Students are brand new to gymnastics or still working to master the fundamentals such as forward/backward rolling, handstands, cartwheels, and bridging.
Students are learning to bridge and kickover on an incline as well as backbend on an incline. They have a good understanding of cartwheels and handstands and are beginning to develop roundoffs.
Students should be able to do a bridge kickover down an incline mat, hurdle into a roundoff, backbend onto an incline mat, and handstand into a bridge. Students will begin work on backwalkovers, backhandsprings, and fronthandsprings.
Students should be able to do a backwalkover, standing backhandspring, and fronthandspring on the floor. Students will work on roundoff backhandsprings, backtucks/layouts, punch front tucks, etc.
