get that skill!
Does your child want that one special skill like a back handspring, or to be able to back flip/front flip off on a trampoline or into a pool? Maybe they just want to perfect their more basic skills like a handstand, cartwheel, or a backbend.
Weekly gymnastics classes with Maui Tumblers will teach every child how to move their body safely, learn basic to advanced skills, and most importantly build confidence and have fun.The tricky thing about mixed level group classes is it can be difficult to really drill a specific technical skill that not every student is ready for or wants to learn.
This is where "Get That Skill!" comes into play. We will be choosing specific gymnastics, acrobatic, ninja skills once a month for our specialty clinics. Get That Skill! is a 2.5 hour workshop dedicated to one specific skill, a group of kids with similar skill sets and one goal in mind: to GET THAT SKILL!
