FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

We know you’ve got questions — and we’ve got answers! Whether you’re new to GRIT Gymnastics or a returning family, here’s everything you might want to know about our programs, policies, and what to expect.

  • Do you offer a free trial class?

    Yes! We’re excited to welcome new families. Most of our classes offer a free trial lesson, so your child can experience the gym before committing. Contact us or sign up online to schedule yours.

  • Do you offer makeup classes?

    Yes, we do! If your child misses a class, our system will issue a makeup token that you can redeem through the Parent Portal, by emailing us at info@gritgymnasticsclub.com, or by calling or texting us. You can also use these same methods to cancel a class in advance.

  • What should my child wear to class?

    We recommend a leotard or comfortable athletic clothing. Hair should be tied back, and no jewelry please. Bare feet are best—no socks or shoes on the gym floor.

  • What class should I enroll my child in?

    Most of our classes are organized by age, but we also offer more challenging classes (such as Pre-Team, Advanced, and Competitive Teams) based on skill level. If you’re not sure where to start, reach out—we’re happy to help place your child in the best fit!

  • How do team invitations work?
    • Pre-Team is non-competitive and athletes can join at any point during the year by coach recommendation.
    • We also host Team Tryouts on specific dates during the year.
    • If you’d like your child evaluated for Pre-Team or are interested in joining our competitive team, please contact the front desk to schedule an assessment.
  • What are the parent viewing options?

    We have a dedicated Family Area with comfortable viewing space, so you can watch your child’s class. There’s also a play space for siblings, a homework table, and a coffee bar for parents to enjoy.

  • Can I bring my other kids?

    Yes! We’re a family-friendly gym. Siblings are welcome to hang out in the Family Area, where there’s a play zone and space for quiet activities.

  • What are your class ratios?

    We care deeply about safety and quality instruction. Our typical coach-to-student ratios are:

    • Preschool & Pre-Team: 6:1
    • Academy (Recreational Classes): 8:1
    • Team: 10:1 (often fewer)

    We also adjust ratios (sometimes higher/lower) as needed to ensure the best learning environment.

  • What if my child has a disability?

    We want every child to feel welcome at GRIT.

    • Parents/guardians/instructional aids are allowed to join their child on the floor as an aid if needed (with a signed waiver).
    • We offer Everybody Moves, a class specifically designed for children with disabilities that require parent support.
    • While our facility is ADA compliant, gymnastics involves mats and uneven surfaces. We’re happy to discuss accommodations and work with your family’s specific needs. Just ask—we’re here to support you.

  • Do you take charter funds?

    Yes! We work with charters and are willing to work with yours.

  • Do you have anything for homeschoolers?

    Yes we do! We offer a playgroup for ages 6 and under on Tuesdays and Fridays at 11 AM. We also offer daytime classes for homeschool physical education enrichment. We'd love to help you with your PE credits.
