The Washington Park District offers a variety of tumbling classes for children of all skill levels ages 4+. Our focus is creating a fun and engaging learning environment where our tumblers can learn new skills and continue to perfect existing ones. Our staff of qualified coaches are on hand to offer a learning environment where tumblers can reach their goals!
Important Information:
Tumblers should wear close-fitting athletic clothes to each class. Hair must be pulled up out of their face. No jewelry! The tumbling rooms can get warm or cold depending on the season, please dress children accordingly. Please send tumblers with a water bottle to class.
Parent Watch Policy:
We invite parents come in to help their tumbler to prepare for class 5 minutes prior to class start and then return for the last 5 minutes of class to watch their tumbler. Please be aware that having parents in during instructional class time can be distracting for the tumblers. Please feel free to utilize some of our common areas around the park district facility. Parents may hang out in the “Parent waiting room” on the stage or other common areas for classes in the gym and the tumbling cage.
