About our Beginner & Intermediate sessions
Children and teens aged 4 to 16 years
Overview
The gymnastic syllabus focuses on the gymnastic skills for the floor, bars, beam and vault apparatus. Children also work on their balance, strength, flexibility and co-ordination.
What to expect
Our classes start with a pulse-raising activity or game, followed by a full body stretch from head to toe. The gymnasts are then split into groups and will focus on two pieces of apparatus for the session. The gymnasts will rotate from floor and vault one week to bars and beam the following week.
Each session will finish 5 minutes early to allow time for the coaches to hand out their star of the week certificates. These will be handed to one gymnast per group.
If you’d like to sign your child up and book them onto a block of sessions, please complete the form on this page and we will be in touch, or call us on 01204 488 100.
