Your child's classes are guaranteed for as long as he/she is 'Actively Registered' (current month fees paid) If fees are owed, make-up classes are disallowed. In order to qualify for a makeup class, your child must be actively enrolled in a class within the current session.
All make-up class attendees must have booked the make-up class online and have it confirmed with the administrator in our office. Make-up classes are granted for "Excused Absences" only (must notify office before the class is missed) and can be booked after the class is missed and not before. No shows for any make-up class will result in the loss of class owed.
Missed classes are not refundable. A maximum of four (4) make-up classes will be allowed within one annual session (Sept to June) for each class enrolled in. These allowed make-up classes do not include closures due to statutory holidays or bad weather.
Your child's classes are guaranteed for as long as he/she is actively registered, by having the current month's fees paid for under recurring payments, post-dated cheque plan or 3-month cash payment plan. See each program for details.
Make-up classes must be reserved either in person, via email or phoning into your administrator if online services are not available.
Make-up classes are made by calling the administrator to arrange day and time or logging into your account directly and scheduling the make up class.
Make-up classes must be made up by the end of June of any given session and will not carry into the next session (current session is September 1, 2023 to June 30, 2024).
At Flipside Gymnastics, our 14 color/level ‘CanGym’ program has been modeled after the Gymnastics Canada Gymnastique (GCG) 'CanGym' national program. Within each color/level there is an average of 36 gymnastics skills that are distributed among the floor exercise, rings, vault, parallel and uneven bars, high bar, trampoline, pommel horse, and balance beam. These skills progress in their complexity as students master each successive medallion. The actual medallion is Gold in colour while the colour of the sticker represents progress being made.
Each time your child receives an award (Step 1, Step 2, or Mastered) he/she has the opportunity to either:
a.) move on to the next color/level; or
b.) advance within a color/level as per the following table.
Level 1 | Level 2 | Mastered |
0-60% completed | 61-85% completed | 86-100% completed |
The percentage range represents the total number of skills that have been successfully demonstrated by the student to the instructor. Stickers are place one on top of the other until the individual colour/level has been mastered. Once your child has mastered a level, he/she will begin work on the next level up and, upon the next testing session, a new medallion and a sticker will be issued. The medallions progress in difficulty as follows: Burgundy, Red, Tan, Bronze, Purple, Blue, Turquoise, Silver, Orange, Yellow, Green, Gray, White and Gold. For the Parent and Tot Program, the medals are Fall, Winter, Spring, and Summer.
The award ceremony is quite unique and presents the children an opportunity to experience the merit of all their efforts and training.
