Mommy & Me:  Students must be accompanied by a parent or guardian to attend this class.  Your little one will learn safety rules for all of the equipment while strengthening their bodies and learning the basics of tumbling. There will be an emphasis on balance and coordination. 

Preschool:  Bye bye parents!  In this class the students will continue to learn gym safety.  Skills that they will be learning include forward & backward rolls, bridges, handstands, bridge kickovers and cartwheels.  Back handsprings will be introduced.

Beginner:  Students will work on forward & backward rolls, bridge kickovers, front limbers, cartwheels and back handsprings.  No experience required.

Advanced Beginner:  Once students have mastered both forward and backward rolls, cartwheels, roundoffs and are well on their way to back handsprings, they will be moved to this class.  Some of our youngest competitors are in these classes.

Under Flipping:  This class will cover every skill taught in the beginner classes.  Additional skills to be learned include front walkovers, back limbers, back walkovers and round-offs.  At this level, the students will focus on learning back handsprings on the tumbl-trak and trampoline with the introduction of back aerial somersaults.

Clinic Classes:  These classes are sign-up only.  They will work specific skills.  Clinic times are set but the skills learned will rotate and will be posted on our calendar on the bulletin board next to the desk.  Some examples of clinic classes are as follows: front tumbling; tucks, picks, straights; intermediate passes; twisting.     

Flipping:  Students must be able to do both front and back walkovers.  All skills taught in the beginner and under flipping classes will be covered.  At this level students will be expected to learn back handsprings on the rod floor and aerial back somersaults on the tumbl-trak or trampoline.

Jr./Sr.:  This class is designed for the older student who wants to learn to tumble.  Whether it is for cheerleading or a personal goal, this class will get you flipping.

Pre-team:  This class is invite only for the students who aspire to compete.  The main focus will be to work on the skills necessary to compete and be invited into a team class.  This class will allow the younger students to compete and give them self confidence in their abilities.  This class will not be intense and will focus on positive reinforcement. Any athlete interested in competing should talk with their coach.

Team:  Team classes are invitation only.  In order to be invited into a team class, the student must be able to do a back handspring series (2 or more).  These classes are more intense than our recreational classes.  Team classes include 30 minutes of conditioning.

Add ons:  Our coaches have the flexibility to add a class they feel is needed.  These classes will be posted on the calendar for sign-up only.  Each class will work specific skills like our clinic classes but will not be on a set schedule.  We must have at least 5 sign-up or the class will be cancelled.

Cheer Private:  If your cheer squad would like to come in all together, we arrange a time that works for your group.  We offer tumbling instruction from our staff and the opportunity for your coach to use our full spring floor to work on stunting and cheers as a group.  Special pricing is available for groups of 10 or more.

Recreational cheerleading:  This class teaches the basics of cheerleading including arm motions, jumps and an introduction to stunting.  For fun, some cheers and dances may be learned.  Entire stunt groups or squads are welcome to come learn in a safe environment by calling 309-788-FLIP(3547).

Competitive Cheerleading: The QC Comets Allstar Cheer Team call QCXA home.  They work on competitive routines that consists of dance, cheer, tumbling and stunting.  They do competitions in the fall and winter months.  If you are interested, please contact the gym.

Tumble/Stunting:  Calling all serious cheerleaders.  This class will work on tumbling and stunting.  Both skills are needed to be a sucessfull cheerleader.  Whether you base or fly, this class will help you master either or both.  We will split the time evenly between both skills. 

Open gym:  Open gym is available for our students to work on what ever they choose.  Open gyms will always be run by one of our coaches.  If the student wants help on a specific skill, just let the coach know.  Although this is not as structured as our classes, the coaches are there to coach.  

NOTE:  Each student will be evaluated in their first class.  This will give our coaches the opportunity to place them in the class that fits them the best.
