The Recreational Gymnastics Program at The Ohio Gymnastics Institute is fun, challenging, and safe. Classes are designed for school age children who are 6 years of age and up. Classes are separated into Boy’s and Girl’s Gymnastics Classes. We also offer four different skill levels to suit the needs of every child interested in learning Gymnastics. Our highly trained staff and 12 week rotating curriculum will continually bring new challenges as well as further develop and master the basic skills needed to be successful and safe in the sport of gymnastics.

Novice Level

The NGSTP

Each child enrolled in the recreational program automatically becomes a part of the National Gymnastics Skills Test Program (NGSTP) - a skill acquisition program taught in a non-competitive and encouraging environment.

The NGSTP challenges each gymnast to learn 50 skills in each level of class. Each time a student masters a skill a staff member records the student's accomplishments on their chart.

Once 80% of skills in a level have been mastered, the student is awarded their advancement to the next level. Once a student masters 100% of the skills, the student is awarded a trophy to commemorate the accomplishment during our one of a kind Celebration Ceremony.

Coaches and athletes can use the NGSTP charts to help monitor progress, identify weaknesses and establish goals for the future.

Extensive experience in gymnastics is required for these classes (advancement from our Novice class or an evaluation). Our more advanced classes will keep children challenged while they learn more intricate skills. Classes become longer and more physically demanding as athletes progress through the levels. The challenge of meeting specific performance standards sparks each athlete to strive for perfection.
