At Levels 4 & up, your child will compete in USAG.

Q: How do I withdraw my child from a session?
A: In order to withdraw your child from our program, you must give a 30-day written notice. Your financial obligation will end 30 days from the receipt of notice. Lack of attendance does not constitute withdrawal.

Q: What are monthly fees and when are they due?
A: Monthly fees are due on the 1st day of the month. A late fee of $15 is added after the 10th. A $25 fee will be charged for all returned checks. We do not accept credit cards at this time. Please call our facility for an updated price list.

Q: What is the difference between cheernastics and gymnastics?
