  Preschool Gymnastics -
 

The Movement Ed/Preschool Gymnastics Program is structured to help participants develop self-confidence, self-respect and an appreciation of their own worth as individuals. We provide a safe and supportive environment in which to build a child's self-esteem. We feel that everyone should have the opportunity to be involved at some level. We strongly try to implement the character development of the YMCA by including the values of respect, responsibility, caring, and honesty in the programs. Above all, everyone should have fun while being given the challenge to increase skills in both physical and mental development. Due to the nature of progressions and class ratios, we are not able to offer makeup classes in gymnastics.
