The Victors Gymnastics, home of New York State and Region 6 Gymnastics Champions in Greece, NY, is one of the country’s most elite gymnastics training centers. Their team of professional gymnastics trainers know how important challenging extracurricular activities are when it comes to building a well rounded, happy child and they’ve seen firsthand how gymnastics training benefits kids physically, mentally and emotionally.

Here are just a few of the many ways your children can benefit from gymnastics:

• Strength-Building: It’s no secret that gymnasts are strong and powerful athletes. Gymnastics training forces kids to master balance, strength, endurance, and flexibility, which results in a svelte strong frame. 
• Lifelong Health Benefits: The type of strength training involved in gymnastics can actually make children’s bones more dense, and increased flexibility protects them from future injury.
• Character-Building: Gymnastics also benefits kids mentally because it teaches them valuable lessons that they can apply in other areas of their life. They learn discipline when they’re in the gym training, and perseverance when they have to practice something over and over again to nail it. They learn about commitment and responsibility by always making it to practice on time and creating a routine.
  
• Mental Well-Being: Finally, training in gymnastics promotes emotionally well being. Gyms are like teams and for kids who train in gymnastics, their gym becomes their second family. The friendships kids forge with their teammates and the respect they have for their trainers gives them a real sense of community. No matter what drama they might experience at home or at school they know they can always depend on their gym time to help them relax and focus on being in the moment.

From pre-school gymnastic classes where kids learn to improve their motor skills and follow directions to advanced tumbling classes and regional competitions— kids who train at The Victors Gymnastics are prepared for life.
