Both boys and girls who are not at full-time school are welcome to attend these sessions which focus on supporting each child’s physical development through fitness in a fun and positive environment, aiming to help them grow in confidence to try new activities and skills. Gymnastics helps children to learn about body awareness, improves their body coordination and hand-eye coordination as well as develops muscle strength. During these classes, we will aim to help the children develop emotionally, cognitively and physically.
Each session will be led by qualified coaches, teaching the basic gymnastic skills and progressions in small groups, working on a variety of apparatus including balance beams, vaulting blocks, springboards, trampette and a tumble air track as well as using a variety of hand-held apparatus.
Children attend these sessions independently and they provide an excellent stepping stone to one of our gymnastics programmes for school-age children.
