Flying High’s Boys Gymnastics Program is perfect for energetic boys who dream of competing one day—or just need a fun way to burn off some serious steam! Designed for boys in 1st grade and up, this program welcomes everyone from recent Big Dippers grads to future team stars in training.
In class, boys build strong foundations on the floor, pommel horse, rings, vault, parallel bars, and high bar—all while boosting their strength, coordination, and confidence. With an emphasis on conditioning, skill-building, and setting goals, our coaches help each gymnast grow with a mix of discipline and high-energy fun.
Class Descriptions
Rock Stars 1
- 1st Grade & Up

Additional Info
Boys will begin to learn the basics on each event in this class. Focus is placed on strength building and body awareness. Skills include handstands and cartwheels on floor, support holds and straddle laps on parallel bars, correct run and board entry for vault, and so much more! Boys will proceed to Rock Stars 2 when they are comfortable on all apparatus, show sufficient strength and body awareness, and prove that they can work independently and follow directions.
Rock Stars 2

Additional Info
In our Rock Stars 2 Class boys will build upon the skills they learned in Rock Stars 1. While the focus at this level is perfecting basic skills, new elements and more challenging sequences are introduced. Strength and endurance are crucial for learning more advanced skills, so you will see more conditioning at this level.
*Students must be evaluated by a Flying High Instructor before being placed in this level.
Intermediate Boys

After all skills at the Intermediate Level have been learned and perfected, boys may have the opportunity to continue with Recreational Gymnastics, and join our Advanced Boys Class, or work towards becoming a member of the Boys Competitive Gymnastics Team by being invited to join Pre-Team.

Recreational Gymnastics FAQs
Can I enroll right now or do I have to wait until the next month starts?
Flying High classes run all year long—no long-term commitment needed!
Jump in anytime; tuition is paid monthly and stays the same, whether the month is long or short (it all evens out!).
Starting mid-month? No worries—we’ll prorate!
A $35 annual admin fee is due when you enroll and each year after. (Non-refundable, but helps keep the magic going!)
If my son/daughter joins class now, will he/she be behind all the other students?
Will my child be behind if they start now?
Not at all! Our classes are grouped by age and skill, so everyone’s working on the same fun stuff.
New students jump right in, and those who’ve already mastered the skills have moved on up—so your child will fit right in and shine in no time!
Can Parents/Family stay to watch a class?
Yes! We have viewing rooms available and you are more than welcome to come and watch a class in action! We also have a Café where drinks and snacks can be purchased while you watch class.
Why are children placed by age but move up by skill?
Why are classes grouped by age but level-ups based on skill?
At Flying High, we group by age to match natural stages of child development—but every kiddo grows at their own pace!
Each class has a skill checklist, and once your child masters all the moves, they’re ready to level up—no matter their age.
It’s all about confidence, progress, and celebrating each child’s unique journey!
What are the uniform requirements?
What should my child wear to class?
We recommend leotards for girls—without skirts (they like to get caught on things!). Spandex shorts and snug leggings in chilly months work great too.
Boys should wear a comfy t-shirt and shorts (no zippers or baggy fits, please!). Sweatpants and long sleeves are perfect for cooler days.
What is the evaluation process?
What’s the evaluation process like?
At Flying High, evaluations are a big celebration! 🎉
When a coach feels your child is ready, a fresh set of eyes (an evaluator from outside their class) will guide them through their skill list to see how far they’ve come.
If it’s time to level up, they’ll ring the bell loud and proud—while the whole gym cheers them on like the superstar they are!
Have questions about your athlete’s progress? You can always ask the teacher or email the director at Natalie.L@flyinghighgym.com.
How often should my child come to class? Once or twice a week?
How many times a week should my child attend class?
That’s up to you—but we highly recommend coming twice a week!
It helps your child grow stronger, stretch farther, learn faster, and master all that fun gymnastics lingo.
More time in the gym = more progress, more confidence, and more fun!
What are my options if my child needs extra practice?
What if my child needs a little extra practice?
