Frequently Asked Questions

How do I enroll?

We ask all parents to create a New Member account by registering on our Parent Portal.
After you register you will have access to NOLA Gymnastics Parent Portal (our online class registration program).

  • All registrations MUST be completed online using our Parent Portal. (no exception please)
  • Parent Portal must be accessed using a Personal computer or Laptop only. * Mobile browsers are not supported.
  • New students will have more success getting their first-class choice if they register early.
  • Some class times are more popular than others and fill up rapidly.
Parent Observation and Supervision
Parents may enter campus or stay during classes. We ask you to limit your visits to only ONCE PER MONTH.
  • Please sign Parent VISITOR sheet on the wall and check the month you attended.
  • Parents are not allowed beyond the waiting area and not allowed at the cubbies.
  • You must leave at the end of class and line up at the Danneel Street Garage for PICK UP.
  • No child will be released in the waiting room.
During class time, please leave the teaching and discipline to us. Many young children are beginning a structured class for the first time. Part of the learning your child will receive involves:
  • Listening to directions.
  • Keeping his/her spot in line.
  • Taking turns being first and last in line.
  • Working cooperatively with other children & instructors.

We know that watching your child go through this process of learning is difficult. However, we ask that you refrain from giving your child instruction or discipline during class time. What may be helpful is to remind your child to listen to the teacher before class begins.

If your child is unhappy with his/her class, please observe the class first. If you feel the class is not right for your child contact coach Gretchen. Our coaches will work with you to find a solution and keep any problems confidential.

How do I become a member?

We ask all parents to create a member account by registering on our parent portal. You will be required to sign our online waiver prior to attending any NOLA Gymnastics events.

Please click on Parent Portal / Register to complete this process. Once you have created an account and have your login and password, you can request a class to enroll in.

What should my child wear?

For all students loose fitting clothing must be worn to allow freedom of movement.

  • Our only request is that the clothing be free of zippers and buttons.
  • Girls are to wear a leotard and a ponytail.
  • Ponytails must be worn on gymnastic days to avoid injuries and promote safety.
  • No bulky hairpieces or jewelry.
  • Hair bands or any kind of hair tie barrettes are not allowed.
  • Long hair should be securely tied back.
  • When glasses are worn, wear a safety strap to keep the glasses on - there is a lot of flight and rotation involved, therefore glasses should be secured.

You may purchase a NOLA Leotard at the gym, please ask coach Gretchen.
