Gymnastics will increase strength, flexibility, endurance and coordination. They will learn balance on the beam, as well as power when they vault. The bars and rings will encourage them to lift, swing and move their bodies in new ways. Gymnastics points out that gymnastics classes can help train children for any other sport they choose to pursue, as they get older
Gymnastics improves all around muscle strength and is fantastic for balance and posture. This is important whether it be balancing on a beam, sitting at a desk in class, or walking upstairs or along the street.
