Paragon will be closed on Sundays starting Sunday, July 18, 2010. We will resume Sunday Open Gyms and Birthday Parties on Sunday, September 12, 2010.

Have a Happy and Safe Summer!!

Paragon is starting a new Incentive Program to allow both child and parent to see the progression being made in their gymnastics class.  In order for a gymnast to advance to the next class level, she must acquire certain skills on each of the four events (Vault, Bars, Beam & Floor).  Each event will have the necessary skills needed to move up listed on a poster board so the gymnast knows which skills she needs.  Every gymnast will have a “Belt” (which you will need to purchase at the front desk for $2), which she may take home and decorate!  The gymnast will receive a stripe on her belt for each new skill that is required to move up.  When she has acquired all of her strips needed to move up, you will take the belt to the front desk to show that she is ready to advance to the next class level.  You will then need to purchase a new belt for the next level and take your fully decorated belt home to proudly display!

Please remember to bring your Belt with you to each practice!!!

Belts are required in order for your gymnast to advance to the next level.
