Our Mission
"To provide an atmosphere that helps children build confidence, self-esteem, and motivation. Every child learns differently, and every child can benefit from encouragement and a positive coaching style."
What We Do
We are primarily a Tumbling Gym which means we focus mostly on Tumbling. We offer several different levels of Tumbling which helps each student build strength, coordination and self-esteem. We do, however, offer Gymnastics classes up to the age of 6 and then we move them to our Tumbling Program based on their Tumbling skill level at the time. We offer Tumbling classes that start at the beginning level for those students that want to learn handstands and cartwheels. We also offer several high-level Tumbling classes for more advanced students. We coach several competitive Dancers and Cheerleaders. We also offer Private lessons to help with their individual goals. Each student is evaluated for the Tumbling program to ensure being put in the proper level unless they are a beginner or in the younger gymnastics classes. Every child learns differently, when a child is ready to move up a level we will move them right away so they can focus on their next Tumbling skills. Each Tumbling class is designed to break down the skill so they can advance in a safe and proper way.
Reviews From Our Happy Clients
My daughter has had the opportunity to attend tumbling at Xplore since it opened but she has been tumbling with Coach Michelle since she was 3 years old and is now 11. I love that Coach Michelle and her coaches stress safety and proper technique at all times in the gym and that they are all such wonderful coaches! Thank you all for everything you do!
Rose Nava
Our daughter has been attending Xplore tumbling for 4 years, and I can't say enough good things about this school. Its a small local business. The owner, Coach Michelle is professional and genuinely cares about the safety of her students on and off the mats! It is a fun atmosphere in both group lessons and private lessons. Our daughter loves being a part of this school and because of her attending classes, she has become much more confident in herself.
Dave McCoy
My sons started tumbling with Coach Michelle when they were 9 and 7, and have continued through High School. We love working with her. Her passion for tumbling and teaching shines through her interactions with the kids, and her compassion shines through her interactions with their families. The confidence my children have developed under Michelle's wing has extended beyond tumbling and into their careers as performers on the professional theater stages throughout Chicagoland and national television. It has been absolutely pivotal in their development as confident, compassionate, well-rounded, and disciplined young people--all traits Michelle exhibits and has helped us instill in them since their very first lesson. The absolute icing on the cake is she makes tumbling fun! If you are looking for a tumbling program that not only teaches tumbling skills but also teaches kids to support, lift each other up, and have fun, you will find it at Xplore Tumbling and Gymnastics. No hoopla, drama, or cutthroat competitions. We LOVE it.
