Boys Recreational Gymnastics Classes

At Southlake Gymnastics Academy, our Boys Recreational Gymnastics Program is designed to inspire confidence, build strength, and develop coordination—all while having a blast! We offer progressive classes for boys from kindergarten and up, focusing on foundational skills across all six Olympic events: Floor Exercise, Pommel Horse, Still Rings, Vault, Parallel Bars, and High Bar, as well as trampoline and foam pit activities. The director of the Developmental program coordinates the week-to-week activities, the events, and the skills the classes are working on so that they remain fun and progressive for every child.
