This is a 45 minute, parent-aided, structured gymnastics class.

Often, 3-year-olds need special attention due to their size, fear, or adjusting to being on their own. This class is intended to bridge our Scooter class and our Mitey 4 class. Mitey 3’s is designed much like our Mitey 4’s class with the parents aiding their child through specific gymnastic circuits and stations.

This class is for 3-year-olds who are ready for more structure and instruction. Young 4-year-olds who are not quite ready for Mitey 4’s are also welcome.

This is a structured class with full parental participation. For safety reasons, younger siblings are required to be either in a carrier or stroller and older siblings must be able to entertain themselves in bleachers or on the foam letters by the mirrors during the entirety of the Parent/Child class time. Parents may also drop off siblings to KidZone at the Ft. Meigs YMCA main branch for the duration of Parent/Child class time.

Coach placement ONLY.
