Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get started?

1. Register: Complete online registration by clicking here.

2. Get Placed: Once the registration is received, you will receive an email (usually within a week) with enrollment information. All new students are required to complete one month in a beginner class before joining a regular class. We place new students the first week of each month and returning students as soon as a spot is available. Placement options are based on availability. The first month’s tuition will be prorated. Enrollment Fee and tuition must be paid online prior to the first day of class in which your child is enrolled.

3. Pay: You will be provided access to the Parent Portal where you will be able to manage your account, your child’s enrollment, and payments. Pay the $45 annual enrollment fee and monthly tuition per child. There is no contract or minimum months to join.

After this is completed, your child is officially enrolled! Monthly Tuition is what secures your child’s spot in class. If payment is not received by the 7th of each month, your child’s spot may be forfeited. We highly recommend setting up automatic payments to avoid this.

How old does my child need to be?

We offer classes for those 2 years and older.

How do you structure your classes?

Our recreational (beginner and intermediate classes) are structured by age and our advanced and team classes are designated by skill. Our gymnastics classes include instruction and development for all gymnastics events. The Tumbling classes are just for tumbling, and the Cheer class is for motions, jumps, and tumbling. Our current rec classes are:

24 -36 months – Mom & Me (boys and girls together) – 45 min class
3, 4, & 5 yr olds (boys and girls together) – 60 minute classes
6, 7, & 8 yr olds (girls) – 60 minute classes
9+ (girls) – 60 minute classes
6 & 7 yr old Boys
8+ yr old Boys
Cheer: motions, jumps, & tumbling (7+, boys and girls together) – 60 minute classes
Tumble (7+, boys and girls together) – 60 minute classes
Advanced (Little Stars) and Competitive Team (Levels 1-10) are for girls 5 and older who are evaluated and meet the minimum skill and behavioral criteria. – class length varies.

What should my child wear to class?

In general, clothes should be non-restrictive, but not baggy. Clothes should have no buttons, zippers, snaps, buckles, or strings.

NO EXPOSED MIDRIFFS. Any child arriving with an exposed midriff will not be able to participate in class.

All jewelry should be removed, including: barrettes, clips, watches, rings, necklaces, and earrings. Stud earrings may be worn. Secure eyeglasses.

HAIR: must be pulled up and away from the face.

FEET: Shoes and socks are to be removed. Everyone must be barefoot.

GIRLS: leotards and unitards are recommended. Tights, leggings, or non-baggy shorts may be worn over a leotard or with a shirt or tank tucked in. No skirts or skorts.

BOYS: Sport shorts and a tucked in t-shirt or tank.

CHEER & TUMBLE: sport shorts or leggings and tucked-in t-shirts or tanks. Skorts ok.

Can I stay and watch my child during class?

Absolutely!! We have always had an open-gym floor-plan. There are multiple viewing areas (upstairs and downstairs) with bleachers and bleacher seats.

Can I drop my child off for class and leave?

Yes! We do ask that you stay for the duration of your child’s first class, otherwise, you can stay or leave as you wish.

We also ask that you enter and exit the gym with your child instead of dropping them off and picking them up from the parking lot.

How big are the classes?

We are proud to keep our class sizes small with a max of 8:1 students to coach ratio. We believe this benefits the interaction between the students and their coaches, leading to quicker advancement of skills.

What does my child need to bring?

Besides a positive mental attitude, your child can bring a reusable water bottle and anything else they need for practice, such as braces, pre-wrap, and tape. Otherwise, we have water fountains, hand sanitizer, and chalk.

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

Depending on their age, our classes will teach your child how to do the basic skills for gymnastics on Bars, Beam, Floor, and Vault. When they achieve every skill, is when they can move into the advanced (Little Stars – Pre-team) and team classes.

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

All new gymnastics students 3-8 year’s old start in a beginner class for one month. Once they complete the beginner class, they can move into any regular recreational class we have with open spots.

If you think your gymnast is advanced, you may schedule an evaluation for $45. This evaluation will give the coaches an exact understanding of what your child already knows, and our coaches can put her/him in the correct class. In order to schedule an evaluation, email us at nassergym@yahoo.com.

What happens if we miss a lesson?

Make up classes are allowed in case of sickness with a doctor’s note and contingent upon open spaces in classes.

Make up classes have to be scheduled in the front office, and can only be made up in the month a class is missed. One make up class is allowed a month.

How do I pay online?

Payments can be made online through the Parent Portal.

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 prepare your child for our Competitive Team by teaching the proper progressions. Each child is moved up on an individual basis. When your child is ready to move up, our coaches will let you know. You may also schedule an evaluation at any time to see what your child needs to work on.

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 would like to see if your child is able to be on those teams, you may request an evaluation for $45 to see which class your child should be in.
