Skill of the Month:   Supports    

  

Being able to support our body weight is essential in proper physical development.  Being able to support our body weight on different gymnastic apparatus is essential for our gymnastic skills.  For the month of March we will be working on supporting our body weight in different  supports (front, side, and rear).   

 

Stay tuned.  Early Registration for the 2013/2014 Recreational year will be held in May 2013!

Make-up Policy Reminders:  

 Tuition is not pro-rated for absences. Therefore, offering a make-up is a courtesy we extend to you.  Students are eligible to make-up one class within 30 days as long as tuition and fees are up-to-date.  Make-ups are held on Saturdays and sign-ups are required.  Spaces are limited and not guaranteed.  They may not be "saved up" and taken as a free class at a later time.  A scheduled make-up will be counted if we are not notified 24 hours in advance that you are canceling.  If you know your child will miss, please make arrangements ahead of time to make it up. 

 

 

Make-ups are not held for classes that meet 1 1/2 hours or more per week.  This has been factored into your class tuition rate.
