Registration for winter programs begins at 10 am:
The Wilmette Park District has a 10,000+ square foot, state-of-the-art gymnasium–one of the finest gymnastics facilities in Illinois. In addition to the standard Olympic events for men and women, our gymnastics program features an enlarged pit area and two in-ground trampolines that allow beginning through advanced students to train in the safest possible manner.
Our gym also features a padded and carpeted area for preschool children ages 2 to 6 years old, full of equipment that is just their size! The gym has a glass-enclosed viewing area so parents and friends can easily see the children during class.

Age 5-6, including Kindergarten
Children progress developmentally through skill-based lesson plans and become more comfortable performing gymnastics skills independently. These classes include Kindergartners. Children must be age 5 at the start of the program.

The gymnastics gym is the perfect place to bring your MINI NINJA to acquire those basic skills. Learn to flip, roll, jump and climb like a true ninja! We will utilize our specialized ninja equipment, trampolines and soft mats for our minis.

*A Message to Parents About Age Requirements and Siblings:
For all programs, age requirements will be as of the date of the first class, unless otherwise specified. Please do not request to have your child put in a class he/she does not belong in. All age requirements are set to benefit the children and make instruction more consistent. In some instances, the requirements have been set for your child’s safety. Also, due to insurance regulations, siblings may not be on the floor during class.
We are excited to offer private gymnastics lessons! Lessons are one-on-one, for one hour. Current participants are welcome to arrange lessons directly with their coach, or new participants may reach out to the Gymnastics Supervisor to be connected with a coach. Please call (847) 256-9695 more information.
