Desert Lights will have a slight increase in class fees beginning with your September payment. The increase amounts to $1.50 per lesson or less depending on the number of hours your gymnast takes. You will still find our rates to be less than other area gyms and our programs are second to none! You may pick up a copy of the new fee schedule when you register for Fall classes. Also read our Fees Section for further info.

Our Fall Office hours are as follows:

Although the gym is open other hours, these are the only times that there is a receptionist available for questions, purchases, or payments that need to be made in person. Checks can be placed in the drop box by the front door, or mailed anytime. We try to return all phone messages left during our office hours, but if your call has not been returned in a timely fasion, please call us again. Sometimes answering machine messages have static or are unclear and we cannot make out names or phone numbers. Thanks!!

1. Gymnasts should wear a comfortable leotard, with or without shorts or bike tights. Hair should be secured off the face and neck. Please do not bring jewelry or valuables to the gym!

2. There is no need to check in anymore. Coaches will check their class in. Gymnasts may wait in the area by the class beams for class.

3. All parents and siblings must wait in the upstairs viewing area or outside. By order of the Fire Marshall, the walkway by the front door, offices and bathrooms must be kept clear. For this reason, there can be no strollers.

4. Our coaches have to be prepared to begin their next class, so if you have a question, please write it down and the receptionist will put it in their box.

5. Our instructors work from lesson plans, so certain skills and apparatus are covered each lesson. Please be sure your child is at class on a regular basis and schedule make-ups if necessary.
