Recreational Gymnastics

Our recreational program is a progressive program where the students learn super fun body strengthening exercises, flexibility activities, and basic gymnastics skills in a wild, yet structured atmosphere. Gymnastics is the fundamental background for overall fitness and serves as a stepping stone for any other athletics your child may wish to pursue in the future. We offer a safe, fun, age appropriate environment for each child to develop their own skills.

Our mission here at OOA Gymnastics is to build healthy, happy, responsible children offering them a positive experience they can benefit from throughout their lives. Our OOA girls and boys gymnastics programs are based and structured on the U.S.A.G. curriculum. The skills of tumbling, swinging, balancing, jumping, rhythm, and eye-hand coordination are all included in our eight week session of gymnastics. Some of the psychological qualities that are developed through the sport of gymnastics are: high self-esteem, physical courage, determination, perseverance, expressiveness and self confidence.
