Gymnastics is about how the body moves. Early participation in gymnastics develops our most fundamental movement skills. We develop the ability to confidently and efficiently move in any environment that is a physical challenge. Being able to move skillfully sets the foundation for enjoying physical activity. This foundation carries forward far beyond sports participation into healthy active lifestyles. Gymnastics also promotes healthy growth and development by building strong bones and muscles, increasing flexibility, developing good posture and balance, and promoting a healthy weight. These benefits can last a lifetime.
Think of the building blocks of athleticism as primary colors which can be blended together to create other athletic components. Early specialization is one of the most significant issues facing the development of young athletes because it robs them of primary motor pattern development. This limits athletic potential, increases injury risk, and may lead to burnout. Gymnastics at C.I.T.Y. Club is unparalleled in its ability to develop athleticism and can be introduced shortly after a child gains the ability to walk. Our programming will create the foundation for children to build future athletic skills, regardless of their ultimate sport.
