Adaptive (Special Needs) Gymnastics

At Hi-NRG inclusion is very important to us, that’s why we designed an extra special CO-ED program for everyone to join us and become young gymnasts. We have a team of coaches eager to serve anyone with any kind of ability or cognitive development. Our coaches are taught how to communicate effectively so that a child knows exactly what they should be doing and we consider it very important in this program.

One of the things we love about this program is that the regular benefits we see on girls gymnastics are highly duplicated when applying to our special needs classes. Just as is observed in our regular classes, we see that performance and confidence develop faster. And for some specific conditions, the development of strength and flexibility can also be therapeutic. Because the body is obligated to stretch, those exercising muscles can prevent numbness and cramps.

We believe that gymnastics classes at any ability, age, and skill level can help us to accept each other’s differences. We strive to teach our students that our differences are what make us unique and we can overcome obstacles with a little to no effort. We’ve found with most students that if they want to achieve their goals they will be able to do it as long as they are disciplined and committed to stick with it.
