Additional Information
Our coaches have trained some of the best cheerleaders, dancers, and tumblers in the area for many years. Our class structure puts an emphasis on skill-specific drills, conditioning, and organized rotations during class to keep kids moving and improving for the entire 55 min class.
Joining a tumbling class is one of the best ways to boost your skill level for high school and collegiate cheerleading tryouts. We put an emphasis and focus on safe progression to help avoid injuries, mental blocks, and ensure that each individual athlete is set up to succeed in the LONG RUN.
To see current class times and pricing, please visit our CUSTOMER PORTAL. Class tuition is set on a monthly basis with the flexibility to join or drop at any time. There is no long-term commitment, but it is the responsibility of the Parent or Guardian to drop the enrollment when the Athlete will no longer be taking the class.
Each athlete will be charged an annual Insurance and Registration Fee of $55 upon enrolling and again during their “anniversary month” each year they are still enrolled. A one-time paid trial class ($20) is an option. Email us for details.
Private Lesson Tumbling Evaluations
If your athlete misses their tumbling evaluation week or you know they will be missing ahead of time, you can set up a Private Lesson Evaluation with the tumbling director. For more information on Private Lesson Evaluations, contact the tumbling director at Tumbling@ourtribeathletics.com.
