Mighty Mites is a Talent Identification Program for girls aged 3.5 – 6 years in Women’s Artistic Gymnastics (often referred to as WAG). 

 

There are four events in which your daughter will begin her gymnastics education—Vault, Bars, Beam, and Floor. In this fundamental learning stage, our Mighty Mites will be taught in the areas of flexibility, strength, coordination, balance, agility, body awareness, alignment, and basic body positioning/shaping. CGC’s Women’s Artistic Program is a high-performance program that focuses on producing gymnasts for the Elite level of gymnastics (National, International and World class). Due to this directive, CGC seeks out girls that have the right attributes to conquer the physical and mental demands of the sport, as well as the commitment and drive to reach the top levels. If selected, your daughter will be in the first assessment level of our program, which may then lead to the Pre-Developmental Program in the future. In our tryout we are observing to see if they demonstrate certain qualities or physical attributes. A selection for Mighty Mites does not guarantee an indefinite position in the pre-competitive system, only the chance for us to work with her to teach and develop strong foundations and build upon their physical literacy.  Our structured classes teach the girls to be disciplined, but are also designed to be fun, enjoyable, and further their love of the sport. Regardless of a possible advancement in our program, the tools with which they master here will help them excel in any athletic endeavour ahead. Gymnastics is the basis of all sports.
