Gymnastics Classes
Our classes are structured to enable each athlete to progress at their own pace. Classes are taught by experienced, certified and background checked coaches who individualize each gymnast’s training. Consider that in gymnastics, the more practice you get the more progress you make. Beginner athletes may consider joining more than one day a week to accelerate progress.

Class Descriptions
Beginner Gymnastics Classes: Kids begin learning basic skills like forward rolls and backward rolls, then progress to more complex gymnastics movements, such as cartwheels, bridge kick-overs, and more. They are also introduced to basic concepts on beam, vault, and uneven bars and progress at their pace to more advanced movements.
Advanced Gymnastics Classes: This class progresses handsprings to more advanced tumbling passes on floor. This class may also be mixed with kids with intermediate level skills moving toward more advanced skills on vault, uneven bars, beam, and floor. Some of these classes are designated competitive team classes.
Skills Requirement: Back walkovers and front walkovers on floor. Press to handstand or long hang pullover on uneven bars.
Adult Gymnastics Classes: Beginner classes are low to medium impact, while intermediate and advanced classes are medium to high intensity.
Competitive Team Classes: Click here for team information. You may register for a 2-hour intermediate/advanced class trial first to determine eligibility. Evaluations are conducted by a team coach. Once the coach has evaluated skills, an appropriate schedule will be recommended at the end of the try-out.
Competitive & Recreational Gymnastics for All Ages.

Progress of a Beginner Gymnast
Our training at Manakoa Gymnastics stresses good form in every detail from the very start of a beginner’s training. Our gymnasts move with a purpose and that purpose is to improve and to gain multi-skills.
When you think of progress, think of it as someone learning to read for the first time. Think about the amount of time and effort it takes, as well as all the sub-skills needed to read (i.e. learning the alphabet, memorizing letter sounds and sight words, sounding out syllables, etc.). The initial ability of the individual to learn these sub-skills also plays a factor. Gymnastics progress is similar. It depends on many factors.
Individuals with average coordination will have a leg up on learning many of the sub-skills, but if they lack muscle strength, particularly upper body strength, then progress may take just a bit longer than someone with both excellent coordination and muscle strength.
Upper body strength isn’t developed in any other sport to the extend it is developed and needed for gymnastics skills. There’s also a flexibility factor, and someone with great muscular strength may need to work extra on coordination and flexibility and so on. However, even someone with poor coordination, strength, and flexibility practicing one day a week at Manakoa Gymnastics will show considerable improvement with our technique if they stick with it long enough to learn all the sub-skills.
