Gymnastics & Tumbling
JCGC (Jennie's Chesapeake Gymnastics Club) offers classes for student's 18 months of age through high school. Our goal is to train our students in skills that lead to developing strength, flexibility, coordination, and endurance through the gymnastics program. Our Tumbling classes consist of one hour of instruction on the spring floor, tumble track and various mats, teaching students drills and skills to help them master basic tumbling elements. These elements include, but are not limited to, cart wheels, round offs, backbend kickovers, back walkovers and back handsprings. After basic skills are mastered, students work up to more advanced tumbling. |

Competition is an essential part of the gymnast's experiences in the program. Each gymnast will be involved in competition in accordance with her ability and age. The gymnast will then have the opportunity to advance in a step-by-step progression to higher competitive levels. Team members will have the opportunity for experiences that would normally not be available to them. The discipline, skills, accomplishments, and friendships will carry over in many of life's endeavors.
