TIGERS 7-8 YRS

Focused practice, fun energy, and steady growth

In this 60-minute class, gymnasts build on the basics while continuing to explore all four Olympic events. With plenty of encouragement and personalized support, kids practice new shapes, refine their form, and try multi-step skills at a pace that feels just right.

 

Through coach-led circuits and guided skill stations, your child will grow in:

​

  • Strength, coordination, and body awareness

  • Focus, balance, and movement control

  • Confidence trying new things and taking pride in their progress

  • ​

Tigers classes are open to all genders and led by USAG-certified coaches in a welcoming, all-bodies-friendly space. Whether it’s their first session or their fourth, this class helps kids feel successful, supported, and excited to come back each week.

​

Beginner = fewer than 3 full Tigers sessions.

Winter Session Registration Dates:

​

Priority Registration (for currently registered families): October 13th - 20th

What To Expect:

Dynamic Warm-Up & Stretch

We kick things off with a dynamic warm-up and stretch routine that gets our bodies ready for action and our minds set on the class ahead. Coaches will lead exercises to engage and activate the muscles while focusing on strength, flexibility, and body control.

Skill Stations:

Bars, Beam, and Trampoline/Floor

Students rotate through our coach-led stations on Bars, Beam, and Trampoline/ Floor. Each station features drills tailored to their ability level, challenging them with progressively advanced skills such as backbend kickovers, roundoffs, and complex jumps. With a focus on proper form, each station builds strength, coordination, and precision while encouraging personal growth and resilience.

Wrap-Up & Reflection

Every class wraps up with positive reinforcement. Gymnasts receive stickers, along with a chat from their coach about their progress, what they've achieved, and where they can grow in the next lesson.

The IG Conditioning Challenge

Elevate your abilities, boost your strength, and enhance your flexibility

Here's How It Works:

​

Gymnasts will embark on a journey of mini-workouts designed to be completed comfortably in approximately 10 minutes each. There's no need to rush; take your time and enjoy the process.

​

After you've successfully completed each workout, simply mark it off on our tracker. Once you've accomplished three workouts every week, for a total of four weeks, submit your tracker to our front desk at the end of the month.

​

As a token of your accomplishment, you'll be awarded a special achievement band! But that's not all – you have the opportunity to collect all ten dazzling colors from September to June.

​

Get ready for an incredible experience of growth and achievement!
