Islands YMCA Gymnastics at WIPP

Each year Islands YMCA offers a Tuesday gymnastics class for our students.  They pick up the students at WIPP during carpool and have them ready at the Y for parent pick-up at 1:00.  Space is very limited so if you're interested in having your child participate, please contact the Islands YMCA ASAP!

General registration info is included below.  Please note that WIPP kids are on a month-to-month basis and that our classes start in September.  All classes and registration is handled through the Y so if you have questions, please call Amanda at the Y @ 912-897-1192.

The sport of gymnastics is a great way to develop body awareness and coordination, increase confidence and independence, and learn social skills and good sportsmanship. The Islands YMCA gymnastics program is dedicated to producing successful gymnasts by providing a fun, safe and motivating atmosphere that enhances physical and mental well-being while encouraging all gymnasts to reach their full potential. We offer a variety of boys and girls recreational and preschool gymnastics classes. These classes utilize all of the gymnastics equipment and events. Class programs are based on skills as defined by USA Gymnastics. Required skills must be mastered at each level before advancing to the next class. The gymnastics program also offers summer camps, open gym, Parent’s Night Out and other special activities throughout the year.

Program fees are session based; classes are a first come, first serve basis. Fees are due by the end of week 5 in each session. Students are guaranteed priority enrollment in the following session, as long as payment is received one week prior to the beginning of the new session. A $10.00 late fee is applied to any tuition not paid by the first week of the new session and your gymnasts spot will be forfeited. New students may join a session already in progress. Please contact the GymnasticsOffice for pricing details or to schedule a free trial class!
