Gym Explorer is a 90 minute class once per week which provides for either an introduction to artistic gymnastics or an extension to what has been learned in our Gym Start program.
In the explorer class we increase the time on each apparatus to allow greater detail in teaching and additional time for practice. Children will experience accelerated learning and enjoy attending the Delta Carnivals where they can show their parents their improved skills and body control.
This class also provides for a time set aside for children to be introduced to physical preparation in which general stretching, basic postural training and simple strength activities are taught correctly and practiced.
It is our goal from the Explorer program that children who love doing gymnastics will be challenged to grow and develop, while other children will be given the fundamental movement skills that will help them feel confident and competent to go on to try other sports.
