Beginner gymnastics

What beginners work on

Beginners learn basic movements and the body positions that support them.

Class work includes forward and backward rolls, handstands, cartwheels, bridges and basic bar swings. Strength work supports those movements, while beam walks and jumps introduce balance on the apparatus. The work gives a new gymnast specific pieces to practice as skills develop.

Fundamentals first

Why gymnastics fundamentals come first

Melissa works on the parts of a cartwheel before asking a child to put them together.

Melissa works on hand placement, body position and supporting weight through the arms. Drills and stations let children practice those pieces before putting them together. She adjusts how she explains a skill because different children need different ways into the movement.
