This class is designed for children 4.5 to 5.5 years old. The children are without their parents in the gym. Most of the children by this age have had some structured environment, or have been away from parents with an adult they are not familiar with. We still have some shyness from some of our students, but for the most part it passes quickly once they see all the "fun" stuff they get to do. Normally the first day of the child's class is learning that the gym and the teacher are fun. There may be children younger than above in this class, if they have already participated in the previous level and passed their skill evaluation sheet. The class will learn basic tumbling skills on the floor, balance skills on the beam, strength moves on the bars, basic vaults on the mini vault, basic jumps on the tumble-track, and work on upper body strength and coordination with our rock wall, ropes to swing and climb on, and a big foam pit to try and crawl out of. Near the end of the session your child will receive a skill evaluation sheet for this level. This is a way of communicating to parents what your child's strengths and weaknesses are at this time. Once they have passed their required skills in Mighty Tots, girls will move on to our next level called Mini-Rollers or Rollers, and boys will progress to Beginner Boys. |
