1st Grade and Up

JAG’s TeRRiFiCC Academy Program (TAP) is where athletes learn gymnastics in a fun, safe, and positive environment. The goal of the TAP Program is to help your child become a happier, healthier, more athletic individual with good character. Athletes follow JAG’s curriculum which is designed as a series of logical progressions and attainable goals. As a student in this program, children will benefit from increased physical activity and improvement in strength, flexibility and coordination, as well as an increased commitment to character based on the Character Counts™ Program and the Six Pillars of Character: Trustworthiness, Respect, Responsibility, Fairness, Caring and Citizenship (TeRRiFiCC). When students reach proficiency at a set of skills on an apparatus, they are invited to present their skills at a testing day where they are then presented with a medal for the event.

If a child has prior gymnastics experience, we ask that a short evaluation appointment be arranged to ensure appropriate placement.
