Preschool Classes
Ages as of June 1st for Summer Session
and September 1st for the School Year Session
At Gleason’s, we believe that children learn best in a welcoming atmosphere, filled with positive reinforcement and happy people. Our Preschool Program is designed to use gymnastics and fundamental body movements as a platform for building and strengthening confidence, positive self-image, and problem-solving skills in a supportive environment.
With weekly lessons that promote a confident "I can do that" attitude, children develop skills that lay the foundation for success throughout all aspects of their lives.
Children sign up for preschool classes by their age as of September 1st during the School Year Session
and will remain in the same class for the entire session regardless of when they have a birthday.
Bitty-Mites - Ages 2 with parent/guardian,
45 mins - 1x week
The Bitty-Mites class introduces two-year-olds to the Gleason’s gymnastic environment. Children use mats, parachutes, trampolines, and more to discover the world around them, developing fundamental movement and problem-solving skills along the way. A parent/guardian participates in class with the child.
Mini-Mites - Ages 3, 60 mins - 1x week
The Mini-Mites class is a for three year old boys and girls. Central to the experience is learning fundamental gymnastics skills that enable students to develop confidence and self-esteem. Emphasis is placed on developing listening and problem solving skills within a gymnastics context while having an engaging social experience with other students and teachers.
Dyna-Mites - Ages 4-year-old girls,
60 mins - 1x week
These students will be introduced to the basics of gymnastics in all six events of men’s gymnastics: Floor Exercise, Pommel Horse, Still Rings, Vault, Parallel Bars, and Horizontal Bar. The trampoline is also used for learning and fun at this level. Rolls, handstands, and cartwheels are the basics taught in the tumbling section, while hanging, supporting, traveling, and proper landing techniques are the basic themes on all of the apparatus. The only difference is the age grouping and maturity level of the boys.
Muscle-Mites - Ages 4-5 boys,
60 mins - 1x week
Muscle-Mites is a four-year-old boys-only class that introduces boys to the world of gymnastics. As with all Gleason’s Preschool classes, emphasis is placed on using movement education as a springboard for developing the physical, mental, and social skills necessary for success in gymnastics and beyond. Experiencing various gymnastic movements, inverting, rolling, cartwheeling, and tumbling at a young age, the child becomes better prepared and more confident to attempt more advanced skills and challenges as they progress throughout the year.
