GASG Compulsory Teams
Our compulsory training and competitive teams consist of both AAU and USA teams. USAG has established 10 levels of gymnastics, 1 being the lowest and 10 being the highest. Gymnastics levels 1-6 are known as compulsory levels. Compulsory gymnastics means that each gymnast competes the same routine on all events and has the same gymnastics floor music. Compulsory gymnastics is set up to have a steady progression of skills that start out from the basics and build until a gymnast reaches levels 7. Levels 7-10 are referred to as optional gymnastics levels.
GASG offers excellent training and conditioning. Focusing on skill development and perfection of form, our goal is to prepare your gymnast for success at every level. For detailed information about our compulsory teams, see below:
