At Tumblrz we offer an outstanding minis program that is specially designed for the 3 to 6 year old tumbler. Our challenging and fun program focuses on various aspects of the child’s physical, mental, and social development while having lots of fun! We begin with a foundation of gymnastics to build strength, flexibility, coordination, and endurance. Your child will learn various skills through movement such as balance and concentration when working on the beam. They will test their strength when learning basic gymnastics skills such as forward rolls and cartwheels. This sets the groundwork for moving into more advanced tumbling and gymnastics skills when they are older but not only that, these skills when started young tend to promote healthy growth and development that will follow them well into adulthood.
At Tumblrz, learning opportunities are pushed to the next level when we incorporate colors, shapes, and numbers along with using hand, eye, and foot coordination. By combining the physical and mental aspect we are able to promote the development of the child’s neurological pathways, positively effecting mood, memory, attention span, and behavior.
We offer so much more than gymnastics!
The multitude of skills learned in our minis tumbling program are endless! Your child will learn how to take turns, follow directions, and to respect others and their space. All of this allows the child to learn social interactions and build confidence. We know some children may be timid when trying new things. We offer a fun and welcoming environment and we are confident that your child will have a great time!
