Gymnast balancing on the beam

Our gymnastics school offers everything your child needs to learn how to tumble through the air with ease. Sessions are led by fully qualified coaches, and children have use of a full-sized beam, A-bars, floor area and vault.

Our school is suitable for children of any age or ability. 

Parent-led pre-school gymnastics

This is a great way for your child to explore the basics of gymnastics through play, and parents to build a relationship with your child through movement in a semi structured class.

The coach will lead a structured warm up and cool down and have a variety of gymnastics apparatus that you can explore together to build on the foundations of gymnastic movement skills. The coach will be on hand to direct you and offer fun ways to engage with your child. 

These sessions run on Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 9.30am to 10.20am and are suitable for children aged from 0 to 3.

Structured pre-school gymnastics 

This is a great follow-on session for those children ready to be independent in learning gymnastics.

The coach will lead a fully structured class exploring our gymnastics apparatus on beam, floor, vault and bars. Children can begin to learn and build on the foundation skills of forward and backward rolls, cartwheels and other fun gymnastics shapes which will build on their strength, balance and co-ordination.

These sessions run on Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 10.30am to 11.20am and are suitable for children aged from 3 to 5.

Recreational gymnastics (ages 5 and up)

Our recreational gymnastics are the perfect follow on from our pre-school classes or for those children that are of school age 5 and up. 

The sessions are coach-led, with a dynamic warm up and games followed by building on their skills on the vault, floor, beams and bar. Gymnasts will finish their session with a structured cool down led by our coaches.

Gymnasts will learn the grass roots foundation moves that will allow them to progress into other sports. Our sessions are non-competitive and are designed to help students work on skills such as cartwheels, forward and backward rolls, handstands and the beginning of somersaults and tumbling.

Our recreational sessions run every Sunday morning from:

  • 8.30am to 9.30am for ages 5 to 7
  • 9.40am to 10.40am for ages 5 to 8
