Buckeye Stars: School Age Gymnastics for girls and boys

Is gymnastics training important because it teaches balance, quickness, strength, agility, flexibility, coordination, and grace? And since these basic skills form the building blocks for all sports and physical activities is gymnastics important because it gets them ready for a full and active life?

Or:

Is gymnastics training important because it develops courage, concentration, poise, and attention to detail?

Or,

Is such training critical because it teaches the children to get up and try again?

Or,

Is gymnastics training important because it teaches children that physical action is more fun than sitting in front of a TV or computer screen?

The answer… it is all of these and more!

What Makes Buckeye’s Buckeye Stars Classes So Special?

The first thing you notice when entering either of our gyms is how big, bright, and clean they are. Then you notice the equipment. Buckeye is packed wall-to-wall with state-of-the-art gymnastics equipment. We do not believe in lines so we do not offer one beam… we will have a eight. We don’t have one bar… we will have six. Not one trampoline… but two or three! See pictures of our gyms under facilities.

What you might not notice is the safety features built into the design of the gyms. The activity areas in our gyms are padded wall-to-wall. We expect our students to fall. In fact, we train the children how to fall. Then we teach them to get back up and try again. We also provide what seems like a zillion mats that sit on top of our wall-to-wall padding.

Then there are the pits. Pits are holes in the ground filled with foam. Think of a swimming pool with foam instead of water. We make good use of these pits as we teach harder skills or when the kids get up high. Falling into a pit is also great fun.

Then there are the trampolines. Most of our trampolines are installed in-ground so that the surface of the trampoline is at ground height.

There is nothing to fall off of. The few trampolines that are not in-ground have nets or mats around them so that the children cannot fall off of them.

Finally, our classes are small and our teachers are terrific and we teach them to be safe and in control and we watch the children closely.

Buckeye offers a free trial class and a 100% money back guarantee.

Finally, our teachers are really what make us so good. Our staff have experience not only as gymnasts, some are quite accomplished gymnasts, but also as teachers. Almost everyone is Safety Certified by USA Gymnastics and all new hires go through a national background check through USA Gymnastics. They also go through an extensive training period with Buckeye.
