Comets (5‑6 years)

Description

Comets classes offer longer rotations on each Olympic apparatus and are appropriate for first time students and those moving up from our pre-school classes.

As your child progresses, we seek to develop such principles as: goal setting, time management, sportsmanship, dedication and discipline. All of these aspects of learning contribute to a positive self-image and personal success.

FAQ

Yes! Trial classes are available starting two weeks after the session begins. The cost is $45 for preschool classes or $50 for gymnastics classes. You must register online and schedule your visit with the front desk. Please note that we cannot guarantee a spot in a class without full payment for the entire session.

Recreational classes include 1 class per week for the entire session. Advanced invitational classes include 2 classes per week for the entire session.

Class lengths vary. Please check our class schedule for specific times.

Yes but a $35 switch fee applies for any class change initiated by a parent or guardian. The fee must be paid before the change takes effect.

The gymnast-to-coach ratio depends on the class type. Preschool classes have up to 7 gymnasts per coach. School-age classes have up to 9 gymnasts per coach. Advanced classes have up to 11 gymnasts per coach.

We recommend trying a trial class before committing to the full session. No credits or refunds are given for classes not attended and no refunds are given for cancellations.

Silver Stars may remain open even if local schools are closed due to weather or other events. If we do close we'll post a notification on our website at www.gosilverstars.com. For closures due to inclement weather a make-up class will be issued to your account. For closures due to other extraordinary circumstances you'll receive a credit for the cancelled class(es) valid for two full calendar years toward any Silver Stars activity.

Gymnasts must be able to follow directions and behave safely. If a gymnast's behavior compromises the safety or enjoyment of others including excessive pushing hitting biting or impulsive behavior we may ask that they not return to Silver Stars Gymnastics. Please be aware that the gym environment can be noisy and stimulating which may affect some children's behavior.

We do not offer payment plans or financial assistance. All activities must be paid in full before participation.

Yes as long as space is available. Siblings and visitors may participate after completing an online registration and paying the drop-in fee: $45 for preschool classes or $50 for gymnastics classes.

Yes! Our curriculum is designed so gymnasts can join at any point in the session. The cost is prorated based on the number of remaining classes.

Gymnasts may make up a maximum of one class per session. Make-ups must be completed by the end of the registered session and can be scheduled during any class that can accommodate your gymnast. We recommend scheduling your make-up as soon as possible as availability decreases toward the end of the session. Make-ups cannot be transferred to another session or gymnast and must be scheduled in advance with the office starting in week 2. No credits or refunds are given for missed classes. Special for Summer 2026 Session 6: Unlimited make-up classes are available! Make-ups must be scheduled one at a time and spots are based on availability. If a gymnast no-shows more than twice without notifying our Customer Care Team no additional make-ups will be issued.

Not necessarily. Gymnasts may make up a maximum of one class per session.

Make-ups cannot be transferred to another session or gymnast and must be scheduled in advance with the office starting in week 2. No credits or refunds are given for missed classes. Special for Summer 2026 Session 6: We're offering unlimited make-up classes! Make-ups must be scheduled one at a time and spots are based on availability.

Class placement is only guaranteed when registration is complete and full payment is made. Three weeks before the end of each session we offer a one-week priority re-sign period for current gymnasts to secure the same class day and time for the following session. After this period ends registration is first-come first-served and we cannot guarantee spots if the class fills up.
