Elite Tumbling, Sandy

At Elite Tumbling, all of the introductory lessons are private, ensuring each student masters fundamentals like back tucks and back handsprings before graduating to higher-level group classes. Along the way, instructors encourage kids to challenge themselves with new moves, all while emphasizing safety. Gymnasts of all levels can don the school's spotting belts, and specialized mats and trampolines cushion falls. Snowboarders and skiiers also benefit from the high-tech safety equipment—the school's system of bungee belts allows them to practice aerial moves before they hit the slopes.
