TIGERS PLUS 5-6 YRS

More precision, more focus — same playful energy

This 60-minute intermediate class is for gymnasts who’ve completed at least three full Tigers sessions and are ready for a bit more challenge. With a focus on cleaner technique and stronger body control, kids revisit core skills like handstands, cartwheels, and pullovers — but with advanced drills and thoughtful feedback that help them grow.

​

We keep it fun, supportive, and individualized. Gymnasts explore more detailed form, build strength and flexibility, and learn how to fine-tune the skills they already love.

​

Tigers Plus classes are open to all genders and led by USAG-certified coaches in an all-bodies-welcome environment that values growth over perfection.

​

Tigers Plus prerequisite = completion of at least three consecutive Tigers sessions

What To Expect:

Dynamic Warm-Up & Stretch

Each class begins with a dynamic warm-up and deeper stretch sequence to prep bodies for more demanding skills. We introduce more targeted drills to support strength, flexibility, and body control — all essential for intermediate-level progress.

Skill Stations:

Bars, Beam, and Trampoline/Floor

Gymnasts rotate through focused event stations built around the weekly skill theme — from refining pullovers and levers to sharpening roundoffs and improving beam transitions. Stations include more technical progressions, allowing gymnasts to practice form, control, and execution at a higher level. Coaches offer hands-on support and feedback tailored to each gymnast’s needs, helping them fine-tune details and build consistency with greater independence.

Wrap-Up & Reflection

Classes end with stickers and a coach-led recap, where gymnasts reflect on what they worked on, what they’re proud of, and where they want to grow. These wrap-ups reinforce ownership, self-confidence, and athlete-coach connection.

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.
