Physical activity is essential for your children to grow up happy and healthy. If you want to get your kids moving and teach them confidence, discipline, dedication and courage all while having fun, then recreational gymnastics is the solution.

Since 1999, The Victors Gymnastics has been offering award-winning gymnastics classes for girls and boys aged two and up in Rochester, NY. Children are introduced to gymnastics through The Victors' Tumble Bunny Gymnastics program, which offers playful tumbling classes and fun activities up to age four.

Gymnastics allows children to thrive in many ways that go far beyond just physical fitness. Here are three ways in which gymnastics classes can benefit child development:

• Physical: Gymnastics keeps children fit and active and is also a confidence-booster. Gymnastics training is also beneficial to children by giving them discipline, better balance and improved posture. It also promotes a healthy lifestyle, which helps reduce the risk of obesity, heart disease and diabetes in adulthood.
• Mental: When you enroll your child into recreational gymnastics for toddlers, it gives them a healthy sense of independence as they learn to separate from you for extended periods of time. This will prepare them for long school days in the near future and show them how adapt to new situations.
• Social: Gymnastics for toddlers, such as The Victors' Tumble Bunny Gymnastics program, allows children to strengthen their social skills as they interact with other children. They will learn to be respectful and patient while they learn to wait their turn on equipment. They will also learn to cooperate with their peers and resolve conflicts that might arise in a group setting.
