What is Fast Track?
Fast-Track is comprised of PreTeam and HotShots. It is a growing developmental program designed to progress gymnasts to the competitive team at an accelerated pace.
This program is invitation only and offered to students that have demonstrated exceptional skill progression, strength, and work ethic in our regular school aged and Short Wheelers classes. These classes are structured differently than a regular class, and focus on conditioning/strength, shaping, flexibility, form, and discipline. This allows for greater focus on the specific skills each child needs to advance, while also providing additional practice time. We are also now offering an even earlier, and younger option, “Fire Crackers” for advanced preschool aged gymnasts. All Fast Track programs are a year-long commitment.
Our coaches & instructors are USAG members and SafeSport Certified!
HotShots
This Fast Track program for the advanced very young gymnasts (typically ages 4-6.) Most athletes in HotShots are recommended by their Short Wheelers or Intro/Gym 1 coaches because they demonstrate a lot of strength, excellent listening skills, and eagerness to work hard. This accelerated program prepares gymnasts for our PreTeam program. HotShots focuses on the foundations of gymnastics, and learning, and building on the most important basics. HotShots practices 2 times per week, for 2 hours each practice. They concentrate more on conditioning/strength, flexibility, and discipline than a regular recreational gymnastics class.
Pre Team
The Women’s Developmental Program (WDP) PreTeam is the Fast Track program that directly prepares gymnasts for our competitive Women’s Developmental Program team (formally USAG’s “Junior Olympic Program.”) This program focuses on acquiring and improving the required skills for WDP compulsory gymnastics. It focuses heavily on conditioning/strength, flexibility, discipline, learning new skills and perfecting current ones. The WDP PreTeam practices 3 times per week, for 3 hours each practice, and is for young gymnasts who are strongly dedicated to, and interested in gymnastics. PreTeam gymnasts are typically ages 7-9.
Xcel PreTeam is a program designed to prepare gymnasts for the Xcel competitive team at inMovement (Xcel description can be found on the TEAM page.) This program is invitation-only and offered to Gym 3 gymnasts who have mastered most of their skills and show an interest in competing. Gymnasts will practice under the Xcel team coaches focusing on achieving their requirements, building the strength to accomplish these skills, and will learn routines as they practice. Xcel PreTeam practices 2.5 hours twice a week. Gymnasts are usually 8-14years old, most popularly ages 10-11.
