ACES Gymnastics

Gymnastics:

Classes will follow the same format as recreational classes:

1. Warm-up

2. Lines (during lines coaches will split participants into appropriate levels, generally Kindergym through Level 2 (ish)

3. Events

4. Brief Stretching

5. Rotations

Coaches need to maintain groups of seven or less, and provide a structured class environment. Classes should look very much like a standard gymnastics class.

Making groups based on ability:

• Figure out the skill level of your participants.

  1. • The special concerns sheet should have a suggested level for each participant, or you may know from standard classes.

     • If this information is not available, ask participants about their level of experience with gymnastics. For example, "raise your hand if  you have never done gymnastics," or "a little bit of gymnastics."

• Split into groups based on experience that approximately match recreational gymnastics levels. Each group should have an instructor to help them develop their gymnasts skills throughout the day.
