Tumble 84 is dedicated to the development of the youth athlete. Our goal is to encourage, challenge and motivate each student to their potential and create a safe family environment that is fun; using a common sense progressive approach endeavoring to develop and improve skills as well as maintain and establish the fitness of the athlete.

Tumbling / gymnastics is a great activity which helps improve physical fitness, as well as helps children learn life skills such as goal setting, overcoming fear, and it increases a child’s self esteem in a healthy and safe environment. Like physical fitness and good health, gymnastics is a yearly program. Our program follows the traditional school year, September – May.

Our program is under the direction of Coach Carl Cody. Coach Carl is a certified coach with over 20 years coaching experience in tumbling/gymnastics.

What to Wear

We get a lot of questions on what your child should wear. We recommend comfortable athletic clothing. If your little one wants to wear a leotard that is great and we cannot wait to see them in it, however it is not mandatory at our gym. The coaches do discourage the wearing of just sports bras. If a sports bra is going to be worn, please have a tank top or t-shirt over it. Please also ensure their hair is tied back and out of the way.
