Priority register for currently active families opens on December 9.
Registration to the general public opens on December 16.
​
New Families and Students: A link that says "Register" will appear in the left column of the class listing when registration is open for that class. Clicking this link will bring you to a secure site with our web registration form. If the link says "Waitlist", it means enrollment is full, but you may add yourself to the waitlist. When openings come up, or we add another class, we will email you. If there is no link that means the class and the waitlist are both full.
There is never a link for the intermediate or advanced classes since these registration links are sent directly to the families in these classes. If you are new to the program and want your gymnast to be assessed for intermediate or advanced, please send us an email to info@sokolbaltimore.org with some notes about their skill level. We will set up an assessment.
