TNT’s recreational gymnastics program is a great atmosphere for kids of all ages and abilities to succeed.  Gymnastics is beneficial for each child to develop physically and mentally focusing on balance, coordination, and flexibility, thereby building strong bones and muscles.  We also encourage students to work towards their own Personal Best, gaining confidence and a sense of positive well-being while participating in our classes. 
 
All coaches are CPR and First Aid certified for your child's safety needs, and trained as former/current gymnasts to show techniques correctly.  Your child will receive more individualized attention due to our desire to keep student to coach ratios low.
 
All classes run for 9 week session.  Parents are able to watch classes from a viewing area in the gym.  The last week of the session is Parent’s Week where everyone can come to see what their child has learned the past 9 weeks of class, and each child will receive  recognition for their participation.
 
Making friends & having fun while learning is the most important component at TNT!
