Advancement is not all about ability we focus on the best placement for each child and family, one that fits their goals and their emotional and physical development, as well as scheduling and social considerations. Good luck was said to be signaled by clearing a candle without extinguishing the flame. Instructors evaluate students during each class and keep a record of skills achieved and those still needing improvement.Īdvancement to either a higher level class or team eligibility is discussed by instructors with parents when the student has mastered all foundational skills in a level and is ready to safely learn more advanced skills. Monday, FebruJACK BE NIMBLE (February 2014) 'In the mid-nineteenth century, jumping candlesticks was a form of fortune telling and a sport. Our classes are designed to group students of compatible developmental and skill levels so all students have the advantage of peer support and can work on similar skills together.
We focus on non-competitive gymnastics and helping each child reach their personal potential. I had three months in a normal gymnastics type setting, so in the meantime, I've already been taught many drills and conditioning exercises that I can continue to work on, and there are a few skills which-while not perfect and need work-I know well enough that they are not dangerous to perform at a gym.Our goal is to make every student feel successful regardless of age or ability. I have a healthy dose of fear and do not attempt new skills without having spent months on drills for the skill and knowing that I can attempt it safely (with spotters, etc). If I wasn't unemployed and in debt from my student loans, then I'd gladly get an experienced gymnastics coach, but for the next several months I'm happy to slowly progress and get stronger with what is available to me, right now.

I'm going to a free open gym type class, where I do have spotters and the typical mats that will prevent me from getting hurt.

For front tucks, I could easily solve this by putting blocks up for me to jump over, but I don't know how to do this for back tucks. Rationally, I think the answer is just to wait before tucking, but I need a way to teach my body how to do this.

Obviously, I think this will make getting my back tuck on flat ground much more difficult, and I don't want to code the wrong movement. However, after looking at a video of myself trying the back tuck, I realized that I appear to rotate too early-I don't seem to wait long enough before beginning my tuck. I do a good job of not throwing my head back, rotating (I think), and committing to the tuck. My spotter claims that they barely touch me, and I land the back tuck on my feet. Fun props including scarves, bean bags, and hoops and equipment such as mats and balance beam are utilized. I'm beginning by jumping off of a high mat onto a low mat.
