Boys Events Classes

All Beginner Classes are Designated as Co-Ed; however, there are several classes designated as Boys only in which only the 6 Men's Olympic Events are instructed.  However, girls are also welcome to register for these classes.  Women's events such as Balance Beam are not included in this class.  Gymnastics  instruction in these classes includes skills on the six Olympic events for men: floor, pommel horse, rings, vault, parallel bars, and high bar in a class style structured just for the needs of energetic boys! Students also work on strength, fitness, and coordination that will help in every other sport.
