Tumbling Program
Our Tumbling
Program is for children age 6 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 especially 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,
