The Sport Success Pathway is an enriched gymnastics program designed to support families to raise self-confident kids who thrive in all sports
With over 2 million active coaching hours and counting, Jump Gymnastics has become the leader in recreational gymnastics.
With that knowledge, we developed The Sport Success Pathway just for families like yours. Our step-by-step program is broken down into six distinct levels. Each level focuses on different skills that all add up to maximum success in all sports.
The Sport Success Pathway is a term based program that is designed for children between the ages of 2 and 7. Each term, we have a limited number of spaces for little athletes to join the Sport Success Pathway.
Get started by joining Yellow Level and Getting Connected
During this first level (and term!) we're dedicated to making sure your family is set up for success!
You and your child will meet our coaches and learn all about the program and safety in the gym. We'll make sure that when you have questions you know exactly where to find the answers.
Our coaches will take the time to connect with your little athlete and you.
You'll feel seen, heard, and welcome in our purpose built facilities.
At the end of the Yellow Level your child will…
Know their coach and classmates
Know the class routines
Know about safety and the rules in the gym
Know how to ask for help when they need it
Have mastered the main skills of Yellow Level and be ready for Green Level

During the term your little athlete will receive their very own Individualized Learning Card (or ILC for short!). ILCs allow us (and you!) to follow your child’s progress on some of the 1000s of skills that your little athlete will be exposed to throughout their time on the Sport Success Pathway. You will see some main skills on your child’s ILC and your child’s coach will help determine the smaller skills (called progressions!) that will ultimately add up to the main skill.

Tuck, pike, straddle balance positions
