One of the best things about The Discovery Gym is the Fall Tour and the chance for your Tumbler or AcroGymnast to "show off" for the community.

Tumble Weeds, Tumble Tykes, and AcroGymnastics Levels are invited to participate in a demonstration of skills at two local festivals:

The New Freedom Fest is on Sat Sept 19

The Shrewsbury Fall Fest is on Sat Oct 3

To sign up, sign your child’s name to the list in the Café, email KathyJones@danceEMC.com or sign up in your SP portal.

The Fall Tour Demos are optional, hassle-free and don’t require additional rehearsals or fees.

A minimum number of participants are required in order for us to run the demonstration, so if you sign up, please make it a priority and follow through.

This is the perfect opportunity for family and friends to come out, enjoy an afternoon together and cheer on your Tumbler or AcroGymnast.
