Midwest Twisters’ girls recreational program begins at age 5. Classes are divided by ability. We teach gymnastics in a fun child-focused environment. FUN is the top priority and the physical benefits are second! Classes help develop self-confidence, motor-skills, balance, agility, speed, strength and more. Gymnastics serves as an excellent base for ALL sports. Give your child the edge and see how fun gymnastics can be!
