First Flips Gymnastics! is a revolutionary approach to recreational gymnastics fitness in a non-competitive environment. The focus of our programs is be to develop the child into the best person he/she can be without the pressure of competition or intensity to perform.
The purpose of our preschool program is to provide children, under the age of six, with productively positive experiences within a physical environment that is structured and stimulating. These learning experiences will help your child develop their physical and mental capabilities. They will learn skills that will enable them to better relate to the complete environment around them.
The purpose of our other programs are very similar in nature. Our goal is to grow with your child as they maneuver through their formative years and develop their own sense of independence and curiosity. The basic format of our programs is a combination of general movement education and skills specific to learning gymnastics. Many of the elementary skills taught in our programs are fundamental to the development of all sport-type activities thus enabling your child to take them with them and benefit from all their hard work. These skills are valuable aids in a child’s growth as he/she learns about the physical world surrounding them while promoting fun and fitness.
One of our most important goals is to provide your children with a positive learning setting. This experience will help them develop self-confidence. The main goal is to provide a positive, opportunity-filled environment where they can become familiar with their potentials, limitations, and where they can develop willingness to attempt new and challenging tasks. This friendly, rich environment will build confidence and healthy self-image. We will do this by creating a situation where there is constant encouragement through verbal praise, giving each child a feeling of continued success. Recognizing that for many children the attempt is the goal rather than the actual completed task, the praise is given to them for their attempt to perform the task, rather then the actual completed task. This is one of the most important contributions that can be made during the formative years of growth and development in your child’s life.
I hope we have peaked your curiosity enough that you will stop by, take a look at what we have to offer, join us and…
And as always, we thank you for your continued support!
