Shooting Stars
Shooting Stars
Shooting Stars is a more advanced gymnastics class for athletes ages 7 and up. In our Shooting Stars class, athletes will improve on the skills they learned in our Rising Stars class. Our coaches will incorporate drills and progressions that guide the athletes to master new skills at every event. The class emphasizes the importance of strength, flexibility, form, and proper technique.
The Goal
In addition to increasing athletes strength and flexibility, one of the goals of this class is to instill some of the life skills learned through gymnastics including discipline, self-confidence, respect, and perseverance. After mastering the skills for the Shooting Stars class, athletes are invited into our Super Stars Class.
