POLICIES & PROCEDURES

    Safety Rules:                 
    1.  All students need to store their clothing and shoes in the space
    provided.  
    2.  Students MUST wait for their instructor to call them out onto the gym floor.
    3.  Parents, guests and siblings are NOT permitted on equipment and/or the
    gym floor.  This is for the safety of the gymnasts and all others concerned.  
    All guests may watch from the viewing area, or wait in the lobby during
    classes.
    4.  There is to be NO coaching from the sidelines as it is distracting to the
    gymnast and coach, and could be dangerous.  If a parent continues to
    interrupt class, they will be asked to wait in the lobby during workouts.

    Parking:
    Our complex property management has instructed that our patrons refrain
    from parking in spaces in front of other businesses.  Our customers are to
    park in open parking area in the front of this complex (along 5th street).  
    Those who park in front of businesses may be towed!  Our staff members
    often lock up and leave after dark, so for safety purposes, the spaces in
    front of our suite are for STAFF ONLY.

    Trial Classes:
    The Trial Class is considered the first class of your paid session if you
    choose to sign-up.  Cost for the trial class is the prorated class amount (25%
    of total).  Trial fee and registration forms must be completed and signed
    prior to trial class.  Trial fee will be credited towards membership and tuition
    upon sign-up.  Students are allowed only one trial class.

    Enrollment:                 
    Each session consists of four classes (one class per week) unless otherwise
    stated.  Tuition for each session is due before the first class of that session.  
    Participants are not considered enrolled until session fees and memberships
    have been paid.  Tuition is non-refundable after participant has attended the
    first class of paid session.  Class availability is decided on a first come, first
    served basis; therefore registration and/or tuition are encouraged early or
    on time.  Tumble City does not guarantee availability in any class.

    Absences:                 
    If a student cannot attend a class, and notifies the gym prior to class time, a
    make-up class may be scheduled.  The make up class must be scheduled
    within four weeks of the missed class.  Make up classes can be arranged
    with the front office.  We do not offer tuition discounts in place of make up
    lessons.  The front office has vacation/drop slips available if the student will
    be taking a long absence (2 or more weeks).  If a student is ill, please call
    ahead to excuse him/her from class.  Make up classes will be scheduled
    when the child is well.  We strongly suggest that you don’t bring ill or injured
    children to class.  NOTE: There are no make-ups for the Circus Program
    unless otherwise stated.

    Punctuality:                 
    We ask that students arrive 5 minutes prior to class time.  Every class
    begins with a warm-up which is important to reduce the risk of injuries.  If
    student arrives late and misses any portion of the warm up, it will be up to
    the instructor if the student will be allowed into class.  However, if a student
    is tardy by more than 5 minutes, he/she may be asked to sit out class (with
    possible exceptions for advanced students).

    Clothing:                 
    NO STREET CLOTHES ARE ALLOWED; THIS INCLUDES DENIM.  Tumble
    City may loan clothing to students for the day if their clothing is deemed
    inappropriate.  

    Girls:  leotards, unitards or stretch shorts with a shirt tucked in.  Sweats may
    also be worn.  Bare feet or gym shoes only.  No zippers, buttons or snaps.  
    And please...no skirts!  Also, tank tops MUST BE thick strapped and may not
    be low cut.

    Boys:  Jerseys with shorts or sweats.  T-shirts should be tucked in. Sweat
    pants are okay.  Bare feet or gym shoes only, no zippers, buttons or snaps.  

    Miscellaneous:                 
    1.  ABSOLUTELY NO JEWELRY.  Medical bracelets must be covered by a
    sports wrist band.
    2.  ALL hair must be pulled back away from the face and the shoulders.  
    3.  No drinks and/or snacks in the gym area.  Food and/or drinks are not
    allowed during workout, with the exception of water.  
    4.  Tumble City is not responsible for lost or stolen items.
