π§ Did you know...
Basic components of a child’s neural development are genetically coded, however, trillions of finer neural connections are unprogrammed, and they are heavily influenced by enriching early childhood experiences.
Research shows that movement and sensory activities strengthen and bond synapses – the essential connections between neurons. Sweet Peas’ Educational Gymnastics curriculum helps forge the architecture of a child’s brain that will serve him or her for a lifetime.
This week (and always), we are celebrating our BSGA coaches!
A coach's job is so important, and the influence on their young athletes reaches far beyond the gym! They inspire and support their athletes to become the strongest and most confident version of themselves, on and off the mat, and we are so grateful for our coaches' dedication and commitment to this important role. Thank you, Coaches, for all that you do. We appreciate you so much!
