Desert Devils Gymnastics is dedicated to helping your child to reach the highest level of their abilities. We have new equipment, including new beams, bar stations, and six trampolines. Classes are held with a 6-students-to-1-coach ratio.
Desert Devils uses a rotation program for its recreational classes that will keep your child active throughout their class time learning new skills and developing their strength, flexibility and aerobic endurance. We are focused on providing the highest quality of developmental gymnastics and tumbling.
Desert Devils offers an exceptional boy's recreational gymnastics program. Our recreational gymnasts will spend each class time working on the following events:
- Floor Exercise: Gymnasts are working on balance, flexibility, and strength. They learn basic somersaults, acrobatic skills, handstand and cartwheels along with dance elemnts and stretching techniques.
- Vault: Gymnasts apply a great deal of coordination as they run and jump from a spring board to a two footed landing.
- Trampoline: Gymnasts perform jumping and twisting on a spring bed. Trampolines also teach spatial awareness and can be a great aerobic workout.
- Rings: Gymnasts and tots use a series of basic acrobatic movements on the rings. This is an excellent appartus to develop a child's core and upper-body strength. They will learn to perform basic swings, circles, and isometric holds.
