Basics and fundamentals are essential to the sport of gymnastics. Level 1 is designed for the beginner gymnast. In addition to learning basic skills on all four events; Vault, Bars, Beam and Floor, level 1 gymnasts learn the importance of muscular strength, flexibility, balance, and coordination. On average gymnasts remain in level 1 for 3 to 4 sessions prior to advancing to level 2 simply due to the vast amount of skills required mastering prior to movement.
Advancing skills past the basic level requires strong fundamentals and proper shaping. Level 2 continues to refine skills learned in Level 1 while focusing on introducing new skill progression on each event. Skills are broken down using drill station so gymnasts are able to learn shapes required to master each phase of the skill when performing. The skills taught in Level 2 on average take a minimum of 4 sessions to master. Pre-requisites are required for advancement.
Refinement is the focus of Level 3 and 4 when it comes to previously taught skills. Level 1 and 2 skills are still continued to be reviewed and required to be performed using correct technique as it is crucial when progressing to new skills. Level 3 skills will be taught at the pace of the gymnast and progressed through Level 4 skills. Skills are limitless at this level as the class can be individualized based on what the gymnasts are capable of. At this level, depending on their ability and interest PREP team may be offered to them as the next step in their gymnastic journey.
