Gator coaches Rhonda, Adrian, and Robert invite campers to experience the opportunity of becoming Gator gymnasts for the weekend! Gymnasts will be placed into groups based upon their skill level and will work out in every session with the Gator coaches and Gator gymnasts. Emphasis will be placed upon reinforcing basic skills while pursuing new skills and skill progressions—very much like what the “real” Gator gymnasts do every day. Training will be on all four competitive events, as well as Tumble Trak/trampoline, dance, and “conditioning the Gator way.” Best of all, campers will experience for the first time gymnastics in our beautiful new training facility! Please take a few moments to read the following information before beginning to register. Remember, we are accepting 100 campers each weekend!
