Energy’s Single Skill Bootcamp
Ages: 7 - 15 Years Old
*Single Skill Bootcamps run when there are 3+ students enrolled. Energy reserves the right to cancel the event due to low enrollment.
Our Single Skill Bootcamps provide athletes with the opportunity to focus exclusively on one gymnastics skill through multiple days of structured, intentional training. By dedicating each session to a single skill, athletes are able to build stronger technique, develop greater confidence, and make meaningful progress in a short period of time.
Our approach goes beyond simply learning a skill. Each day combines strength and mobility training, drills, progressions, and hands-on spotting to help athletes understand how the skill works, not just how to perform it. We believe lasting success comes from building a strong foundation, developing body awareness, and progressing at a pace that prioritizes safety and confidence.
Unlike a traditional gymnastics class where athletes work on multiple events and skills, our Single Skill Bootcamps dedicate every minute to one specific goal. This focused approach allows athletes to receive significantly more repetitions, coaching, and feedback, accelerating learning while reinforcing proper technique.

Ready for Gymnastics
Leotard or Comfortable Tight Fitting Clothing
Ponytail
Barefoot (no socks)
Cheerleaders may wear specified cheer gym shoes
No jewelry
Hair
It is essential that gymnasts’ with long hair pull their hair back. They can wear their hair in a ponytail, bun, braid, or any hairstyle where it isn’t going to get in the way.
When long hair is worn down it can get in the gymnasts’ face or caught by the gymnasts’ hands or feet when performing skills.
Feet
The majority of gymnasts both practice and compete with bare feet. Socks can create a safety hazard as they are often slippery on the apparatus. It can also prevent the gymnast from using their toes to push, climb, and learn how to grip apparatuses with their toes when performing skills.
While we do not recommend this, sometimes families opt to wear non-slip socks. Because non-slip socks aren’t all made the same, it still can create a safety hazard as socks are prone to move around due to a number of factors: fit size, amount of grip surface, socks elasticity, etc.
Attire
Gymnasts’ can choose to wear Leotards, Comfortable Tight Fitting Clothes such as T-Shirt, Tanks, Shorts, Leggings, etc.
Most gymnasts choose to wear a leotard to work out in as it allows the gymnast to move easily. However, this is not required.
Shorts
Many gymnasts feel more comfortable practicing with shorts over their leotard. It is recommended that gymnasts wear tight fitting shorts in order to prevent from being caught on equipment.
Loose Fitting Clothing
Loose fitting clothing can present a safety hazard as it can get caught by the gymnasts’ hands, feet, or an apparatus when performing different exercises/skills.
Jewelry
Often gymnasts want to wear jewelry at practice. However, watches, bracelets, necklaces, rings, and earrings (other than studs) all present a safety hazard as they could get caught on the equipment.
