Do you offer Trial classes? What type of contract is the membership?

  • Enrollment will roll over to the following month until the end of the session.
  • Should you wish to cancel enrollment, please provide email notification to info@nassergym.com at least 2 weeks in advance of the upcoming month to avoid additional tuition/cancellation fees.

What does my child need to bring?

Besides a positive mental attitude, and shoes to wear in and out of the building, your child should bring a reusable water bottle (to be kept on the gym floor during class) and anything else they need to keep their hair out of their face and clothes in place for practice and any additional support supplies, such as braces, pre-wrap, and tape. 

 

When should we arrive for class?

5-10 minutes before class start time. Students should arrive no more than 5-10 minutes prior to their class time. This is so that we have time to clear out the building and parking lot to make room for the next students. We may have the front door locked or ask you to remain outside of the facility, including the parking lot until the class prior has cleared out.

 

How do you structure your classes?

Our recreational classes are structured by age and our tumble and advanced (pre-team and team) classes are designated by skill & technique, maturity, and drive. See Class Information & Descriptions for more details on classes.

Our more advanced classes include our Pre-team and Competitive Team (Levels 1-10) are for girls 5 and older who are evaluated and meet the minimum skill and behavioral criteria – practice requirements vary by level. Students must pass an evaluation and receive an invitation from the Director for placement in these levels. See more details on the Team page.

 

What should I expect my child to learn in the recreational (rec) classes?

Recreational classes are those that are not specifically for competitive team. Our Director defines a session-long curriculum broken down into weekly lesson plans. Each coach follows this specific curriculum to develop strength, skills, and technique in an intentionally progressive format. This ensures safe and buildable gymnastics and consistent quality within our program.

Depending on their age, our classes will teach students how to do the basic skills for gymnastics on Bars, Beam, Floor, and Vault. When they demonstrate that they can perform the core skills, consistently, and with good form, their coach may recommend an evaluation to be considered for our advanced classes, pre-team, and/or team classes. See Class Information & Descriptions for more details on classes.

 

Can I stay and watch my child during class?

Absolutely!! We have always had an open-gym floor-plan. There is a large viewing area upstairs with bleachers.

 

Can I drop my child off for class and leave?

Yes! We do require an adult/guardian to stay for the duration of a new student’s first class, otherwise, you can stay or leave as you wish.

 

How do I determine which class my child should be in?

Choose classes based on interest (gymnastics, ninja, and/or tumble) and age. See Class Information & Descriptions for more details on classes. Our coaches are trained to advance students and identify when they are ready to move up levels.

 

What happens if we miss a lesson?

It happens and is no big thing. We do not provide refunds or credits for missed classes. Make-up classes are not guaranteed. Once you enroll and pay the monthly tuition, your child’s place is guaranteed through the month for the class in which they are registered, whether they attend or not. Because of this hold, refunds will not be issued.

  • Make-ups are provided in the case of CONTAGIOUS ILLNESSES. Make-up for day(s) missed may be scheduled once the office is provided with a signed doctor’s note for the child. Make-ups are contingent upon class availability and are not guaranteed.
  • Team students are not eligible for make-ups.
  • All make-ups must be scheduled and confirmed with the office at least 1 week in advance of attendance. Make-up classes are subject to the availability of class times and spaces and cannot be rescheduled. If you miss a make-up class, we will not schedule another one. A limit of ONE make-up class will be given per month to those eligible. Classes must be made up within the month of absence and will not be carried over. Email info@nassergym.com to inquire about make-ups.

 

Are sibling discounts available?

Sibling discounts are applied to our annual membership fee and monthly tuition. When an additional child is enrolled, they receive a $5 discount to both of those fees.

 

How long does my child have to be in a class before they get to move up to the next level?.

At Nasser, our goal is to advance students by teaching the proper progressions, body shaping, strength, and core skills. Students advance at their own pace, which is not based on duration, but rather abilities, strength, maturity, drive, etc. Each child is moved up on an individual basis. When your child is ready to move up, our coaches will let you know.

  • If you think your gymnast is advanced, you may schedule an evaluation for $55. We typically recommend Private Lessons to strengthen and polish the necessary skills to advance prior to an evaluation
  • Evaluations (evals) are used to advance students, but also to assess students in their gymnastics development. Evaluations are great for providing insights on students’ skill level and possible areas of improvement. Email info@nassergym.com to inquire about evals.
  • Private Lessons (PLs) may be booked in the Parent Portal under Events.

 

How can my child participate in the competitive team?

Any of our gymnasts in Level 1 or higher have the opportunity to compete.

  • If you think your gymnast is advanced, you may schedule an evaluation for $55. We recommend speaking with your child's coach after class to discuss progress and readiness. We typically recommend Private Lessons to strengthen and polish the necessary skills to advance prior to an evaluation.
