IGS Gymnastics Philosophy |
|
International Gymnastics School (IGS) strives to provide students with the latest in gymnastics education. It is important for children of all ages to encounter physical challenges in a class experience where they may enjoy movement and the satisfaction of success. IGS implements a philosophy for early childhood development. We believe in the importance of fun and skill mastery, with no emphasis on competition at this level. It is the nature of competition to produce winners and losers, and young children are not able to separate performance from self-concept. Repeated exposure to losing tends to create a diminished belief in one's ability projecting throughout adulthood. We build a well-rounded foundation of gymnastics in classes with peers. Classes are based on age and not athletic ability.
