RECREATIONAL GYMNASTICS CLASSES
Boys & Girls – Ages 7 years through High School

Our non-competitive gymnastics program is a great tool for achieving our primary aim of building happy, healthy, confident children. We do this by carefully designing our curriculum and teaching methods around a single underlying philosophy…”Nothing is more important than your child’s self-esteem.” This approach is what has made SGA the most popular children’s program in the Siouxland area for over thirty years!

Kids are always grouped by age and ability. Our student to teacher ratios are kept at 8 to 1 or lower to ensure that your child gets the most out of his/her gymnastics experience. Children advance through our program at a completely individual rate. This means that when someone is ready to move up, they are promoted as an individual rather than as a class.

SGA girls, known as Kinkajous (7-8 year olds) or Karma Chameleons (9 and older) receive instruction on all of the Olympic events, vault, uneven bars, balance beam and floor exercise. They also spend time using our in-ground trampolines, rod floors and ever-popular foam pits. We have found that there is a delicate balance between an evaluation program which is too rigid and one which lacks meaning. We strive to achieve this balance by making it flexible enough to reward small increments of learning, as well as being able to recognize true excellence.

For the maturing young man at SGA we have found that many are looking at gymnastics as a vehicle to achieve goals in other sports in addition to learning good, basic gymnastics. So, we created our boys-only Tumbling, Strength and Flexibility program or Jungle Rumblers. Class curriculum includes tumbling skills and progressions on our popular in-ground trampolines, spring floor and foam-filled pits. Strength and flexibility are incorporated through the use of gymnastics skills and conditioning.
