Tumbling Program

   Our Tumbling Program is for children age 7 and up who wish to learn or practice tumbling skills on floor and trampoline only. This program is ideal for cheerleaders or dancers.

   All participating students are instructed through techniques which have been developed and perfected by TWIGS Gymnastics over its 35 year history; including our unique approach to teaching back-handsprings. This approach is based on our "four phases of a back-handspring" concept which is a step by step teaching method allowing every student to work on any number of "phases" using appropriate equipment and drill stations. This method has led to thousands of successful back-handspring achievements.

   There are five different classes within our tumbling program.  Most students will begin in the Tumblers class; students who are able to perform a back-handspring on a trampoline without a spot will be in our Flippers class. Once your child is able to perform a round-off back-handspring on our gym floor, they will then be placed in the Twisters class. Our fourth group is our Elite group with students who have either achieved or are working on full twisting somersault skills. Our last class works exclusively with students who wish to practice their standing tuck skills only. The Tumbling Program also instructs students from our TWIGS Cheer Magic team in their gymnastics oriented skills.

   All of the Tumbling classes are listed below. If you would like to view the Tumbling/Cheer schedule, click here.
