Whiz Kids: 4½ - 6 years Children thrive as they work on gross motor skills such as running, jumping, hopping, skipping, throwing, kicking and catching. This class is specifically designed to build confidence, develop perseverance, increase self-control and ready our Whiz Kids for group sports. Maintaining a supportive, noncompetitive atmosphere is key in reaching this goal. Children who learn to enjoy physical activity and sports at this age are much more likely to remain active and benefit from a healthy lifestyle.

Champions: 6 - 8 years Self-esteem and learning to work toward goals are priorities for our Champions. Emphasis is placed on effort, diligence, fair play and teamwork while practicing gymnastics and sports skills. Our exceptionally low teacher-to-student ratio allows our members to reach their maximum potential. Children are coached according to their own skill level in an environment that enhances ability and builds self-esteem.

Cardio Kids: 8-13 years Building confidence and self-esteem is still our highest priority, as we help your children increase their endurance and gross motor skills. This demanding but emotionally supportive program combines a cardio workout with strength and flexibility exercises. We focus on specific muscle groups, utilize a circuit-training course, play games and add fun nutritional tips. Cardio Kids enhance their strength and conditioning while developing a healthy lifestyle. Our goal is to instill health and fitness as a way of life.
