Homeschool Gymnastics Class

Hello fellow homeschool group leaders! I’m just passing along some info about a potential new homeschool gymnastics class at Excel Gymnastics in St. Charles, IL. They already offer this daytime class for homeschoolers in Batavia, and if we can create enough interest they will bring a class to St. Charles! Please pass this along to all the local homeschoolers you know and ask them to contact Amy directly with their interest (Amy’s e-mail address is at the bottom of this message).

Thanks!

Hi everyone,

We've been doing gymnastics classes through Excel Gymnastics in Batavia. I was talking to one of the managers after class today and he said they would open up another class to homeschoolers in their St. Charles location if there was enough interest. I told him that I would contact members of our group to see if there is any interest. We love these classes and the coaches (at the Batavia location) are fabulous. We have done gymnastics classes through the park district and other locations and our experience at Excel far surpasses these other classes. This is a great opportunity for exercise and I have even seen boosts in my kids self esteem since starting these classes. They offer classes for preschoolers at the same time, which is very nice for families with younger kids as well. Benjamin is in the homeschool class and Gabi does the preschool class.....it works out great and they both love it. So, here is what they are proposing to offer to homeschool families:

Existing class is on Thursdays from 11:00-12:00 for kids ages 6 and up. They also have preschool classes (3-4 years) and a Kindergym (5 year olds) at the same time (the preschool class is 45 minutes long). The class is at Excel Gymnastics in Batavia (2301 Main St., Batavia).

New Class: Suggested day/time is Wednesdays at 11:00-12:00 at the St. Charles location (3N800 Peck Road, St. Charles). Coach Tony said that there would be a preschool class (45 minutes) at the same time and that they could also combine 4 & 5 year olds for a Kindergym class as well. The homeschool gymnastics class would be for kids ages 6+.

The new session starts next week, but they said they could start the new homeschool class anytime (eg, if families were not ready to start next week). They need only 4 kids to start the class! Please email me ASAP if you would be interested in this class for one or more of your kids. Please let me know how many kids and their ages....and which location you would be most interested in. A note on location.....We live out in Carol Stream, and for us (according to Map Quest) there is a 3 minute difference between the St. Charles and Batavia location. If you live further east of St. Charles there may not be much difference in travel time to either location. If there is enough interest to get a new class going I will contact Coach Tony at Excel and let him know so that they can move forward with making these arrangements.

Thank you!
