Clothing

Dress children in comfortable clothing: cotton shorts (no buttons, buckles, or zippers) and t-shirt or favorite leotard that covers their midriff. Please no skirts or dresses. Bare feet are best.  Parents who are participating should be dressed in comfortable clothing that allows them to assist their child.

There are many options on what to wear to gymnastics class. Kids will be going upside down, and you don’t want them trying to hold their shirt down when they should be focused on their form and the safe execution of the skill. Many female gymnasts wear a leotard, sometimes adding shorts over, but they may also wear shorts/leggings and a tight or tucked-in t-shirt. For boys, a compression shirt or t-shirt which can tuck in, and athletic shorts or compression shorts should work well. Coaches highly recommend the gymnast go barefoot due to the mats may be slippery, but Gymnasts may wear socks. In the beginning levels, special accessories such as grips or beam shoes are not necessary unless specifically directed by their coach.

Male gymnasts are not allowed to be shirtless in the gym and female gymnasts must wear workout clothing that covers their stomach and back fully. There is extra clothing available at the front desk if necessary.

Jewelry

No jewelry should be worn, it can easily fall off, break, get lost or can get caught on equipment and/or cause injury to the child. If ears are newly pierced and earrings cannot be removed, they must be small studs. Rings, necklaces, bracelets (excluding medical), and dangling earrings should be left at home or with a trusted adult for safekeeping.

Hair

Hair should be pulled back into a ponytail (low ponytail is best for beginners), buns, braids, or any style they like as long as it will not fall in their face. Elastic headbands can also help, as long as they have enough grip to not fly off slide around when practicing.

Until your athlete moves far enough up to need special accessories like grips, they only need to bring a face mask (optional) and a water bottle.

Yes, Mini Hops has special cubbies for each program that your child(ren) can use to store their belongings during class.

To participate in classes or events at Mini Hops, yes, you do have to sign a waiver. This is important because it informs you of the risks involved in gymnastics.

Mini Hops has been working very hard to be part of the solution, for a comprehensive plan of our Covid protocols please click here.

Due to Covid-19, we are currently LIMITING spectators and fans in the facility. What this means, is that one parent should accompany their child(ren) who are under age 6 and are NOT independent or any student who needs assistance to get into the building and to class safely. If your child(ren) is over the age of 6 and are independent, we are asking that parents only walk them in the door and then spend the duration of class time in their car. We recommend that an adult accompany students enrolled in the Adaptive program. If your child cannot attend class independently, we ask that you come in with your child (with mask and do temperature screening), get them ready and to the gym door where they meet their coach and leave the building, and then return 5 to 10 min before the end of the class. Return in the same fashion for pick-up. 

Mini Hops will close due to extreme weather if the Executive Director approves it. To find out if Mini Hops is closed or closing early on a certain day due to weather, please visit WCCO school listings, our homepage, or our social media.

Note – if you unsubscribe from email communications, we will not be able to inform you when we are closed for weather related reasons.

At Mini Hops all our staff has the opportunity to get trained in CPR and other First Aid. All Mini Hops coaches are proficient in administering basic first aid and many of our Senior Staff is trained in CPR. Mini Hops also has an AED on site.

If you are going to miss class for any reason please let Mini Hops know by emailing or calling us. We will then mark your child as excused. We currently offer 1 make up per month, to be made up within the same month a class is missed. Please call or email to schedule.

Mini Hops reserves the right to cancel/combine any class due to low enrollment. Refunds are only given for class cancellation by Mini Hops, injuries, and serious medical illness (physicians note required).

Special Events (Camps, Parents Night Out, etc.) Cancellation Procedure – If you should have to cancel, MHG does not refund, only credits will be given with at least 24-hour notice and no credit or refund will be given with less than 24-hour notice. We reserve the right to cancel any event due to low enrollment. If MHG must cancel an event, you may choose a refund or a credit.

Yes, Mini Hops offers gift certificates! They are a great gift for any holiday for any age. To order a gift card, please visit our pro-shop.

