About Our Classes

Each week we write a themed session plan around gymnastics so that every session with us is different and memorable. Our themes include the weather, transport, gardening, pirates, animals, camping and kings and queens. The sessions are varied, challenging and FUN. We design them to develop physical and mental agility, improve co-ordination and balance, enhance communication, develop social skills and inspire creativity, all in a fun and safe environment.

The class structure is as follows; we start with a 10-minute warm-up involving 2 elements, which are different each week. Then 25-30 minutes on the apparatus, including a demonstration of all apparatus. Two of the following skills are coached each week: handstands, cartwheels, vaulting, bars, parallel bars, beam and rebound. Additionally, there are many side activities for the children to do with their parents/carer. We finish with a calming cool down.

To further enhance our classes and motivate the children we use the British Gymnastics FUNdamentals Badge Scheme. The children in our classes love being awarded the badges and wear them with pride on their Gymtastic
t-shirts.

Classes are split into the following age ranges:

Club 2: Toddler - 2½ Years.
Club 3: 2½ Years - 3½ Years.
Club 4: 3½ Years - 5 Years (Fully Independent).

NB: This is a guide only.
