improving re-registration rates
90% re-registration is the goal for Recreation Gymnastics programs. I’ve only rarely reached that goal.

- Keep Students Using Their Time Productively
- Minimize Waiting (NO line-ups)
- Make Sure They Learn and Are Successful
- Vary the Classes for Interest and Excitement
