An Innovative Learning Experience for Your Child


Beginning this spring and continuing through the summer, T.A.G. The Academic Gym is excited to announce a unique program. We are blending early gymnastics and literacy skills to create a holistic learning experience for your child. This innovative approach offers many benefits, ensuring that your child enjoys a well-rounded development.


Developing Physical and Cognitive Skills


Children have an incredible ability to learn when they are engaged in interactive activities. While they are mastering balance and coordination during gymnastics, they are also learning new words and concepts. This connection between movement and language makes the process fun and effective. As they tumble, balance, and stretch, they are also expanding their vocabulary.


This dual approach supports the development of both the body and the mind. As your child learns to move confidently, they simultaneously enhance their cognitive abilities. The dynamic interaction between physical activity and language learning helps solidify concepts in a playful environment.


The Importance of Movement in Learning


Research shows that movement plays a crucial role in children's learning processes. Engaging physical activities help stimulate brain development. When children move, they are more likely to retain information. This program at T.A.G. capitalizes on that method, ensuring that your child learns effectively.


In tennis, for example, players must track the ball, making quick movements while focusing on their strategy. Similar skills are developed in gymnastics, where children learn coordination, timing, and focus. This is where our gymnastics classes come into play.


A Fun and Engaging Atmosphere


At T.A.G., we believe that learning should not be a chore. Instead, we aim to create a joyful and energetic atmosphere. Children thrive in environments where they can express themselves freely. Our colorful and playful setting encourages creativity and exploration.


In addition to gymnastics, interactive storytelling sessions will also be incorporated into our classes. Children will be encouraged to not only participate in physical activity but also engage in discussions about the stories they hear. This reinforces their literacy skills without losing the fun of movement.


Join Us at Our Walden Gymnastics Studio


Classes will be held at our Walden Gymnastics Studio. This facility is fully equipped to provide a safe and stimulating environment for children. With our expert instructors, your child will receive personal attention in a group setting. It is our goal to nurture every child’s potential through our programs.
