Gymnastics classes offered

SANDPOINT — Two types of gymnastics are being offered for youth boys and girls between the ages of 6-18 years-old, with classes taught in a recreational format.

Rhythmics is a beautiful activity that combines elements of ballet, gymnastics, dance, and manipulation of five apparatus — ball, clubs, hoops, ribbon and rope — into skills and routines set to music.

Acrosport uses partners and groups working together to perform acrobatic skills of tumbling, lifts, balances, tosses and catches of partners in combination with dance. Gymnasts of all sizes are needed. Bases are bigger and strong. Tops are petite.

This next session is held on Feb. 21 through March 28, with registration deadline on Feb. 16. Classes take place at Community Hall (204 N. 1st Ave.) on Wednesdays, with beginners meeting from 3:30–4:30 p.m., intermediates from 4:30–5:30 p.m., and advanced from 5:30–6:30 p.m.

The fees are $43/session ($5 in-city discount).
