To our NHG Family: 

On June 1, 2001, Houston North Gymnastics and Tumbling Center came to life, with 25 boys who, along with their parents, wanted the opportunity to pursue their gymnastics in a program that emphasized the philosophies and objectives we live by at Houston North Gymnastics.  As we enter our eighth year at our current location, we thought it would be a good idea to reiterate the core principles that make Houston North Gymnastics the program it is today.

• Every child is important and deserves our best.

• The gym must be a safe haven for every child.

• Respect must be unconditional. Respect is received, when it is first given.

• Learning is its own reward. Each child needs to have new learning opportunities everyday.

• Gymnastics must be fun. The challenges, successes, friendships, and the unlimited opportunities to learn are the greatest fun.

Once again, we must thank the people who believed in us from the start, for without them, none of this would be possible. We have added many new friends to our program, and each is important to us all.

If you are new to Houston North, we welcome you to a very exceptional group of people and a special place for kids to learn, to welcome challenges, and to achieve success. We are very happy to have you as part of our Houston North family.

Student Status and Class Registration

Class Registration

1. Your Registration fee remains in force until the end of Session 6. If a student drops out of classes for a session, he/she will still be entitle to discounts on special events such as “Friday Night Fun” and “Kids Night Out.” There is no “Re-activation Fee” if that student decides to resume classes in a later session in that Gymnastics Year.

2. Tuition is due the first week of each 8 week session.  Classes will be filled on a "first come first serve" basis.

3. Your child's spot in class is secured with payment of tuition.  You run the risk of losing your child's class, day, and time is tuition is paid late.

4. Tuition is determined by the number of hours per week your child or children are registered for.

5. A discount is built into our tuition rates for siblings or for a child registered for more than one class per week.

Payment Procedures

HNG accepts checks, Visa, MasterCard, and cash. Mail-in payments may be made by check or credit card. HNG CHARGES A $25.00 FEE ON ALL RETURNED CHECKS.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I join a class or change classes after the session begins?

Generally, there is no problem as long as there is space available in the class you desire; however, some of the more advanced classes may have late start restrictions. Tuition will be prorated for the rest of the session.

What if I drop a class?

There are no refunds or credits for dropping a class or transferring to a class that meets for less time during a session. Once a session begins, you are in that class for the entire term, regardless of attendance, except for a medical exception. We reserve the right to assess a processing fee for excessive need and use of schedule changes and make-up classes.

What is the Medical Exemption Policy?

For medical reasons that are verified in writing by a doctor, you will be granted a credit prorated from THE DATE WE RECEIVE the letter from the doctor. A retroactive request for Medical Credit cannot be granted because we have lost the opportunity to fill that spot.

Can I make up a class if I miss?

YES! Your child will be given an opportunity to do a make up class during the session of the absence. PLEASE CALL the office to schedule your make up class.

What should I wear to class?

·   Girls may wear any color leotard (no skirts on the leotards); soccer shorts or bike shorts may be worn over the leotard; girls may also wear a t-shirt over their leotard. Use scrunchies or plain elastic ponytail holders to keep the hair pulled back.

·   Boys wear a T-shirt (no muscle shirts) and soccer shorts. Long baggy shorts and shorts with pockets, belt loops, and/or snaps or buttons are not acceptable.

·   NO jewelry is allowed; it a serious safety risk.

Can I bring a snack or something to drink?

Food is not allowed in the gym. If you wish to bring something to drink, only water may be brought into the gym – no Gatorade, juice, etc., is allowed (FYI- the latest research in youth athlete nutrition clearly states Gatorade and other “Sports Drinks” are effective only AFTER the end of a workout. Even more effective only AFTER the end of a workout. Even more effective is LOW FAT CHOCOLATE MILK!)

 How many classes per week should I take?

We recommend that everyone start with 1 or 2 hours per week. If your child shows a strong desire to increase his/her hours at the gym, then consider an increase in gym time. We urge parents to NOT try to teach their children at home or to push them to do extra work at home. This inevitably leads to problems later.
