We signed up for a parent-tot class, once a week, for 2 weeks to give it a try. We weren't sure how she'd like it as she tends to be a bit reserved and likes to watch before trying new things/interacting with new people. Our fears were fruitless, however, as she had a ball!
We both went, Nathan taking most of the pictures while I helped her through the obstacle course that was her class (we switched when I needed to rest for a minute). She did so great! She tried everything and all things considered listened very well. It will take a while for her to learn to "wait her turn" and "stand in line" but she's only 18 months, the youngest in the class, and we couldn't have been more pleased. 
She wasn't shy at all about trying new things, although the enthusiastic teacher was a bit overwhelming for her (she warmed up to her a bit at the end), and thoroughly enjoyed walking on the beam, rolling down the "cheese mat," running across the tumble track (trampoline) as she hasn't figured out how to jump, climbing through the foam pit, scurrying through the tunnel, and playing with the parachute at the end of class.
We went ahead and signed her up for the next 6 week session. Gymnastics was a huge hit and it wore her little fanny out - mine too for that matter!

That's my girls!!!!!! It looks like she loved it!
Oh that is so fun! :) You all look like you had a great time. You should take the video camera with you for a few of those classes. I've watched some video of you and me in gymnastics class (though a few years older) and it's really cute and funny to watch all these years later.
