Answer 1

In a tumbling class, you learn floor which is flips and different skills. The only equipment you will use is the tumbling floor and the tramp. It has nothing to do with gymnastics or cheerleading. go to your local gym and ask them about their tumbling programs and such.  

Answer 2

Tumbling class doesn't have a lot to do with cheering, except sometimes they do some jump training as well as flips. You can watch tumbling class videos here: http://aescougarcheer.com/Cheer101/tumbl...

Answer 3

At my gym a tumbling class is when you work on skills on floor and trampoline only. There is no cheering involved there is no other gymnastics equipment involved. Its you and your class, instructor, possibly some mats and the floor and tramp. That is all you use.  You work on what ever skills you need to progress. so call up a local gym and ask some questions
