Does your son enjoy jumping, climbing, and tumbling? Does he want to be the next world-class gymnast or even the next best MLB player? Gymnastics is the foundation for any athlete and sport.
Did you know that gymnastics has so many important benefits for your growing son that go way beyond the gymnastics gym?
According to Olympic gold medalist Kyle Shewfelt in an interview with Chatelaine;
“Every little boy should be put in gymnastics, regardless of size."
He said, “It is the best place to teach kids what they need to exceed at other sports because they learn how their body works,”.
“It develops speed, power, and strength, as well as discipline and time management, and it’s really a shame that they don’t teach it in schools anymore.”
“It’s a fundamental sport and it’s fun! It’s like going to a gigantic playground, and it’s the perfect place for a crazy little boy to get his energy out,” said Shewfelt.
