Jumping into gymnastics

RAPID CITY, SD (KOTA) – When it comes to kids wanting to try something new or get more involved in sports… have they ever considered gymnastics?

Just Gymnastics has been a part of the Rapid City community for 42 years and has created a foundation for all children.

Just Gymnastics offers recreational and competitive gymnastics and even a ninja zone focused on martial arts, gymnastics and obstacle training.

Gymnastics helps children understand body awareness such as spatial orientation and proprioception. After learning these basics, they can also play other sports of their choice.

Head Coach Donny Otis has advice for parents who want to help their children step out of their comfort zones, especially when trying a new sport like gymnastics.

“Jumping into this will be kind of like coming to the gym and doing this because some things are very tactical and you don’t want to pick up bad habits at home.”
