The goals of Beach Stars Gymnastics are to develop a child’s
fitness and athletic ability along with their self-esteem and
creativity. We are a “recreational”
gymnastics facility, focusing on the “fun” aspects of the wonderful sport of
gymnastics. Through positive teaching
techniques and encouragement, all of our gymnasts are winners! We teach them to believe in themselves,
because WE believe in them. Everyday! We teach gymnastics progressively by
breaking down skills to small components which can be learned more easily.
Then the small steps are put together, and the total skill is accomplished! .
This method helps avoid frustration, failure, and sometimes injury. So even when a skill is difficult, the
gymnast will not give up. The thrill
of eventually learning that skill has a huge impact on the student’s
self-esteem.
The preschool classes have a different theme every week, with fun
props and music (36 different themes!), including Outer Space week, Circus
Week, and Disney Week, to name just a few. We teach children the joy of movement while using their
imaginations, and that exercise can be fun and feels good; a lesson we hope
will last them a lifetime! Click here

Gymnastics is not only very beautiful to watch as well as healthy
to perform, it also forms the basis for almost every other type of athletic
sport. In fact, the Greek philosopher
Plato said that the only true forms of art are music and gymnastics. Besides being fun and healthy, gymnastics
also has the following benefits: PHYSICALLY - They learn
strength, flexibility, balance, coordination, agility, and endurance. EMOTIONALLY – It teaches
them how to feel good about themselves and their accomplishments. MENTALLY – It teaches
them how to concentrate, handle their fears and anxieties, and develop
positive attitudes towards new learning situations. SOCIALLY - It teaches
the children the importance of friendship and respect for others, and how to work
together as a group. |

TINY
TUMBLERS – ages 18 mo. – 5 years (45
minute classes) BABY STARS 18 mo. – 3 years of age (Parent
Participation) This class is
designed for the parents to interact with their child in a motor development
program. Each class is organized to provide activities to encourage
development of gross motor skills, socialization and interaction with other
students. Hand and foot eye coordination, strength, balance, physical
awareness, self-esteem and fun! TINY STARS 3-4 years & LITTLE STARS 4-5
years of age These little
gymnasts train without parents in the class. They spend much of their time
learning the basic skills of gymnastics as well as many coordination and
agility skills that will increase their ability to learn more difficult
gymnastic skills. They also begin to learn technique, straight legs, extended
positions, proper landings, and more! Each week we
have a different theme for our preschoolers! Children learn through
repetition but we make it fun and teach the basics in different ways so
children are always excited to learn! RECREATIONAL

more intermediate skills are taught improving on technique. The gymnasts will
also begin to advance to begin to combine more skills and connect them with
body elements. MEGA STARS –

enough body awareness to really begin to “tumble and fly”. BOY STARS –
