KINDY KIDS

Gymnastics, games, dance and play! Students learn to use traditional gymnastic apparatus like bars, balance beam, tumbling, trampoline and much more. Plus, we add climbing walls, fine motor skills, the basics of throw and catch and themed play. The focus of each class is body control, group work and confidence.

NOTE: If you prefer a different day or time you may not be alone. Let us know your preference and with enough numbers we can start a class.

PRE-STEP

When pre-primary aged students join Olympic we start them in PRE-STEP. PRE-STEP is like getting ready for the big leagues!

In PRE-STEP Students learn all the necessary safety procedures and gymnastic movements necessary for developing confidence on the tumble tramp, bars, balance beam, floor, climbing walls and much more.

Students work as individuals and in teams. They earn achievement awards throughout the year with an emphasis on quality learning, participation and fun. Pre-STEP students are not graded but don’t be fooled. PRE-STEP kids definitely get the jump on anyone joining Olympic as a primary-aged student!

The STEP Program

STEP is Olympic’s flagship junior gymnastic and fitness program made specifically for primary school aged kids. It’s our most popular and longest running program and it’s exclusive to Olympic.

STEP is a fun way to develop self-esteem and physical competence. All traditional male and female gymnastic events are covered and girls and boys train together. This means that girls will learn events like the parallel bars and rings (traditionally male gym events) and the boys will practice beam (traditionally a female gym event).

There are six ‘steps’ in the program that take a young athlete from a beginner to an intermediate level. Each participant is individually graded so progress can be tailored to the child’s ability.

Included in the syllabus is hand apparatus (balls, hoops, skipping ropes and bean bags), essential running and climbing skills and general physical fitness activities (flexibility, strength, endurance and coordination). You can learn more about STEP in the tutorial below.

NOTE: All beginners and new-comers will start in STEP 1. There is A LOT to learn about a new training environment. If you already have gym, acro, cheer or other related sport experience ask, then make sure you ask us about the best class for you.
