Gymnastics at FCY

YMCA Gymnastics & Dance Classes 

Gymnastics classes for children and families focus on enhancing basic body movement, coordination, and muscle development by developing balance, strength, flexibility, agility, coordination, and endurance. The movements involved in gymnastics contribute to the development of the arms, legs, shoulders, back, chest, and abdominal muscle groups.

Our USAG-certified gymnastics Club provides gymnastics programs for individuals at all levels, from beginners to advanced. All of our gymnastics staff members are highly trained and hold certification as USAG gymnastics instructors.

Our classes are thoughtfully designed to cater to the individual needs of each child. Our gymnastics program takes into account various crucial factors, including the developmental stages of physical, emotional, social, and cognitive aspects at the time of enrollment. Each gymnast will be placed in the course corresponding to their age at the time of enrollment. In the event that their birthday falls within a session, they will be scheduled to enroll in the subsequent course during the next session. Click here to register

Parents are kindly asked to accompany their children to the Gymnastics Center door and assist them in storing their socks, shoes, coats, and any other belongings in the designated blue cubbies located outside the Gymnastics Center. Please advise your child that chewing gum is not allowed, as it poses a choking hazard. Only children are allowed inside the gymnastics room during classes. Thank you for your cooperation.

You can watch your child on the mezzanine, accessible by the staircase or elevator next to the Gymnastics Center door.
