Rhythmic Xcel is a competitive program that allows children to compete with less training time and experience, allowing them to have more time for activities outside of gymnastics. This is a wonderful program that allows girls to have the opportunity to perform and receive feedback on the apparatus and body skills they have learned.

There are seven levels of this program, Super Stars through Platinum. Levels Super Stars and Copper are for athletes just beginning to master basic skills, levels Bronze and Silver are for athletes who are starting to to perform more complex routines and levels Gold, Diamond, and Platinum are for seasoned competitors.

There are no assigned routines for each level and gymnasts can perform up to three individual routines at competition. Our girls typically perform a floor routine and one or two apparatus routines (ball, hoop, rope, clubs, etc.) Gymnasts are judged on their individual skills and can receive a maximum score of 100 points on a routine.

At Prima, we require athletes to attend at least one year of recreational classes before joining the Xcel team. We use this program both as the first level of our competitive program and as way for gymnasts to progress at the rate that is best for them.

Exceptions may be made for those who have performed in a related sport. Our Xcel gymnasts typically practice 4 to 10.5 hours per week depending on age and level.
