Developmental Program

The following programs have been designed by Can-Am’s Developmental Director specifically for our club following Gymnastics Canada’s Long Term Athlete Development Model as well as the philosophies of Can-Am and its staff.

Pre-Developmental Programs

Endeavor
This sessional program is aimed at 3 year olds who show strong gymnastic physical attributes, listening skills, an eagerness to learn and can follow instructions. This pre-planned program focuses on physical preparation, basic gymnastic skill development and includes an aspect of learning through games and fun.

Aspire
This program is aimed at 4 year olds who show strong gymnastics physical attributes, listening skills, an eagerness to learn and can follow instructions. The Aspire program builds on the physical preparation and basic gymnastic skill development started in the Endeavor Program and still includes an aspect of learning through games and fun. At the end of the program which runs Sept. – June each athlete will be evaluated to determine the best further programming option. (Developmental, Venture or Advanced Recreational).

Venture
This Program is designed for 5 and 6 year old gymnasts to explore their abilities in artistic, rhythmic and trampoline gymnastics. At the end of the Venture Program season which runs Sept. – June each athlete will be evaluated and provided with information about the program they are best suited to.
