Frequently Asked Questions
At what age can my child start in Gymnastics?
We start children right when they start walking. Our motto is the sooner the better to get children into something that will teach them great life skills, wonderful coordination, confidence in their daily lives, and something they will just completely fall in love with.
How do I enroll my child?
We offer online registration through our parent portal. Check out our Registration link at the top and it will direct you right to the site. Or feel free to give us a call and we can get you set up over the phone as well.
How much is the registration fee?
The registration is an annual $50 fee that we charge upon enrollment. That enrollment month will then become your anniversary month for your registration fee. This is due for each child upon enrollment.
Do you offer a free trial class?
For any girl ages 6 and up, we offer a free skill evaluation. During this evaluation, your child will be assessed and placed in the correct class for them to be the most successful. We do this to have the opportunity to meet each child that walks into our program and get the chance to meet each family as well. We strive to keep our business family oriented. As for our younger aged children and our boys, we do offer a free trail class for these children to make sure they are happy and successful in their aged classes.
What should my child wear to class?
We have plenty of leos in our AE Pro Shop if your daughter would like to wear a leo, but it is not required. We do ask that they wear comfy clothes with no buttons or zippers for their safety. As for boys, shorts and a T-shirt works best. We also require hair to be pulled out of their faces for safety purposes.
What do I do during my child’s class?
We have a wonderful “ALL Around Café and Bar” upstairs with a perfect viewing area of the entire gym for you to relax, get some food and drinks, and enjoy watching your child.
What if I do not want to come in and watch my child’s class?
No problem! For ages 6 and up, please drop your child off at our “curbside entry” door located in our parking lot with the overhang. This door is staffed ensuring your son or daughter makes it safely to their class, and safely back to your vehicle. Please pick up your child from class within 5 minutes of their completed class time, and drop off no earlier than 10 minutes before their class begins. If you have not picked up your son or daughter within 10 minutes of the end of their class, they will be sent to the front office and you will need to park and come inside to pick up your athlete. Age 5 and under need to have a guardian in the building with them unless pre-arranged.
How do payments work?
We do automatic billing with a choice for your payment to be pulled on the 1st , 5th , 10th , or
15th of each month.
What is your make-up policy?
We do offer one make–up class per month for each enrolled missed class. We do ask that you make them up in the month in which the gymnast misses their scheduled class. We have already factored in our tuition prices with our scheduled closures. Tuition will not be prorated and makeup classes will not be offered for our scheduled closures.
Do you offer a sibling discount?
Yes, we do offer a 10% sibling discount.
How long does my child stay in each level for?
We base our Kinder program (ages walking-5) off age, so they will stay in those classes until they age to the next level. This does not mean they will not keep progressing and learning new skills. We make sure each child continues to grow in our program each week and each class they attend. Our Recreational program (ages 6-17) is based off skill level. This means there is no set time for your child to move up. We constantly are working on the skills they need for the next level and evaluating each child’s progress. We will contact you as soon as your child is ready to move to the next level.
What can my child expect to learn in class?
We base all of our gymnastics classes off USAG guidelines. Our tumbling classes focus on basic tumbling skills and then progress into harder tumbling. Our ninja classes focus on different ninja obstacle courses and strength exercises.
Do you offer adult classes?
Do you offer special needs classes?
Yes, we do offer special needs classes. We would love to offer you a free trial class to come and make sure it is the right fit for your child. Please contact Kelsey at coachkkottek@gmail.com or call in and ask for her, for more information or to answer any questions you may have.
Do you offer private lessons?
Yes, we do offer private lessons. These are scheduled directly with the coach of your choice. Rates vary depending on coach and are payable directly to the coach at the time of the private lesson. If you need help finding a coach, feel free to ask our front desk staff and we would be happy to help find one for you.
