Introducing: our after-school pickup! This program collects your kids from school and provides them with a snack, one hour of kid’s gymnastics lessons, homework time, and saves you time and stress from rushing and waiting in traffic. This is a great way for them to get their energy out, learn a new skill, and make new friends along the way.
Everyday Stress
In today’s world parents are busier than ever juggling work with caring for their children. Picking up kids after school can be very stressful, in which parents must fight traffic to hurry to pick their kids up after school, with being late putting your kids at risk of waiting by themselves for a long time. On top of this, they are spending even more time taking them to other extracurricular activities, as well as helping them with their homework. Fortunately, we have alleviated all of these stressors into one program that will greatly benefit you and your child.

What to Wear to Kid’s Gymnastics Class
Leotards without skirts are preferred for girls while boys can wear gym shorts with a shirt tucked in. All clothing should be soft and flexible, and we have a pro shop on-site if your child needs either of these. Some of our students perform barefoot, while others prefer to wear gymnastics socks, and all shoes should be placed in cubbies before class. Hair should be tied back and out of the face for safety, and jewelry cannot be worn during class. We also advise that kids bring a water bottle and snack each day.
Benefits of a Pickup Program
Parents and kids alike will benefit from this kid’s gymnastics after-school pickup program. Parents can significantly reduce the stress and worry of rushing to school when it ends to pick up their kids, alongside saving a lot of time from being stuck in the pickup line. For the kids, they are able to build friendships with their fellow gymnasts, thus developing highly important communication skills and community from an early age. They can also lean on each other to work on their homework during the allotted time for this. And to top it off, they’re learning a new skill that will help get their energy out, build self-confidence, and teach perseverance that will last a lifetime.
