Ages 6+ , Beginners, No Prerequisite Required

Level 1 builds the foundation for tumbling and cheer technique. Athletes will learn handstands, cartwheels, round-offs, forward and back rolls, backbend kickovers, front and back walkovers, and standing back handsprings.

This beginner-friendly class helps athletes develop strength, coordination, and body control while gaining confidence in basic skills. It’s the perfect starting point for anyone new to tumbling or preparing to grow into higher-level classes.

Prerequisite: Strong Level 1 Skills + Standing and/or Running Back Handspring

Skills include jumps to back handspring, back walkover back handspring, standing and running back handsprings, back handspring series, front walkover round-off back handspring, and introduction to back tucks.

This class focuses on connecting skills, improving form, and introducing more advanced techniques in a supportive and safe environment.

Advanced Tumbling Progressions

These advanced levels push athletes to refine technique, connect advanced skills, and prepare for elite performance. Each progression ensures athletes build strength and confidence while safely advancing through higher-level tumbling.
