Gymnastics is good for your child!

As a parent, you are doing wonderful things for your child by enrolling them in gymnastics. Study after study confirms that children enrolled in sports (including gymnastics) are more likely to avoid drugs, score higher on achievement tests, stay in school, have higher self esteem, and live a healthier life style. The children in gymnastics not only learn motor skills, but interpersonal skills, perseverance, discipline, commitment, humor, perspective, teamwork, humility and leadership. So be sure to give yourself a pat on the back for helping your child be more successful in life!

This lesson focuses on the peanut ball for forward rolling skills, back limbers and strength training. It's a bit hit with the children since it's so much fun!
