Pre-School Program

The Pre-School Program at Carolina Stars is divided into four programs : Starlets, Little Dippers and Big Dippers.  In addition, for advanced gymnasts in the 3- 5 years old range, we offer the Mighty Mites class. The student teacher ratio for these programs is 6:1 and classes meet for 45-60 minutes. Children at this level use all pieces of the traditional equipment as well as the rope, hula hoops, beanbags, balls, and other equipment designed especially for preschoolers. Lessons are designed with creativity, fun and excitement as the primary focus. Balance, strength, motor skills, and body awareness are developed physically, while confidence and self esteem are enhanced emotionally.
