My kid has their front splits, is this class a good fit?
If your kiddo is willing to take feedback on their form (is their front split open or square, do they have their over split, pancake, or middle split), then this class is helpful. If your child can benefit from a deeper back bend or more open shoulders, then this class will be helpful.
My kid is a gymnast/ dancer/ figure skater… is this a good fit?
Yes.
We got stuck in traffic and there’s no recording, help!?
Families have a few options:
– Watch the class video ( a video is only created if at least 1 student attends, if no one shows up, we do not create a video)
What if we’re away for a week?
Families have a few options:
– Pause the subscription (your spot will not be held, but you are ahead of anyone on the waitlist)
– Stop the subscription ( you can re-enroll at any time)
My kid is really shy, can we just watch the video?
We do not provide class recordings as a regular service. Class participation allows the instructor to give feedback.
My kid is shy, can they have their camera off?
No. The instructor has to be able to see that all participants are safely performing the exercises.
