It’s not enough for gymnastics to just be fun.
Let’s be real—gymnastics should be more than just a good time. While fun is a big deal, we believe that learning and growth matter just as much. If your child isn’t walking away from their gymnastics class with new skills and confidence, it might be time to reconsider where you're investing your money.
The curriculum can transform a child’s experience.
At Spirit Technique, we know how powerful the right curriculum and culture can be. Like @elmiefairchild shared, “If my child is coming out of a class or camp without any new skills, next time I’ll keep my $600 and we’ll go have ‘just fun’ on the playground.” The truth is, with the right gymnastics coach and environment, your child can thrive—having fun and gaining gymnastics skills that build their confidence.
The wrong culture can hold your child back.
If you’ve ever felt like your child isn’t progressing in their gymnastics program or seems uninterested, it might not be your child—it could be the culture of the class or even the teacher. Don’t let one experience define your child’s potential. Be sure to ask questions to understand whether the growth you should be seeing is character, skills or concept based. Before leaving work with your coaches or instructors to understand if there is a breakdown. At Spirit Technique, we focus on consistent development, so when your child walks out of class, they’ve learned something new.
They deserve a space to grow, learn, and thrive.
Your child deserves more than “just for fun.” They deserve a place where they can grow, learn, and thrive—and still have a blast while learning gymnastics. This doesn't always show up as a new skill. Sometimes it's them building their confidence by introducing themself or helping another class mate. Sometimes it's them improving how they are doing a skill so that they feel safe when executing it. Sometimes it's building the habit of determination as they continue to come to class and work on something they find challenging. Want to see them take their skills to the next level? Come see what Spirit Technique is all about.
