Recreational Gymnastics
Term 1, 2024 starts: Thursday 1st February
Gymnastics is an amazing activity for everyone, building all the basic fundamental skills for most sports.
Classes are fun, energetic and challenging. Gymnasts participate in a variety of activities using circuits to keep every individual as active as possible. Balancing, rolling, twisting, climbing, swinging and jumping assist your child in the development of coordination, confidence, creativity, spacial awareness and self esteem. Classes incorporate games, group and partner activities, hand held apparatus and the use of all gymnastics equipment including mini tramps, trampolines, bars, rings, beams, boxes and mats. Children who have the skill level and capability to move past our recreational classes are invited to attend the transition and advanced recreational classes.
