Why Gymnastics?Gymnastics is a terrific sport for young people to develop physically and build character.Recreational cl es introduce students to a full spectrum of gymnastics, teaching them strong fundamentals of the sport. At IK, we focus on developing good habits from the very beginning, encouraging students to use only good form and correct technique. Even in our pre-school cl es, we expect students to perform each skill correctly and we do not allow them to advance until they do. Having mastered the fundamentals will set them up for success and fast progress in the future, because naturally, all basic exercises are building blocks of the difficult ones. There are many benefits of this sport and these benefits extend beyond physical well-being. Gymnastics stimulates social cognitive development and gross motor skill development, increases body awareness, promotes dedication, goal setting, confidence, positive self-image, and courage.One of the most unique aspects of the gymnastics is the variety that it provides. Gymnastics subjects the body to such wide variety of stimuli that it improves the studentu2019s overall athleticism, enhancing their performance in any other sports they may be involved in as well.Students develop greater flexibility, agility and coordination. Also, gymnasts learn to fall without getting hurt. Since gymnastics develops both static and dynamic balance, gymnasts do not react with the same u201cstartle responseu201d as non-gymnasts. Instead, they can tolerate much larger disturbances to their posture and acquire a very u201ccat-likeu201d ability to right themselves and to fall without getting hurt. Fall-training benefits students in all other sports as well as in life in general. Even while simply observing gymnastics from a distance, one can surely see that this sport takes a lot of courage. Students are taught courage. They are influenced to push through fears and attempt new skills even when they are scared. At IK, we have the newest, safest, highest quality equipment on the market, therefore our students have the opportunity to push themselves, experiment with different skills and know that it is ok to fall. We teach our students that failure takes courage and it makes them that much stronger once they overcome it. Overtime, students get used to being challenged physically as well as psychologically; it becomes a norm. The priceless skills of patience, courage, and dedication will absolutely benefit them throughout their entire lives.,sub_fields:{email:{label:E-Mail,html:text,enb:true,mandatory:true,name:email},name:{label:Name,html:text,enb:false,name:name}},reg_fields:{name:{label:Name,html:text,enb:1,name:name},email:{label:E-Mail,html:text,enb:true,mandatory:true,name:email}},anim:{label:Slide Right,show_cl :slideInRight,hide_cl :slideOutRight}},opts_attrs:{bg_number:2,txt_block_number:1}},img_preview:simple-html.jpg,show_on:3,show_to:1,show_pages:1,type_id:5,views:359,unique_views:7,actions:370,date_created:2015-01-10 18:59:43,sort_order:0,show_in_admin_area:0,img_preview_url:http://supsystic-42d7.kxcdn.com/_ ets/popup/img/preview/simple-html.jpg,view_id:100_406678,type:simple_html,rendered_html:#ppsPopupShell_100_406678 { width: 400px; padding: 15px; font-family: 'Helvetica', arial; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; font-weight: normal; color: #fff; } #ppsPopupShell_100_406678, #ppsPopupShell_100_406678 * { -webkit-box-sizing: content-box; -moz-box-sizing: content-box; box-sizing: content-box; } #ppsPopupShell_100_406678 p { margin: 14px 0; } #ppsPopupShell_100_406678 .ppsInnerTblContent { height: 100%; border: 8px solid #006dc1; border-radius: 5px; padding: 10px; background-color: #006dc1; } #ppsPopupShell_100_406678 .ppsPopupClose { position:absolute;background-image:url(http://ikgym.com/wp-content/plugins/popup-by-supsystic/modules/popup/img/ ets/close_btns/circle_big_new_close.png);background-repeat:no-repeat;top:0;right:0;width:31px;height:31px; } Why Gymnastics?Gymnastics is a terrific sport for young people to develop physically and build character.Recreational cl es introduce students to a full spectrum of gymnastics, teaching them strong fundamentals of the sport.
