GIRLS GYM JAM

1st Grade & Up


Encourage growth. Teach gymnastics. 


Welcome to Gym Jam!
Gym Jam is where kids LOVE to learn! We take the incredible sport of gymnastics and break it into challenging and achievable steps for kids of all levels. Keeping kids engaged in the learning process is the first step to teaching them some pretty cool gymnastics skills!


Why Gym Jam?
At Kids First, we believe all kids want to learn; our goal in Gym Jam is to infuse fun into that process. Our Gym Jam Program has been a leader in gymnastics for school age children for over three decades. We teach kids that learning to tackle challenges in the gym is a critical part of growth, and the reward is confidence, independence and a deep feeling of accomplishment.


Progressive Lesson Plans
Girls Gym Jam is an instructional gymnastics program for girls in 1st grade through teens. Each class is specifically designed to blend progressive skills and drills within the four disciplines of women's gymnastics; bars, beam, floor, vault. Our groups are designated by age and each child is challenged within their group according to their ability; 1st-2nd grade, 3rd-4th grade, 5th grade and up. 


Recreational Competitive Option

As a Gym Jam student progresses in class, an instructor may recommend a more competitive option. This is for students who are interested in more training time, challenge, and attention to technique and detail. Our Recreational Competitive Program begins with Power Jammers and requires an assessment by the Gym Jam Department Leader. Each Gym Jam coaches will consistently assess the progress of each student and will recommend a Power Jammer evaluation to those who demonstrate readiness.

Department Leader
Rachel Cooley

Rachel is a 2024 Miami University graduate with a degree in Kinesiology and Biomedical Engineering! She was a competitive gymnast for 16 years before competing with Miami University’s club team.


Rachel's coaching experience spans 10 years prior to her time at Kids First, and includes boys and girls instructional programming, girls compulsory through Level 3, and parent-child classes.

"Every child needs someone who believes in them and a safe place to be active. Gymnastics is the best way I know how to accomplish this for every child, and Kid First is a great place to do it."


My teaching philosophy is to give every child something new to walk away with. Whether it’s more confidence, a friend, a handstand, or just a happier outlook than when they walked through the Gym Jam doors.
