🗓 2025–2026 Practice Schedule 🗓

Our new team practice schedule begins August 11th and runs through the spring season. All practices listed are mandatory. If a gymnast cannot attend or will be late, please notify us ahead of time—this helps us plan effectively for coaching coverage. IF you are unable to attend practice, please email the gym (gymnastics@wildcard-gymnastics.com) or text Amy at 414-303-5195. Please try to make up a missed practice on one of the other nights.

With competition season approaching, every minute in the gym matters. Time spent training now is key to preparing routines and mastering skills for the fall! Fridays before a meet are mandatory unless you have pre-approval from Amy to miss.

We’re excited for a great season ahead, and we always welcome new friends—don’t hesitate to reach out with questions or interest.

Tomorrow is looking to be a scorcher! We will still be holding practice, and want everyone to take a look at these tips to make practice a bit more comfortable for your athlete:

☀️ Hot Day Practice Tips

💧 Hydrate: Drink water before, during, and after practice. Add electrolytes if possible.

👕 Dress Light: Wear breathable clothes. Tank leos or crop tops help keep cool.

💦 Cool Down Tools: Bring a cold towel or frozen washcloth for breaks.

🍎 Eat Smart: Light snacks like fruit or yogurt work best before practice.

🧴 Rest & Recover: Take breaks seriously, and listen to your body—tell a coach if you feel off.

🌡️ Be Flexible: Coaches may adjust practice for safety. Thanks for understanding!

We will be holding a Routine Clinic on Sunday, August 3rd to learn the floor and beam routines. Level 2s and 3s should come 12-2 p.m. and Level 4s and 5s from 2-3:30 p.m. This will be one time that we learn the entire routine! Gymnasts who already know the routines should plan to come (unless notified otherwise). If your gymnast is unable to attend, please let us know ASAP and plan to schedule 1-2 private lessons to learn the routines. Private lessons are an additional fee!

Please talk with your gymnast about what skills she is missing. Now is the time to try and schedule private lessons. (Depending on the coach – private lessons range form $35-$50 per hour). You must cancel within 36 hours of the scheduled lesson or your account will be charged. Private lessons are ideal to get your gymnast caught up on skills and practice routines, They are extremely beneficial.
