German Wheel

Come rock, roll, flip, and spin on the German Wheel! Students will gain strength, balance, and mobility through acrobatics on this unique apparatus. Beginners will learn to rock back and forth, sit on the bars, and cartwheel. More advanced students may learn to stand on top, free fly, and do backward and forward flips.

Participants must wear closed-toed shoes. Shoes should be flexible and have thin hard soles, like Converses, Keds, or ideally, martial arts shoes.
