1. COOL GYMNASTIC
POSES FOR KIDS

3. Gymnastics is one sport that allows
kids to stretch their ability to
compete individually as athletes
while also learning how to work as
a team.

4. While parents love the confidence
that gymnastics classes promote as
kids learn how to perform tricks
under the safe guidance of an
experienced instructor …

5. … kids find the sport alluring due
to the wow factor of being able to
“fly through the air”.

6. While flips are impressive, some
of the most challenging moves
are those that are held in a static
position.

7. These cool gymnastics poses for
kids emphasize poise while also
developing the strength a
gymnast needs to perform
complicated routines.

9. This standing balance move is required in most gymnastics
floor routine competitions.

10. Although it looks simple from the stands, it requires strong
core muscles along with the ability to be able to do almost a
full split.

11. To perform a scale, a kid will simply bend forward or
backward while placing one leg straight out as they stand on
the other.

12. Proper body alignment is critical for performing the pose
correctly, which is important because the scale often is used
to lead into other moves such as a forward roll.

14. Splits demonstrate flexibility and it takes time for kids to master
this position. Through consistent stretching exercises, kids can
increase their flexibility until they are able to sit on the floor with
their legs in a split position.

15. x
It is also one move they can practice at home without any extra
equipment so that they can continue working on their goal when
they are not in class.

17. Handstands are an essential,
gymnastics pose that is one of
the first advanced skills that
kids master.

18. Usually, this skill is learned
through different stages with
kids first learning how to do a
headstand before starting to
use a wall for balance.

19. As kids progress in their
abilities, a spotter will assist
them until this position can be
held independently.

21. Many of the coolest gymnastics positions are designed to
emphasize a gymnast’s strengths. A planche shows off upper
body strength along with the athlete’s endurance.

22. At first glance, a planche looks like a basic plank or push-up
position, but it differs slightly due to how a gymnast places their
weight on their upper body rather than distributing it all over.

23. Over time, kids can even work their way up to lifting their feet and
legs off the floor so that they balance completely on their hands.

25. This strength position is commonly
used in men’s gymnastics, and it is
performed on the parallel bars or
rings. The L-Seat looks exactly like
its name implies.

26. To hold the position, a gymnast
places their hands on the rings or
bars and use their arms to maintain
a lift while keeping their legs
parallel to the floor.

27. Since this position requires serious
abdominal strength, it is one of the
more advanced moves that kids
work towards in their summer
camp gymnastics classes.

28. While kids look forward to their
time working on gymnastics
equipment such as trampolines
and balance beams, learning these
positions helps them master skills
both on the floor and as they fly
through the air.

29. Summer camps offer gymnastics classes that make
perfecting these poses possible while always maintaining
a safe environment for kids.

30. This way, every kid can reach their full potential for
mastering their goals as a gymnast.

31. Canadian Adventure Camp is a coed overnight summer
camp for kids located on a beautiful private island in the
wilderness lakes region of Temagami.

32. Founded in 1975, it provides acclaimed programs to
children from around the world!
