Classes
At Rising Sky Gymnastics, we offer classes for the beginner all the way to the advanced. We tailor our classes to meet every child's needs and wants so we can make sure they are challenged and progressing at their own pace. At Rising Sky, we emphasize the importance of positive feedback and confidence building. We recognize the importance of students being confident in themselves both on and off the floor. We also integrate character traits into our curriculum every week so we can help develop our students into amazing human beings. We have a smaller student to coach ratio that will ensure that your child will get adequate and efficient coaching. If a class reaches capacity, we will put you on the waitlist and reach out to you on the next available opening.
The class descriptions below are broad and do not go over in detail what your child will learn on a weekly and monthly basis. Classes run from month to month and will have a certain curriculum and lesson plans for the month. We incorporate fun and learning into every class no matter what the age.
Little Clouds is a developmental class designed for parents to work with their children. This class is 45 minutes long and for ages 18 months to 3 years old. In this class, the children work on basic motor development in the gym under the guidance and instruction of our trained coaches. Class format includes a fun warm-up, obstacle course, trampoline, equipment instruction, and supervised playtime. The kids and parents love it so come on down and play at the gym with your child! One or both parents are welcome in the class.
By age 3, boys and girls are usually ready to participate in a class without a parent’s constant interaction. Our students will have a chance to join our preschool gymnastics class which has a “more-structured” format. Our coaches like to interact with our students by having a fun warm up game, obstacle course, equipment instruction, and trampoline and airtrack time. The goal is to teach strength, flexibility and basic skills to help your child excel in what ever sport they choose to pursue! This class is 55 minutes long and offered to boys and girls from the age of 3 to 5 years old.
By age 5, boys and girls are usually ready to move out of the preschool area and into the main gym. Our students will have a chance to learn skills on the main equipment including bars, beam, floor, vault, rings, parallel bars, tumble trak, and trampoline. These classes will have structured lessons with 15-20 minute rotations on certain events during their class. The goal is to teach them the basic skills of gymnastics while teaching listening skills, strength, and coordination to help them excel through the sport. This class is 55 minutes long and offered to boys and girls from ages 5-6 years old.
The goal of our girl's gymnastics program is to teach gymnastics skills in a fun and safe environment. In addition to learning the basic gymnastics skills, your daughter will gain key development skills such as balance, coordination, and self-confidence that will help her in all areas of her life. Along with strength and flexibility training, students will work on skills on the four Olympic events: vault, uneven parallel bars, balance beam, and floor exercise. We also incorporate trampoline exercise and basic dance skills to enhance the technique of these tricks.
At Rising Sky, we offer a Recreational Gymnastics Program for girls age 7+ to teach skills at Levels 1-3. All skill development is based on the USAG Junior Olympic program and will be used to assess and place students at the appropriate level. All new students will be placed in a Level 1 class. Experienced athletes will be challenged in the Level 1 class until there is enough interest for a higher level class.
Our boy's gymnastics program also teaches gymnastics skills in a fun and safe environment. In addition to learning the basic gymnastics skills, your son will gain key development skills such as strength, coordination, and confidence that will help him in all other areas of his life.

At Rising Sky Gymnastics, we believe that all children deserve the chance to learn gymnastics. We also believe that children with special needs can still be taught the essential things, like motor skills, balance, flexibility, and strength. Our private lessons are $25 for 30 minutes or $50 for 60 minutes. Contact us today to set up a private lesson for your Special Needs child!
We at Rising Sky Gymnastics know that some students learn better in a one on one class instead of a group setting.
