How much and how often is the registration fee paid and what does it cover?

The initial registration fee is $35 for the first child, $20 for the 1st sibling with a maximum total of $55 per family. A yearly renewal fee of $20 will apply on your child's anniversary date. These fees help defray office / administrative, insurance and other non-teaching costs.

How often is tuition due?

We offer two sessions per year which very in length. Tuition is due in advance of each session. Priority deadline for tuition for current students is 14 days prior to the next session. Paying for the next session by the priority deadline insures that your child will receive priority over new students for their class spot.

When should new students register for a session?

New students can register anytime as our program is year-round, even if a class is in session. Fees will be pro-rated. Since we are geared to recreational gymnastic, fun & fitness curriculums each child progresses on their own merit.

What should my child wear for the class?

We suggest wearing comfortable clothing such as gym shorts or sweat pants and a tee shirt. Female gymnasts may wear a leotard (without feet) if desired. Clothing should not have buttons, zippers or belts. No jewelry of any kind is allowed. Long hair should be tied back away from face (no hand bands please). Gymnastics students go bare foot in class so they won't slip on the mats. THese dress codes are for safety reasons so have your child dress appropriately for each class. We do have tumblebus t-shirt and short sets available for purchase at the station and on our website.

Your child may be dropped off no earlier than 10 minutes prior to the beginning of class and picked up no later than 10 minutes after class.

Can parents watch while their child is in class?

Yes - we have a viewing area at the gym for your convenience. Parents may not sit in or be in the gym area while their child is in class. This enables us to have their full attention and get the most out of the class time. A child's contact, even eye contact with their parents can be very limiting to their progress, in some cases it may even be a safety hazard due to a lack of concentration from the child.

What gym rules should I know about?

Not many but we would appreciate observance of the following. Shoes, gum, food or drink are not allowed in the gym area or on top of the short wall between the gym and the parent area. Parents and visitors are not allowed on the gym floor or equipment. No smoking in the building. Drive carefully in the parking lot. Fasten your seatbelts and your childrens.

Do you offer make up classes?

If a regularly scheduled class is cancelled due to weather or other circumstances, we will reschedule the class. Otherwise, we do not offer make-up classes at this time.

If this doesn't answer your question, you may want to refer to a local school of cosmetology.
