April 9, 2010, Newsletter Issue #199: Gymnastics

Tip of the Week

Gymnastics is the foundation of all sports. Physical fitness, as well as confidence, strength, coordination, balance, body rotation, jumping, hand-eye skills, and kinesthetic awareness are improved through gymnastics. Students should be motivated in a safe, stimulating, non-competitive atmosphere.


Quality programs should follow a developmentally progressive movement curriculum that begins at or around 18 months of age, and continues on through the teenage years. Most preschoolers will benefit greatly from a structured program that is adaptable to their individual strengths.
