Santa Rosa Gymnastics TEAM
Santa Rosa Gymnastics takes pride in our positive, non-pressured coaching and our very supportive atmosphere. Our goal is for each gymnast to attain her full potential and achieve her goals, whatever that my be.
On attaining competitive status: Our team program is designed especially for the gymnast seeking to compete in the sport of gymnastics and possible continuation onto the college level.
Gymnasts can attain competitive status through our developmental fast tracked program.
Gymnasts enter developmental classes, (Jumping June Bugs, Mini Mites and Level 1); these are 3 specially designed classes which are more strongly structured and team bound. These classes quickly teach the gymnast more advanced techniques and prepare her to enter competition at Level 2. Gymnasts may continue up through Level 10 by achieving the qualification score and acquiring the required skills.
For that gymnast who is at level B but can not commit to the training or fees on the developmental teams (levels 4-10), we offer our recreational, Xcel Team.
