Lets’ GYM aims at bringing fun and fitness to our students through movement based learning in a safe, challenging, and inspiring environment. The purpose of the Let’s Gym program is to expose and enhance development skills..Our curriculum is based on five fundamental whole child developmental categories which include cognitive, language, gross motor, fine motor and social skills. Gymnastics is a s
port that kids can begin at a young age and continue doing through their teen and college years. While some children use their talents and skills to become competitive gymnasts, others participate in the sport because they enjoy learning new skills and developing their level of fitness. With the rate of childhood obesity on the rise and more kids interested in video games and television than outdoor play, gymnastics classes offer a number of physical and social benefits.
•Gymnastics will increase strength, flexibility, endurance and coordination. These classes can help train children for any other sport they choose to pursue, as they get older.
•Social Skills- Young children will learn valuable social skills at their gymnastics classes. They will have to listen, follow directions, take turns and be respectful to each other. Children of all ages will also learn to motivate one another and compete with each other in a team atmosphere. Kids in gymnastics classes learn to perform in front of others without anxiety and build trusting, respectful relationships with their coaches and teammates
•Cognitive Benefits- Your child will need to visualize the skill he is learning before he performs it. Gymnastics provides a great way for children to use their brains and their bodies. There is a strong correlation between physically fit children and academic achievement. Nerve cells multiply, promoting healthy brain function and strengthening brain connections. The cognitive requirements of gymnastics will carry over into the classroom. The coordination necessary for gymnastics will also have an impact on cognitive abilities. Your child might be able to focus better in school when gymnastics is a part of her life.
•Character Benefits- Gymnastics lessons promote discipline, determination, courage and self-confidence, and kids will benefit from learning from their mistakes. Children persevere, even when they fall or need help to complete a skill. Self-esteem builds a gymnast's character, and those who attend classes with others will understand fairness and trust. Setting goals will become natural, and children will learn to dream big outside of the gym, as well.
