Recreational

Our administrative office is availabe on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday from 2:00 PM - 6:00 PM,  and Saturday from 10:00 AM - 2:00 PM. We are closed on Thursday, Sunday and statutory holidays.

• All recreational gymnastics programs are offered on a month-to-month basis. The monthly tuition costs for all recreational classes are based on four classes per month. Monthly tuition costs are automatically prorated when more or less classes are offered in a month due to the number of days in the month or holiday-related gym closures.
• Athletes can sign up and join a class at any time and progress at their own pace until they have mastered all skills associated with the class, at which point the athlete may transfer to the next level.
• When registering for a gymnastics class, you will be paying for the first month of classes upfront. Tuition charges will be prorated if you are starting mid-month.
• After your initial registration, all classes will roll over at the end of each month. Payment for the monthly tuition for each following month will be charged to your credit card on file on the last day of each month prior. Athletes will not be able to attend class if payment is not received prior to the start of the next month and may be dropped from the program. 
• All recreational programs end on June 30th, at which point you will need to re-register for the next season.

A ten percent sibling discount will automatically apply to the lowest monthly program fees for families who register more than one child in either of our recreational or competitive programs, and also for those who register anyone for more than one class at a time.

• Full refunds for any of our programs can be requested only prior to the athlete's starting date, but will be subject to a $10 administrative fee. Monthly tuition fees are non-refundable once the program has started. 
• Due to our strict athlete-to-coach ratio, missed classes, including scheduled holidays, short-term illness or excused absences, will not result in make-up classes, prorated tuition, credits or refunds, since we will still be holding your child's place in that class and are unable to offer that spot up to someone else.

We do offer a waitlist option if the class you would like to register for is full. You can add yourself to a waitlist in the Kin registration portal and our Kin App, or you can email us at info@kingymnastics.com. You will receive a confirmation email when you have been added to a waitlist. 

We will contact you again by email when a spot becomes available. If a spot in the class becomes available and you decide not to take it, you will be removed from the waitlist. If you do not respond to our notification that a spot is available for you within the required deadline, you will automatically be taken off the waitlist. 

You do not need to pay for the class or the membership while on the waitlist, however, you will be responsible for full payment once you accept the spot.

You can request to be transferred to a different class, day, or time in the Kin registration portal and our Kin App, or you can email us at info@kingymnastics.com. 

If you are requesting to move to a higher-level class, we will need to have the coach’s recommendation before we can grant the request. Coaches will normally let you know when your athlete is ready to move up (or down) in level. 

You will receive a Request confirmation when you first request a transfer. As soon as class availability and/or skill level requirements can be confirmed, you will receive a separate Transfer Confirmation email. Any difference in class fees will be processed automatically at this time as well. 

Transfer requests will not be accepted if there are any overdue charges on your account.

Kin reserves the right to cancel or change training progams due to insufficient enrolment, in which case a full class fee refund will be offered. In the highly unlikely event that an individual class is cancelled due to weather, power or staffing-related issues, an alternate training option or credit may be offered at Kin's discretion.

Our coaches track you athlete’s progress in our system, so you can monitor their progress in the Kin Registration Portal and in the Kin mobile app on an ongoing basis. These skill evaluations also for us to determine what someone is ready to move up a level. 

If your athlete has peaked in our recreational program – be aware that our competitive gymnastics coaches are always looking for girls to join their program. It’s why our coaches always assess participants within the recreational program and look for competitive candidates based on natural ability, strength, stamina, flexibility, and personality with a strong potential for growth.

The payment process through our  portal requires the creation of a user account with credit card in order to pay for your program. Please contact us if you require any assistance, or would like to pay with an alternate method of payment.

• In addition to the monthly program fees, all athletes participating in recreational gymnastics must have a valid Kin Gymnastics membership. This is a mandatory annual membership, which includes a provincially mandated Alberta Gymnastics Federation (AGF) membership for all registered gymnasts at any registered Gymnastics facility in Canada. 
• The annual Kin Gymnastics membership is valid from July 1st – June 30th of each year. KIN Gymnastics membership fees cannot be prorated and are non-refundable once the athlete has started. The current Kin Gymnastics membership fee for recreational gymnastics programs is $69.48 and will be charged to your account prior to starting your first training class.
• Athletes upgrading to a competitive program will be required to upgrade their annual membership level as rates for competitive athletes are based on the level of gymnastics in which the athletes partake, ranging from developmental to provincial and national levels.

• Full refunds for any of our programs can be requested only prior to the athlete's starting date, but will be subject to a $10 administrative fee. Monthly tuition fees are non-refundable once the program has started. 
• You have the option to cancel or temporarily drop out of a recreational program, by providing 30-days’ notice.
• You can submit a drop date request directly in our online registration system or in the Kin app. Alternatively you can notify Kin Gymnastics in writing via email to info@kingymnastics.com. Drop requests will not be accepted over the phone.
• You are responsible for payment for your child's classes, whether your child attends class or not, until the time you submit written notice of withdrawal or cancellation.
• Please do not rely on your student to verbally let a staff member know that they will no longer be attending classes. If an athlete stops coming to class without notification, you will continue to be charged since we will be for holding the child's place in that class instead of being able to offer that spot up to someone else.

Athletes must have hair tied back, no jewelry and will participate barefoot to prevent slipping. Wear athletic clothing like a t-shirt and shorts, leggings, a gym suit, or a leotard. Shirts should be fitted and long enough to stay tucked in. 

Avoid loose or restrictive clothing such as jeans, skirts, dresses, hooded sweaters, or anything with buttons, zippers, or large decorations, as these can damage equipment or cause injury. Please have your child use the bathroom before class to avoid unnecessary delays. 

Athletes will be moving around and will likely be going upside down. Upset tummies lead to a mess for the instructor, so ensure your child has had proper time to digest their meal before class starts. Bringing a full water bottle with the athlete's name clearly labelled.

We encourage people to watch their kids from the designated viewing areas in our gym, but be aware that space is limited and please refrain from distracting or coaching from the sidelines as distraction can have dangerous consequences. 

Be respectful and do not make negative comments about other athletes, parents/guardians, coaches, and staff. Individuals causing a distraction or being disrespectful will be asked to leave the site and may lose future viewing privileges. For privacy reasons, pictures and video are not permitted during training times. 

Flash photography can be extremely dangerous for the athletes and is strictly forbidden in the facility at all times. Coaches and staff will provide opportunities for pictures at special events.
