Philosophy
- The objective of this program is to provide an
affordable quality gymnastics experience for daycare
and school organizations.
Structure
- Although it is recommended that students take
part in our 14-level 'CanGym' Burgundy through Gold
award system, not all groups may want to attend the
required ten classes. Groups who do not wish to take
part in the medallion
program will be instructed according to the same curriculum
as those who do, but without the awards. A 10 to 1 student/teacher
ratio provides a lower cost without sacrificing the
quality of instruction - care providers are encouraged
to assist our instructors. Instruction is provided on
all Olympic gymnastics events plus trampoline.
Accomplishment
- Progress reports are provided to students upon
fitness assessments dates, followed by presentation
of our 'CanGym' medallions (if this option is chosen).
The actual medallion is Gold in colour while the colour
of the sticker represents progress being made. Each
time a student receives an award (Step 1, Step 2, or
Mastered) he/she has the opportunity to either:
a) advance within a color/level or
b) move on to the next color/level.
Within each level there are an average of 36 gymnastics
skills that are distributed among the floor exercise,
rings,vault, parallel and uneven bars, high bar, trampoline,
pommel horse, and balance beam. These skills progress
in their complexity as students master each successive
medallion. Note: The school retains records on the progress
of each student to assist in class placement in future
sessions.
