athletes that practice once per week for 45 minutes. This class works on beginner
trampoline skills and safety skills. Tumbling skills, such as rolls, handstands, and
cartwheels are taught using special preschool mats and stations. Our Bounders T&T
class is designed for our 5-6 year old athletes that can practice once per week for 45
minutes. They also practice beginner trampoline and tumbling skills to develop muscle
memory, strength, and flexibility.
skills such as certain types of bounces, jumps and aerial positions. Tumbling skills will begin to
include roundoffs, and progressions for the backhandspring. Students will begin to combine skills
together to form routines. This class is for athletes who are between 7 and 10 years old. Ask about
our BOYS ONLY Flippers class designed just for the guys!
consecutive tumbling skill combinations, including backhandsprings, and forward tumbling
skills such as the punch front and barani. Power is very important, as the tumbling passes
begin without a run, and must be initiated from a power hurdle. We encourage athletes to
perfect their snap down, set, tumbling rhythm and positions during skill performances. On
trampoline events, athletes will begin to perform multiple somersault rotations, for example: an
athlete will work on combining a back tuck to front tuck, or back tuck to barani tuck, all of which
require great space awareness. Performing skills such as these will enable athletes to jump
consistently and increase the athletes swing time (the ability to move smoothly from one skill
to another during a trampoline routine). Athletes in this class practice for one hour once per
week. All skills are perfected with a spotter or performed into the pit until the athlete is able to
perform the skill independently and safely.

would be like to practice with our competition team and compete. Athletes must try out
for a position on our team and team evaluations are held during July through December of
each year. While an athlete is awaiting an evaluation, he can get a jump start by
practicing at this time to learn all of the skills necessary for competition. Athletes will
begin to learn and perform routines on all three events to see at which level they could
begin competition. Some may start off as high as Level 4 or Level 6. This class is for
serious athletes that really want to compete, are between the ages of 6 years and 12
years, and can be available to practice once a week for one hour.
