RECREATIONAL

At age 6 classes are split by gender. All Recreational Classes are 55 minutes. Olympic size equipment is used, along with fun additional equipment like trampolines, tumble track, climbing ropes etc. We use this to develop coordination, strength, agility and overall fitness. The classes are very structured and focused on proper technique. Brown’s is a part of USA Gymnastics and follows the curriculum. Each level follows certain progressions suggested by USAG. After the warm up, students will be training on up to 3 events each time they come for class.
These are developmental levels and they have not been designed with competition in mind. However, if you child is showing exceptional talent, our coaches will invite your child to consider our competitive program.
Brown’s hosts the Rainbow classic (annual show) and all students are invited to take part.
Brown’s will also host yearly team try for any girl over the age of 6. Only the best of the best will be selected based on the number of openings available.
 

Level 1 is a BEGINNERS’ level. It takes several months to overcome each level, but how fast a student progress depends on how often a student practices. Students who come 2 or more times per week, often move up faster.

Level 2-4 Require more strength, more flexibility and with that said, they also require more practicing. Learning proper gymnastics is a process. It takes months of repetition before the skill is executed correctly and safely. For this reason, we highly recommend practicing at least twice a week.

Placement
When your child is placed in a level it is based on their flexibility, strength, and current level skills on all the apparatus. A child may have higher skills on one apparatus and be below average on the others. Therefore, they are placed in the level of their lower apparatus skills to guarantee they will be in a safe environment and at a level where they feel competent.

Progress
Students who are taking 2 or more classes per week, progress faster! Advancement to the next level is based on the completion of skill/routines in the child’s current level. Your child’s coach keeps an up-to-date chart on each child. The coach can easily give you a progress report. We encourage you to talk with your child’s coach for a progress report or if you have any questions regarding your child’s training.
As their skill level increases, they will be advanced to the next level. There is really no set time frame for advancement. It depends on the child’s natural ability, number of hours of training each week, and their desire to achieve a higher skill level. We encourage at least 2 hours of training each week.

Testing for skills and advancement is done every 3 months for levels 1-3.