Yes, there is a 5% multiple class, 10% multiple children, (2nd child + receives the discount), and a 15% Veterans discount (requires proof).

Instead of paying a larger amount for a full term (7-10 weeks) of instruction at a time, you will be charged monthly.  MHG will charge your credit card for the first month (prorated if in the middle of the month) at the time of registration and again on the 26th of each month until you unenroll.  You will remain in that class until you unenroll.

If you wish to unenroll you must let Mini Hops know before the 25th of the last month you would like to avoid being charged for the next month.

The tuition is based on a 47-week year to include 5 break weeks. It is most beneficial to stay enrolled for the entire year. Tuition remains the same for every month of the year. Your tuition pays for an educational experience and not a specified number of classes. In any given year, some months have four classes, and some months have five classes. On occasion, there will be a month with three classes for one reason or another. Over a year, typically, the average is slightly over four classes per month.

Tuition is auto debited from your valid credit/debit card on file on the 26th of the month for the upcoming month. If you have an expired/declined card you will be notified and will have 24 hours to rectify the issue or you may be unenrolled from the class.

No there is not a discount for pre-paying for multiple months. Mini Hops does not offer that as an option.

Our scholarship program is self-funded and financial assistance is available if funds are available.  Currently, with COVID restrictions, there are no funds available. If you would like to give a tax-free donation to the scholarship fund, click here.

Rolling enrollment means that you are continuously re-enrolled in your class each month until you tell us via email or text you would like to unenroll (before the 25^th of the month) or the end of the session comes.

Mini Hops only has two sessions, School Year and Summer. School Year runs from September to May and Summer runs from June to August.

The best time to start gymnastics is now! Mini Hops offers classes for as young as 5 months old all the way to 100 years old. No season or sessions is better to get started. For billing purposes, the best time would be at the beginning of a month, but that doesn’t really matter.

Yes, if there is availability in the desired class, the first month’s registration can be pro-rated.  NO other months can be prorated.

MINI GYM: No, at Mini Hops we have found that placing a child into an incorrect age bracket takes away from not only the success of that child’s experience but also from that of the other students in the class. Each class is designed to have multiple degrees of difficultly for a child to advance through. 

BIG GYM: If your child is advanced enough to move into a Level class, their coach will have them evaluated and once they are approved to move, they can make the change into a Level class. If they are in consideration to join one of our competition teams, a team coach will contact you and inform you about team and moving into one.

In the mini gym, all classes are age-based. Parents will need to plan ahead and pick an available class or go on a waitlist the month after their child’s birthdate occurs.

In the school age program, where it is mostly grade based classes, students will stay in their grade for the year.  As they progress through the curriculum and master specific skills they will be evaluated.  If promoted at that time, parents can select an available class in the upcoming months or go on a waitlist for the desired day and time.

Mini Hops only has two sessions, School Year and Summer. The School Year runs from the beginning of September to the end of May and Summer runs from the beginning of June to the end of August.

Once you are enrolled in a class, you stay automatically re-enrolled until you tell us you would like to unenroll, or the end of the session comes.

Login or create your family account to submit an enrollment request.  In your account you will be able to update family information, add students and search available classes by level, day and time.  Select your desired classes and enter your payment information.  Once approved your enrollment is ONGOING until you unenroll or the end of the session comes.

We only have two sessions:

School Year: Runs from Beginning of September to End of May

Summer: Beginning of June to End of August.

If you wish to discontinue your class(es), you will need to notify the front desk via email, phone call, or through the parent portal before the 25th of the month that you would like to be your enrollment to end.  Please include students name, program, your desired last month & any feedback.

Please unenroll before the 25th via email to avoid payment for the following month.

You can enroll or be added to the waitlist to request your spot in the class after the 25th of the month.

Once you unenroll you may lose your spot in the class.  You can go on the waitlists for future months.  Once the billing is complete for that month the customer experience team will notify you if you are able to enroll in the class.
