Trampoline and Tumbling at ALAGYMNASTICS

Trampoline and Tumbling is an exciting and dynamic discipline that combines the thrill of jumping with the precision of acrobatics. This program focuses on developing aerial awareness, explosive power, and coordination through a variety of skills performed on trampolines and floor tumbling tracks. It’s fun, energetic, and perfect for anyone who loves to flip, jump, and move!

What is Trampoline and Tumbling?

This discipline includes two main components. Trampoline involves performing controlled jumps, twists, and flips on a regulation trampoline, building height and spatial awareness. Tumbling takes place on a spring-assisted runway or floor, where athletes perform series of acrobatic movements like handsprings, round-offs, and flips in a straight line. Together, they offer one of the most exciting ways to build athleticism.

What to Wear and Bring

Proper attire helps you move freely and safely during trampoline and tumbling classes.

• Clothing: Wear comfortable athletic wear that allows for easy movement. Fitted t-shirts and shorts or leggings work well. Avoid loose clothing that might get in the way.
• Footwear: Bare feet are standard for trampoline and tumbling to allow for better grip and feel.
• Hair: Long hair should be tied back securely and away from the face.
• Essentials: Bring a water bottle to stay hydrated during class. Jumping is hard work!
• Avoid: Jewelry, watches, or anything with sharp edges that could be unsafe or damage equipment.

We take safety seriously. All trampolines have safety padding, and our tumbling floors are spring-assisted for shock absorption. Class sizes are kept small to ensure proper supervision, and our coaches use progressions that ensure students master fundamentals before moving on to more advanced skills. Multiple spotters are present when students are learning new flips and twists.
