Rhythmic Gymnastics
Rhythmic Gymnastics
Rhythmic gymnastics is a women’s Olympic sport that combines a unique mixture of dance, art, and music. The sport develops a great variety of skills, including flexibility, agility, strength, endurance and posture. Rhythmic routines consist of elements from classical ballet, modern dance, and acrobatic movements, combining the elegance of ballet with the vigor of gymnastics.
Our classes are an excellent addition to any child’s healthy lifestyle. Rhythmic gymnastics is a high-intensity sport that includes strong conditioning exercises to help them gain muscle tone and develop balancing skills, while active exercises and stretching improve their flexibility. At the same time, children’s coordination skills are challenged and enhanced via apparatus work – ball, hoops, rope, clubs, and ribbons. Even when performed recreationally, the foundation of skills gained from rhythmic gymnastics can be applied in multiple other sports and social situations which require commitment, discipline, teamwork, and leadership skills.
Rhythmic gymnasts learn how to express themselves to the public through elegant and graceful movements while performing advanced apparatus work. The impressive virtuosity, flexibility and agility of intermediate and advanced gymnasts always awe any viewer.
Rhythmic gymnastics is the ultimate sport for any girl wishing to have both the grace and beauty of a ballet dancer and the athleticism of a gymnast.
