If they can walk, they can learn gymnastics—that's the philosophy at Tumbleweeds Gymnastics. Classes teach basic tumbling skills as well as how to be a good listener, interact with other kids, and safely somersault away from conflict. As children grow more comfortable and skilled, they can graduate to more challenging classes, or eventually to specialty classes that focus on competitive cheerleading or gymnastics.

For an example of Tumbleweeds' success, just look to the owner. Courtney Dennison spent her youth racking up awards on the Tumbleweeds gymnastics team before receiving a full-ride scholarship to join the team at Oregon State University. Coming full circle, she eventually returned to take over the school and help others follow in her cartwheel-tracks.
