Congratulations on your new skill!

Here’s to even more goals being checked off this session!

MOVING ON UP!

What better way to wrap up our 12-week session than celebrating some of our athletes who are officially MOVING UP to their next class level!

Throughout each session, our athletes work toward mastering the skills and progressions needed for their current level. End-of-session evaluations give our coaches the opportunity to recognize that hard work, track their progress, and determine when they’re ready for their next challenge.

Congratulations to these athletes on earning their move up! We can’t wait to see what you accomplish in your next level!

And the best part? A brand-new opportunity to make progress starts THIS SUNDAY!

Our next 12-week class session begins Sunday, August 23rd, and registration is OPEN!

Not sure where to start? Email us at [email protected] and we’ll help find the right class for your athlete and get them scheduled for a trial class!

Yesterday we talked about WHY we complete end-of-session evaluations.

Today, we’re showing you what those evaluations can help us see.

These clips show the same athlete during their evaluation at the end of the last session compared to their evaluation at the end of this session.

Just 12 weeks apart.

Look at that progress!

Progress looks different for every athlete. Sometimes it’s a brand-new skill. Sometimes it’s stronger technique, better body positions, more confidence, or increased consistency.

That’s why we track it.

12 weeks of showing up.
12 weeks of corrections.
12 weeks of repetitions.
12 weeks of hard work.

Imagine where the next 12 weeks could take you.

WHAT ARE END-OF-SESSION EVALUATIONS?

As we wrap up another 12-week class session, our athletes are completing their end-of-session evaluations!

But what exactly are evaluations — and why are they such an important part of our tumbling program?

Our Tumbling Director, Coach Tseday, is breaking down how we use evaluations to:

Track each athlete’s progress
Recognize skills they’ve mastered
Identify what they should continue working on
Help determine when an athlete is ready for the next class level
Give families a clear picture of their athlete’s development

Our goal isn’t just to teach skills — it’s to help athletes and families SEE the progress being made from session to session.

Listen in as Coach Tseday explains why evaluations are such an important part of the X-Cel tumbling program!

NEW SKILL TUESDAY ️

This one is extra special.

We’ve had the privilege of watching this athlete grow since she was on a Tiny Novice team with our cheer program Step One Allstars North, when one of her first competition tumbling skills was a cartwheel.

Fast forward to today… and she just put her FIRST LEVEL 4 SKILL ON THE FLOOR!

From that first cartwheel to Level 4 tumbling, there have been YEARS of practices, corrections, repetitions, new skills, hard days, exciting days, and so much growth in between.

Progress doesn’t happen overnight.

Keep showing up. Keep working. Keep building.

And one day, that first cartwheel turns into something you once could only dream of doing.

Congratulations on your skill!
