Frequently Asked Questions
How much do classes cost?
45-minute classes (Bouncing Babies & Tumbling Tots) are $84 per month for one class per week. 60-minute classes are $90 month for one class per week. There is also an annual $50 registration fee per student that’s due when you sign up and again every year that you’re enrolled in classes at Planet.
When can I sign up?
Our registration is open all year, so you can sign up at any time. If you happen to sign up in the middle of a month, then your first month’s tuition would be prorated so that you only pay for the classes that remain in that month. Signing up is easy—just go our Parent Portal to create your account.
Do I have to sign a contract?
No. Our tuition goes from month-to-month. If you decide you’d like to unenroll for any reason, you can do so through the Parent Portal or by contacting our front desk. We just require that you let us know before the beginning of the month in which you’re dropping. For example, if you know you’ll be out of town a lot during December and don’t want to pay for classes that month, just let us know by the end of November and you won’t be charged for December’s classes. Do keep in mind, though, that dropping from a class means that spot can go to someone else.
What should my child wear to class?
For gymnastics classes, athletes should wear athletic clothing that isn’t baggy. We also sell leotards, shorts, unitards, scrunchies, and more at Planet Apparel if you want some stylish and high-quality gymnastics kit. Athletes’ hair should be tied up neatly and out of their face and, except for stud earrings, no jewelry is allowed.
For cheer classes, athletes should have athletic wear and athletic shoes.
What happens if I need to miss a class?
We don’t offer makeup classes unless we’re closed and it results in you getting fewer than four class during a calendar month. It would be a logistical nightmare if we tried to schedule makeup classes anytime a student needed to miss class. If you know you’ll be out of town for a good portion of the month, you have the option of unenrolling your child for that month. But we can’t guarantee that their spot will still be there when you’re ready to return.
Do you offer private lessons?
Yes, most of our coaches offer private lessons. They set their own schedules and pricing for this. Send an email to PlanetGymnasticsAL@gmail.com with your contact information and what skills you’re wanting to learn and one of our coaches can reach out for scheduling. If your child is already enrolled in a class, we recommend talking to one of their coaches directly about privates lessons.
