PRESCHOOL GYMNASTICS LESSON PLANS
Gymnastics lesson plans are an important part of safe and progressive training. Physical and tactical preparation leads to skill development. Keep in mind, while spotting is an important part of gymnastics, it is not a substitute for strong fundamental development.
First, develop a set of skill requirements. Break each skill down into smaller parts to identify a natural set of progressions. Hence, the progressions lead to a more complicated set of skills as level increases. Especially relevant, a vital part of all gymnastics training includes a strong fundamental base.
