Competitive Gymnastics

SUCCESS Gymnastics provides two different programs for competitive gymnasts. Our goal is to provide a positive competitive experience for those interested!

Our Programs

SUCCESS Gymnastics provides two different programs for competitive gymnasts. Some gymnasts go into the DEVO program (formerly JO program) and others may go into the XCEL program. Both programs were developed by USA Gymnastics, the governing body for gymnastics in the United States.

The DEVO Program (formerly JO)

From USA Gymnastics, The Women’s Development Program was created with the belief that all athletes, regardless of their potential, must have a solid foundation of basic skills in order to advance safely. The program allows the gymnast to advance at her own pace, competing in more than one level in a year, if she so chooses.

DEVO is divided into three major segments; developmental, compulsory, and optional.

At SUCCESS we compete levels 2-10. Compulsory = 2-5, Optional = 6-10

The XCEL Program

From USA Gymnastics, The USA Gymnastics XCEL program was developed as an alternative competitive program offering individual flexibility to coaches and gymnasts. The goal of XCEL is to provide gymnasts of varying abilities and commitment levels the opportunity for a rewarding gymnastics experience. The program allows a wide choice in skills to meet requirements so selection may be based on an individual athlete’s strengths.

The focus of the XCEL program is sportsmanship, leadership, teamwork, and fun. The emphasis in the Xcel program is on correct technique, form, and performance. This program is designed to be a skill based, recreational level. Our XCEL athletes train 6-9 hours per week and go to several competitions throughout the year. The benefits of the XCEL Program include less time commitment, less expense and more flexibility in their gymnastics requirements allowing broader participation.

Over the last four years, we have had two gymnasts go on to compete for NCAA gymnastics teams and earn a college scholarship. We have also produced several state and regional champions and have qualified to the DEVO (JO) National Championships all four years.
