The I CAN DO! curriculum is a well-developed, innovative program for young and beginning students.

Gymnastics is a great foundational sport for children. Physically, it helps develop strength, coordination, flexibility, and poise. Through gymnastics, children develop confidence and often this carries over to other sports. They learn that physical activity is fun!

The equipment is specially designed for little hands. The “Motorics” (for preschool-aged children) feature two different ladders, a balance beam, slide, parallel bars and a rolling pin which can be arranged in any number of combinations of varying heights.  Because the bars are small enough for children to grasp securely, and equipment is low enough to the ground — children feel comfortable; students quickly learn and move through a rotation, developing strength and coordination and confidence and realize, “I Can DO this!”

The Junior Gym Equipment is designed for students ages 6-12. It is portable and adjustable and accommodates beginner and intermediate skills. The size of the equipment — besides being less intimidating than standard gymnastic equipment — allows students to DO the gymnastic skills themselves. Using junior equipment builds confidence and it helps gymnasts develop strength.

The I CAN DO! curriculum is written in age-appropriate Skill Books. Each book contains progressive gymnastic skills for the student to master before they are reviewed and signed by the instructor. Students also earn ribbons for completing entire sections (equipment event).

Initially new students are placed into a class by their age. Once they start their Skill Book they proceed at their own ability and move up to the next level once their Skill Book is complete. This takes approximately one year.

The Skill Book is a great tools for teaching goal setting. I Can Do! will teach children about setting worthy goals, the value of persistence and the importance of attitude…all within the context of gymnastics. They will have fun moving these principles beyond gymnastics!

We hope you will enjoy the I Can Do! Gymnastics program and becoming a part of our growing family. But if for any reason you are not completely satisfied we offer a 100% money back guarantee.

To better teach our students, it is standard practice for parents/guardians to drop off children for class or sit in our waiting room. This allows the instructor to have the students’ undivided attention, creating a safer and more focused learning environment.  However, we do realize parents may want to watch their child participating, and progressing, as well.  Therefore, during the first class of every month parents/guardians are invited to observe their student’s progress.  Feel free to set up chairs in the gym or dance room.

Please pick up and drop off your child at the Clearwater Studios front door, 126 E. Ross. We will try to start class promptly, so please allow enough time for your child to get inside and be ready to go. Also, please be sure to pick up your son or daughter as soon as class time ends so as not to disrupt the next class. There is a waiting room available inside if you wish to wait until class is finished.

Students are only allowed in the class area while their class is in session.  Instructors are not available to watch children before class time and many classes run back-to-back so please, be on time to pick up your child.  Children should always wait INSIDE until parents/guardians come to get them.  Gymnasts are discouraged from leaving the gym floor during class, so please be sure they have used the restroom and little ones have been given adequate hugs before class!

Only students and instructors are permitted on the gymnastics floor and equipment.
All other non-participants are not permitted at any time on the equipment or mats.
