Junior Olympic (JO) gymnastics is a competitive program for Levels 2-10 that was developed to help gymnasts build a solid foundation in the sport of gymnastics and safely advance through the levels.
The Women's JO Program has two major groups: Compulsory and Optional.
The difference between Optional and Compulsory is the type of routines they can perform. For Optionals, there are only 4-5 routine requirements and each gymnast can have her routine choreographed for her personality and individual strengths and weaknesses. Whereas in compulsory levels, the routine is already choreographed, and every gymnast must perform the same routine.

The Xcel program was created in 2013 as an alternative to the more rigorous Junior Olympic (J.O.) program. It is a great way for gymnasts to become more involved in the sport and attend fun competitions as well as to provide them with a healthy level of challenge and commitment to their training.

Everyone! Xcel gives families and gymnasts an opportunity to experience a fun competitive environment with less time and financial commitment. Beginner gymnasts interested in competition are highly encouraged to inquire about our Xcel program and explore their passion for gymnastics; advanced gymnasts can enroll in Xcel as a fun way to stay active and involved in the sport. Gymnasts will be evaluated by coaches and given a recommendation on which program and level to train.
Although Xcel is separate from the J.O. program, gymnasts can transfer to J.O. if they are looking for a more rigorous dedication to the sport; likewise, J.O. gymnasts can transfer to Xcel if they want to spend a little less time training or even compete new skills and routines in the Xcel program during their off-season.
Those who are interested in transferring from Xcel to J.O. can be introduced to our Hybrid Program, which gives them the opportunity to train J.O. routines. This is additional commitment and training on top of regular Xcel practice and is invite-only based on coach recommendation. Our aim is to provide each gymnast with a challenge and mold a path for their success!
This class is designed to help students advance on to either the Xcel team or JO team.
THIS CLASS IS INVITATION ONLY.
Practice is held twice a week.
