Activities for Life at Frostburg State University will offer a beginner tumbling class for children ages 5 to 12 years and an intermediate tumbling class for more experienced tumblers on Mondays, March 25 through April 22, in room 106 of the Cordts Physical Education Center. The beginner class will be held from 6 to 7 p.m. and the intermediate class will be from 7 to 8 p.m.
The beginner class will include basic floor tumbling exercises and some work on the low balance beam.
For the intermediate class, requirements are a solid cartwheel and working toward a solid round-off. Athletes will work on skills leading to a back handspring, such as handstand holds, forward rolls, snap downs, jump-backs on a cheese mat, right-/left-side cartwheels, one-armed cartwheels, aerials with spot, backbend kick overs with spot and front handsprings over a barrel.
Space in both classes is limited to 15 participants with a minimum of seven. Instructors are Eugene Younger, Emily Murray and Cat Ardoin.
