As we wish to provide the safest learning enviroment possible, all of our senior instructors and coaches are safety certified by the United States of America Gymnastics Association (USAG). Experts from this organization have developed a course to train instructors in all safety issues relating to gymnastics. In addition we have seven certified judges and two certified meet directors on our staff.
Information and Policies
One of the best investments you can make for your child is physical activity.
Choosing gymnastics will help provide your child with the foundation for
a lifetime of fitness and good health. We at Rising Star Gymnastics strive
to build your child’s physical bilities, self discipline, self-esteem
and self-confidence in a safe and fun environment.
Gymnastic Safety
Help us provide the best possible environment for your child’s learning. Please make sure your child is dressed in the proper outfit, with bare feet, long hair tied back and no jewelry. Make sure your child arrives on time so that he or she can receive the proper warm up.
Uniforms
Gymnasts are required
to dress in active playwear, leotards, shorts, or sweatpants. The
outfit must not restrict or impend the child’s ability to move.
For example, leotards with skirts may get caught on the apparatus. Clothing
with buttons or zipper may hurt the gymnast.
Viewing Policy
Parents and family are welcome to view classes at any time. However, disturbances
from the viewing area can distract both teacher and student. Please be
considerate of the teaching process and refrain from loud noises and comments.
Thank You.
Payment Policy
If you attend one or more classes per month, you are responsible for paying
for the entire month. You are paying for your child’s space in the
class. Each payment is due the 1st class of the month. Payments can now
be made using Visa/MasterCard, only in person - not by phone. top

Absences and Make-ups
Please inform us about upcoming absences. Your child may make up any absences
within 30 days by scheduling a makeup class. Let us know if your child
will not attend the scheduled make up class, or the absence will be considered

in a make-up class. Making up a missed class is a privilege provided by
Rising Star Gymnastics. No accumulation of make-ups is acceptable. Prolonged
