TIGERS PLUS 7-8 YRS

Clean form, connected skills, and confident execution

In this upbeat 60-minute class, kids fine-tune their technique, learn to connect skills, and take on exciting new challenges across all events.

​

From one-handed cartwheels to front hip circles and dive rolls, our coaches focus on refining form, building body awareness, and boosting each child’s confidence — all while keeping the vibe positive and fun.

​

Through coach-led circuits and individualized feedback, your child will grow in:

​

  • Strength, flexibility, and stamina for advanced movement

  • Precision, timing, and connection between skills

  • Confidence approaching new challenges with focus and joy

​

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

​

Tigers Plus prerequisite = Gymnasts who’ve completed three consecutive Tigers sessions

What To Expect:

Dynamic Warm-Up & Stretch

We kick things off with a dynamic warm-up and stretch routine that gets bodies ready for action and minds set on the class ahead. Coaches lead targeted exercises to activate key muscle groups while emphasizing strength, flexibility, and body control — essential ingredients for mastering intermediate-level skills.

Skill Stations:

Bars, Beam, and Trampoline/Floor

After warm-up, gymnasts rotate through coach-led stations on Bars, Beam, and Trampoline/Floor. Each station is structured around that week’s focus and tailored to challenge each athlete at their level. Students work on skills like backbend kickovers, roundoffs, front hip circles, and complex jumps — all with an emphasis on clean form, connected movement, and personal progress. Coaches provide individualized feedback while encouraging effort, independence, and perseverance.

Wrap-Up & Reflection

Every class ends with positive reinforcement. Gymnasts regroup for stickers and a quick debrief with their coach to highlight what they accomplished and set goals for next time. These moments build coach-athlete connection, celebrate progress, and support a growth mindset.
