Incredible Benefits of Gymnastics for Toddlers
· Enhanced flexibility and posture:
Gymnastics promotes flexibility, which is another great quality that helps to reduce the chances of injury
· Confidence and self-esteem:
Learning to work within a class and performing with others can boost their confidence and overall self-esteem.
· Strength coordination and balance:
When performing the body strengthening exercises involved with gymnastics, your little one will enhance their upper body, lower body, and overall core strength as a result.
· Physical, social and emotional skills:
Your child can improve communication and engagement with children their age as well as adults.
· Patience:
Practicing standing in line for short periods of time and containing your excitement as you wait for your turn on the trampoline are just a couple of ways gymnastics teaches patience.
· Discipline:
Combining listening, respect for rules and patience leads to discipline.
· Following directions:
Gymnastics teaches kids to follow multi-stepped directions.
· Safety:
Listening to the rules of how we keep ourselves safe in the gym helps children learn how to follow rules at home and school
