    The NEG Recreational Gymnastics program teaches physical fitness, coordination, and goal setting while building your child's strength and flexibility, confidence and self-esteem. Your child will learn different gymnastics skills and routines while socializing with other kids and having a lot of fun.

    Introduced at an early age, skills acquired in gymnastics can later help kids master other athletic activities and sports such as swimming, tennis and many more. It is about rebounding from failure, getting up off the mat and trying again, repeating things that feel hard or scary over and over again until they become second nature, and most importantly, it is about believing and trusting in yourself.

    At NEG, we believe gymnastics training is the ideal way to achieve the physical and emotional well-being of the children.

    We will strive for excellence, quality and innovation in every program and will support the aspirations and abilities of our gymnasts.

    Gymnastics presents opportunities for children to learn the skills of life at a very young age. It is a unique opportunity for special children to grow with dedication and determination, an opportunity to grow into respectful adults. No other sport offers a child the numerous valuable attributes inherent in gymnastics.

    • Gymnastics is the only sport that works total body strength, flexibility and aerobic development.

    • Gymnastics enhances gross motor skills.

    • Self-discipline is developed due to the very nature of the sport.

    • Self-confidence is built through individualized goals and accomplishments.

    • For any other sport, gymnastics is a way of developing strength and giving athletes that "added edge".

    • Early training results in increased kinesthetic awareness.

    • A NASA study showed that gymnasts have highly developed "vestibular mechanisms" which increase general learning, (academic as well as physical).
