About Tumble Kids De

Welcome to Tumble Kids, Where Every Child Can Shine

Tumble Kids is a family-owned gymnastics gym built on passion, dedication, and a lifelong love for the sport. At the heart of the gym is Janine Waters, the founder and owner, who brings more than 35 years of coaching experience and over a decade of gym ownership to the community. Originally from England, Janine began her career training under the traditional European system. Her foundation in that style provided a strong technical base, but as her coaching journey evolved, and as a mother, she developed a teaching philosophy rooted in compassion, encouragement, and joy. Her approach today blends technical excellence with a nurturing environment that builds confidence in every gymnast.

Janine is a single mother of three and has dedicated her life to creating opportunities for children to experience the same joy, discipline, and community that gymnastics brought to her life. She began teaching her daughter gymnastics before she could even walk, instilling in her the fundamentals of movement, focus, and self-belief from the very beginning.

That daughter is now the co-owner and manager of Tumble Kids. At just 19 years old, Hannah is a college student at Delaware State University and has already accumulated 7 years of coaching experience. Raised in the gym and immersed in the sport from birth, she has transformed her childhood passion into a meaningful career. She is devoted to making every gymnast feel seen, supported, and inspired. Her energy, relatability, and deep-rooted love for gymnastics make her a strong role model for the next generation.

Together, this mother and daughter team has created Tumble Kids, a place where athletes are not only taught skills, but also encouraged to grow into confident, resilient individuals. Their unique bond and shared mission make Tumble Kids feel less like a gym and more like a family.

At Tumble Kids, we believe gymnastics is for everyone, regardless of experience, ability, background, or age. Whether your child is trying gymnastics for the first time or dreams of competitive success, they’ll find a place here.

Our philosophy is simple:
Everyone deserves the chance to fall in love with gymnastics.

We meet each person where they are, celebrate their individual progress, and help them set goals they’re proud to reach. We aim to make every class a space where children feel safe, motivated, and part of something special.

Through expert instruction, positive reinforcement, and a whole lot of fun, we’re building strong bodies, strong minds, and strong futures, one tumble at a time.
