common questions
WHICH TUMBLING CLASS IS RIGHT FOR MY CHILD?
- Age 18 months – 5 years: Preschool Tumbling
- Ages 6+: Fundamentals, Beginner, Intermediate, or Advanced
Eligibility for the different tumbling programs is based on the level of skills demonstrated at a tumbling evaluation. Contact your gym for more information or download the Flips! Tumbling Info Packet.
WHAT IS THE TUMBLING EVALUATION PROCESS?
Tumble Assessments at CheerVille happen every other month, offering a chance to track athlete progress and get feedback. Register via the Parent Portal for the assessment or schedule a private lesson if you can’t make it. Ohio evaluations are done in regular class time.
Classes like Famous Fives, Flips! Fundamentals, AS Fundamentals, and AS Levels 1-5 are evaluated regularly. To level up, athletes need 3 STARS to show mastery. After leveling up, consistent skill maintenance is expected and inconsistent skills may mean moving down for refinement.
During assessments, skills are rated as Attempted, Needs Improvement, or Mastered. Athletes get two attempts per skill during evaluations.
- Attempted (skill was attempted, but did not complete correctly)
- Needs Improvement (technique was lacking or skill was inconsistent)
- Mastered (technique was strong, skill is consistent)
If you miss the Tumbling Assessment, schedule a private lesson with an authorized coach.
WHERE ARE REPORT CARDS LOCATED?
Coaches will provide feedback under each skill for areas of improvement. To view your athlete’s evaluation results:
- Go to the Parent Portal
- Select Evaluations
- Select Class
WHAT IF WE MISS OUR SCHEDULED TUMBLING CLASS?
As a courtesy, we offer makeup tokens for missed classes. You can use these tokens in your Parent Portal to schedule a makeup class. You are limited to 2 makeup tokens per month, however, if you miss more than two classes in one month, please consult the Parent Portal to find a class that works better for your schedule. Athletes who miss 3 classes in one month may be dropped from the class.
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE GYM IS CLOSED FOR A HOLIDAY?
When the gym is closed, makeup tokens will be given for all tumble, flyer, flex, and jump classes. We will remain open for all scheduled private lessons and birthday parties over the holidays. Makeup tokens for gym closures do not count towards your 2-token monthly limit.
WHAT IF MY ATHLETE IS STRUGGLING WITH A SKILL?
Each month, your gym provides tumbling skill clinics that are geared toward skill-specific drills for focused training. Athletes may also schedule private lessons with an authorized coach for one-on-one support.
