Adult Gymnastics

You’re never too old to start! Stretching, jumping, running and tumbling are all part of an overall physical agenda that can reduce the risk of many diseases. Conducted by safety-certified instructors, this is an excellent opportunity to avoid the “standard gym” and get in shape learning how to tumble, flip, swing and come as close to self-powered flight as possible in a comfortable environment. Begin the class with a warm-up period and then work with an instructor at your own level from basic to advanced skills.
