Gymnastics is one sport that allows kids to
stretch their ability to compete individually as
athletes while also learning how to work as a
team.
4
While parents love the confidence that gymnastics
classes promote as kids learn how to perform
tricks under the safe guidance of an experienced
instructor
5
kids find the sport alluring due to the wow
factor of being able to fly through the air.
6
While flips are impressive, some of the most
challenging moves are those that are held in a
static position.
7
These cool gymnastics poses for kids emphasize
poise while also developing the strength a
gymnast needs to perform complicated routines.
8
FRONT AND BACK SCALE
9
This standing balance move is required in most
gymnastics floor routine competitions.
10
Although it looks simple from the stands, it
requires strong core muscles along with the
ability to be able to do almost a full split.
11
To perform a scale, a kid will simply bend
forward or backward while placing one leg
straight out as they stand on the other.
12
Proper body alignment is critical for performing
the pose correctly, which is important because
the scale often is used to lead into other moves
such as a forward roll.
13
FRONT AND STRADDLE SPLITS
14
Splits demonstrate flexibility and it takes time
for kids to master this position. Through
consistent stretching exercises, kids can
increase their flexibility until they are able to
sit on the floor with their legs in a split
position.

It is also one move they can practice at home
without any extra equipment so that they can
continue working on their goal when they are not
in class.
16
HANDSTAND
17
Handstands are an essential, gymnastics pose that
is one of the first advanced skills that kids
master.
18
Usually, this skill is learned through different
stages with kids first learning how to do a
headstand before starting to use a wall for
balance.
19
As kids progress in their abilities, a spotter
will assist them until this position can be held
independently.

PLANCHE
21
Many of the coolest gymnastics positions are
designed to emphasize a gymnasts strengths. A
planche shows off upper body strength along with
the athletes endurance.
22
At first glance, a planche looks like a basic
plank or push-up position, but it differs
slightly due to how a gymnast places their weight
on their upper body rather than distributing it
all over.
23
Over time, kids can even work their way up to
lifting their feet and legs off the floor so that
they balance completely on their hands.
24
L-SEAT
25
This strength position is commonly used in mens
gymnastics, and it is performed on the parallel
bars or rings. The L-Seat looks exactly like its
name implies.
26
To hold the position, a gymnast places their
hands on the rings or bars and use their arms to
maintain a lift while keeping their legs parallel
to the floor.
27
Since this position requires serious abdominal
strength, it is one of the more advanced moves
that kids work towards in their summer camp
gymnastics classes.
28
While kids look forward to their time working on
gymnastics equipment such as trampolines and
balance beams, learning these positions helps
them master skills both on the floor and as they
fly through the air.
29
Summer camps offer gymnastics classes that make
perfecting these poses possible while always
maintaining a safe environment for kids.
30
This way, every kid can reach their full
potential for mastering their goals as a gymnast.
31

summer camp for kids located on a beautiful
private island in the wilderness lakes region of
Temagami.
32

to children from around the world!
