This class is designed for toddlers. Children participate in class accompanied by one parent. It is a 45-minute class offered once a week, at TAC, walking to 2 year old classes and 2 to 3 year old classes are 30 minutes. Classes at ISSH and NIS, a maximum of 35 students are taught by four to five instructors. At TAC, a maximum of 12 students (due to the room size). Children go through a brief warm-up exercise to music. The instructor demonstrates the exercises in front of the class and the parents assist their children. We have tumbling exercises where we teach basic skills such as forward rolls, motor coordination skills, and stretching. Every child does back handsprings with support by their parents. Other skills are taught on the trampoline, bars, and beam. We often have an obstacle course.
