Prep-optional gymnastics team program is specifically designed for the gymnasts who want to compete, but want an alternate to the traditional J.O level system (1-10). Prep-optional is a rapidly growing program nationwide. It allows gymnasts to perform routines with more variety of skills and less commitment to hours in the gym ( for example level 4’s come in 7.25 hours/ week and have routines with back handsprings, handstand forward roll, handstand bridge and prep opt’s can put in many different skills and their training is three hours a week).
