Twisters has been in business in the Cedar Rapids area for over 30 years. Our mission is to enhance the lives of all the children we work with and help them grow into happy, healthy, confident adults.
Being a gymnast means always striving to do things you think you cannot do.

Frequently Asked Questions
Please reach us at info@iowatwisters.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.
Almost all children will start in the age-appropriate beginner level if they are new to gymnastics. If your child has had significant previous gymnastics experience, you may request an evaluation to determine which class would be the best fit for him/her within our program.
We require a two-week written (or email) notice, due by the end of the month, to discontinue classes. Tuition will be charged until the notification period is up. If a withdrawal notice is submitted after tuition is paid for the month there will be no proration or refund for the remainder of the month.
We offer makeup classes for preschool and recreational classes approximately once per month on Saturdays. These may be used to make up classes missed due to illness, vacations, school events, etc... ; scheduled holidays do not offer makeup classes. You must pre-register for makeup classes by calling or emailing the office at least 3 days prior to the class so that we know how many students to expect.
If your child already attends a class on Saturdays, or you would simply rather an open gym, we offer open gym passes as an alternative to makeup classes. You must contact the office for these as well as the makeup class.
In order to keep numbers under capacity, we ask that you contact the office for a makeup class or open gym pass within 1-2 months of missing class(es) to schedule your makeup class(es) or get your open gym pass(es). Classes do not need to be made up within the month that class is missed, and open gyms do not expire for at least a year out.
Tuition is based on an annual amount divided equally by the 12 months of the year (with the exception of December). The fee reserves the student’s place in the class whether attending or not. Therefore, there are no refunds for classes missed due to vacations, school events, illness, and scheduled holidays. December tuition will be prorated due to the extended break. If your child misses a class for any reason other than a closed holiday, you may schedule a makeup class with the office (see makeup class information above).
Children do not need to be current Twisters students to attend open gym!

While we do not offer free trial classes, we do offer a two-week trial period. You do need to register for the class and pay the annual registration fee and first month’s tuition. However, if by the end of your child’s second class they decide they do not wish to continue, and you notify us at that time, we will refund your full tuition paid. The only thing that is not refundable is the annual registration fee.
Twisters has open enrollment, meaning you may start and stop class at any time. We do offer a special summer session with daytime classes for school-age children, but the remainder of our classes run year-round.
Our policy requires you to start class within two weeks of enrolling. The system will not allow you to choose a date further than two weeks out from today. You will be charged from the date you choose to start. If it’s in the middle of the month, it will be prorated.
Yes, we do charge an ANNUAL registration fee of $25 for the first child, and $10 for additional children in the same family. This is due upon starting classes, and annually thereafter. This fee covers administrative costs including the insurance that we as a USA Gymnastics Member Club are required to carry for each child in our program.
Yes! We offer a 15% tuition discount for each additional student from the same family.
We also offer a 15% discount for a second class taken by the same student.
The best way to pay your monthly tuition is via ACH, which is our Autopay option. This can be set up through a checking account either via your online account on our secure website, or by filling out a form at the office. We run ACH on the first of each month, so you never need to worry about forgetting to make a payment!
We also accept cash and check at the office. While we do also accept credit card payments, please be aware that we pay a processing fee for these payments, an amount we would much rather put back into our program, so for that reason we prefer cash, check, and ACH payments.
Preschool boys and girls may wear tucked in t-shirts and shorts, or leotards for girls. We suggest tight fitting clothing for safety. Girls ages 5 and older in gymnastics are required to wear one-piece leotards (without attached skirts) for class. Boys may wear shorts and t-shirts. Hair should be pulled neatly and securely away from the face so that it stays up for the entire workout. Stud earrings are allowed, but no other jewelry, including FitBits, friendship bracelets, etc. All students should be barefoot while in class.
Children (boys and girls) in Ninja or tumbling should wear comfortable activewear (shorts, leggings, t-shirts, etc...)
Our monthly tuition is based on an annual amount divided evenly by the 12 months of the year. The only month we prorate tuition is December. Some months your student will have 4 classes, and some months they will have 5 classes. We do not charge extra for the 5 class months; that is also figured into our annual tuition. This ONLY applies to rec classes; team classes are on an alternate schedule where there will still be practice over break, so there will be no proration.
In general Twisters follows the Cedar Rapids School District with regards to weather closings. If school is delayed due to weather, morning classes will most likely be canceled. If school is released early due to weather, evening classes will most likely be canceled. If school is closed for the day, but weather and driving conditions improve throughout the day, we will likely hold classes.
Closings will be posted on our Facebook page and on KCRG. Affected families will also receive an email announcing the closure. In the event of a last-minute closure, a text message will be sent to affected families, provided we have text permissions on your account.
Weather-related closings will not be refunded. Classes may be made up at our regularly scheduled makeup classes.
Yes! Private lessons and semi-private lessons are available. Please contact the gym to schedule a private lesson.
