Tumbling / Trampoline
Tumbling is a great sport to improve motor skills and coordination. It can enhance performance in other sports including karate, cheerleading, diving and gymnastics. The focus of tumbling classes is primarily on the development of tumbling skills.
Trampoline is an important and necessary component of the development of both basic and advanced tumbling skills. Time spent on trampoline will focus on the development of tumbling skills as per the USAG Tumbling guidelines. Time will also be spent on strength and flexibility training to aid in the development of tumbling skills and to ensure the overall safety of the student.
