Recreational ZOOM Gymnastics- Online Classes
Covid-19 has disrupted all of our lives. It has forced us to change so many of our daily routines including exercise and physical activity programs. Although our facility has re-opened for live classes and is following strict safety protocols, we understand that there are still many of you who are not yet comfortable returning to live programs. We are please to offer this exciting option to you to help keep your children active and healthy!
Session 1 runs July 4-July 29, 2020

These live classes are designed to get your youngster active and moving. Classes focus on basic stretches, body shapes, skill positions, and play based exercises. A parent or guardian MUST accompany and supervise the child for the duration of the class.

New Programs running starting this weekend!
All accounts are now up to date. Any cancelled trainings from October which have not yet been made up have been credited to member accounts.
As most of you have already realized the conditions concerning restrictions on sports facilities are changing faster than we can keep up with.
We have ramped up our Covid response and protocols in order to best protect all of our participants and staff. We have recently modified our space to be able to accommodate 2-3 small groups at one time and will be offering Developmental Training in a greatly reduced capacity over the course of the next 3 weeks.
With the chance of a complete lockdown in York, Toronto and Peel Regions being a very real possibility we have opted to complete program registrations manually through the office rather than posting them online. In this way we will retain control over all billings and be able to charge our clients on the day of each program as we confirm that the program will be able to run.
To reserve a spot in our 3 week program please send an email to us at richmondhillgymnastics@bellnet.ca .
We will require:
-
The full name of your son or daughter
-
The program day that you would like to register for.
-
The program time that you are requesting.
(REMEMBER- TRAINING IS THE SAME DAY AND TIME EACH WEEK)
Spaces are very limited and will be allocated on a first come first served basis.
If we are able to accommodate your request we will send you and email confirmation for your registration. If the program that you are looking for is full, we will contact you to help you select another day/ time.
Each training day will be charged to your account individually on a day by day basis as we confirm that the program is able to operate that day. Please check our website for updates before reporting for training.
