BIO Gymnastics Celebrates the Right to Play

BIO Gymnastics, along with USAG and clubs across the country joined together in celebrating National Gymnastics Day on Saturday, September 21st. This year, USA Gymnastics and Right To Play, a global organization that uses sport and play programs to educate and empower children facing adversity, announced the partnership earlier this year. Through special events and community outreach, the two organization's goal is to provide opportunities for under-served children to experience both gymnastics and the power of participating in sports.

It is in this same spirit that BIO Gymnastics & Athletics Unlimited announces their own "BIO Ability to Play" program by offering classes specifically designed for developmentally delayed children.

This program is focused on the development of a child's attention span and motor movement through agility complex, sport games and acrobatics. Strength and flexibility development will be included. The fun of the program will entice your child to take part in and successfully complete both mental and physical tasks. There is NO sense of failure when the negativity is removed. Through this specific program, children will have the opportunity to step outside themselves, to develop and thrive, because every child has the ability to play.
