We craft our lesson plans around the September – June season. It doesn’t matter when you begin, your child is going to receive varied, challenging, and fun lessons throughout the season. With that in mind, our coaches are trained to facilitate a lesson that teaches students together as a group on skills they can all handle at that point in time. So, your child can start anytime between September and June and have a wonderful experience feeling challenged and successful while building more strength, developing more flexibility.
We do run our regular season like the school year, from September until June. You are not committed to attending the full season however the enrollment is yours if you want it for the full season. If you do not wish to continue into the next session you must notify the office in writing by week 8 of the current session.
If your schedule changes throughout the season, you can transfer your child into any open class by requesting so through the office. Since classes can remain full most of the season, we do recommend getting on waiting lists ahead of time.
No, while our online system does require credit card information to be on file, you are not charged until an official enrollment takes place. If you join a waiting list, you will be notified via email/phone if a spot opens up for your child. At that time, you can claim the spot or pass on it. If you claim the enrollment, billing will be processed at that time.
Your child should wear athletic clothing (nothing with buckles, buttons, zippers, etc). Leotards are always welcome but not mandatory. Children will enter the gym barefoot and without any jewelry on.
Usually no, we have found that placing a child into an incorrect age bracket takes away from not only the success of that child’s experience but also from that of the other students in the class. Social skills, spatial awareness, patience in waiting, among many other aspects, change dramatically from year to year, especially in the younger children. If your child’s coach feels that they could benefit from being moved up to the next age group, they will reach out to you and discuss your thoughts.
If needed, your child will stay on the waiting list all the way through Session 4 of the current season. Once Session 4 is over the waiting lists expire.
