Hi all...
I am curious about your opinions on what an effective toddler rec class should look like.
We started out at a pretty average gym, the emphasis was purely on fun and building strength and flexibility. So the class was lots of time in the pit, lots of jumping, climbing etc.
We left that gym for a more prestigious one, not because it was prestigious, but because my son who has several disabilities aged out of rec at the first gym and would not make team or anything but he wanted to keep doing gymnastics while his sister (my toddler) was in class. The new gym offered boys classes based on ability and he could continue his 1 hour a week rec to his hearts desire! (Major props to the gym for this!)
As far as my daughters class it is WAY more focused on skills v fun and basics than the first gym. I thought she would hate it but surprisingly she seems to like it and loves the coaches better than the other one. The problem is she has not seemed to progress at all over the past year, in fact, she seems to have gotten sloppier.
Just curious what you all think?
