Preschool Programs
BABY MO
This class is a fun bonding activity for you and your child. Our lessons are designed to provide developmentally appropriate large muscle movement with fine motor activities to keep your child entertained and active. We recommend joining our program once your child has started taking steps, as a large majority of the class involves crawling and climbing.
BITTY MO
Preschool: 2 year olds (50 minutes)
This is our transition class from parent-led to being independent. The goal of this class is for each child to begin to learn classroom etiquette and work on color and shape recognition. Your child will be encouraged to try new skills increasing self-confidence while improving fine and gross motor skills. Some specific skills we focus on are being able to follow the leader with different body positions, listening to instructions, and gaining control over their body. Things like balancing, climbing, weight bearing on their hands, standing on their toes, rocking back and forth, rolling over, and jumping with 2 feet.
MINI MO
Preschool: 3 year olds (60 minutes) – Mini Mo
This class is geared to fine-tune those motor skills in addition to balance and coordination. As well as improving their school skills with things like lining up, taking turns and sorting letters and numbers.
Some specific skills we focus on are running forward and backward, holds on bars, keeping arms overhead, standing on one foot, beginner releve walks, rolling in different directions, and safe landing position. We also begin to introduce proper gymnastics terminology during class.
MIGHTY MO
Preschool: 4 year olds (60 minutes) – Mighty Mo
This class is meant to grow your child’s flexibility and strength along with adding to those existing motor skills. We aim to assist in preparing them for school by practicing taking turns, counting, and collaborative games with peers. Some specific skills we focus on are splits and kneeling lunges, beginner bridge, starting in a lunge for cartwheels, donkey kicks, rebounding out of skills, assisted pullovers, glide swings, and walking in different directions on beam. We also continue to build on the proper gymnastics terminology being used during class.
MINI CHEER
Preschool: 2.5 year olds (50 MINUTES) – Mini Shock Cheer
Our preschool, 2.5 to 4 year old, classes are designed to introduce your child to an active class in which they can learn classroom etiquette, body awareness and basic cheerleading. Our goal is that your child will associate fitness with fun, and learn how to participate in a class with other preschool students. Your child will be encouraged to try new skills and activities, increasing self-confidence in the process.
ADVANCED PRESCHOOL GYMNASTICS
This program is invitation only for girls ages 3-6 who have demonstrated exceptional execution and understanding of skills as well as focus during class. We work on flexibility, strength, and perfecting those foundational skills to carry them through their gymnastics career. We offer daily challenges to assist in your child making forward progress.
Preschool Cheerleading
Make cheerleading a foundation
for the rest of their lives!
Our goal is that each child, regardless of ability, will have a positive experience learning new things. Laughter and friends are a big part of creating this positive experience. Our preschool program focuses on the development of fine and gross motor skills, playground readiness, social skills, and cheerleading skills.
Our specially designed program and equipment are scaled to fit preschoolers that have smaller hands and bodies allowing our tiniest athletes to do cheerleading “just like the big kids.” From learning stunts, jumps, tumbling and fun cheers, these children will have no downtime! While age is the general guideline for class organization, our curriculum allows for the flexibility that acknowledges that children develop at different rates.
The Impact of Momentum Preschool Gymnastics
Physical and Athletic Development
Preschool educational gymnastics develops essential physical skills such as balance, coordination, strength, and flexibility. Through thoughtfully designed activities, children enhance their body control, motor skills, and spatial awareness. These foundational abilities not only support everyday tasks and promote a healthy lifestyle but also prepare children for success in any sport they choose to pursue in the future.
Cognitive Growth
Gymnastics actively engages both the body and the mind, encouraging children to comprehend instructions, retain routines, and navigate spatial relationships. These exercises strengthen cognitive abilities like memory, attention, and critical thinking. The organized framework of gymnastics classes cultivates self-discipline and sharpens focus, equipping children with essential skills for thriving in any learning environment.
Social and Emotional Growth
In the aftermath of COVID, separation anxiety has become a growing challenge for both children and parents. Gymnastics classes provide young children with the opportunity to engage with peers in a structured and nurturing environment. This safe and supportive space helps build trust for both children and their parents. Through group activities and collaborative exercises, children develop crucial social skills like teamwork, communication, and empathy. Additionally, the process of learning and mastering new skills instills a sense of achievement and enhances self-esteem, helping to shape confident and resilient individuals.
Building Confidence and Self-esteem
Gymnastics provides children with the chance to tackle challenges and overcome obstacles, fostering a sense of accomplishment. Achieving goals is essential for building a positive self-concept, something we strive to nurture in every child. In our gymnastics classes, children experience the excitement of mastering new skills, all while being supported and celebrated by their instructors!
Building Healthy Habits that Last a Lifetime
In today’s world, children have limited opportunities for active play and physical fitness. By introducing young children to the joy of movement through structured playtime, we help foster a lifelong appreciation for exercise. Preschool educational gymnastics transforms fitness into a fun and engaging experience, motivating children to develop healthy habits as they grow. Our carefully designed classes combine playful activities with structured guidance, ensuring children enjoy themselves while building essential skills. This early exposure to enjoyable physical activity reduces the risk of sedentary behavior and related health issues in the future.
