CLASS PROCEDURES

All children need to be supervised until class begins and be picked up promptly at the end of class.
Please be on time for class. The first minutes of class are used to stretch and warm up muscles & increase heart rate. This is important in preventing injury and promoting progress in the sport.
Within the class, students are grouped according to their age, ability, and skill level. Children will be taught skills which follow a progression from basic to harder skills.
Please make sure your child uses the restroom before class.
