Two forms of gymnastics offered for area youth

SANDPOINT — Two different forms of gymnastics will be taught in a coed recreational format for any and all area youth between the ages of 6–18 years-old.

Rhythmics is a beautiful activity that combines elements of ballet, gymnastics, dance and the manipulation of five different apparatus — balls, clubs, hoops, ribbon and rope into skills and routines to music.

Acrosport uses partners and groups working together to perform acrobatic skills of tumbling, lifts, balances, tosses and catches of partners in combination with dance. Gymnasts of all sizes are needed. Bases are bigger and strong; tops are petite.

Classes will be held on Wednesdays at Sandpoint Community Hall from Nov. 9 through Dec. 14, from 3:30–4:30 p.m. for beginners, and 4:30-5:30 p.m. for intermediates.

The fees are $40 county/$35 inside the city limits. There is a minimum of six participants required and a maximum of 12 participants allowed per session. Pre-registration is required by Nov. 4 at Sandpoint Parks and Rec (1123 Lake St.).
