General Gymnastics Classes
Currently we offer beginners/intermediate classes on a Friday evening 3.45 - 4.45pm.
These classes focus on developing a basic level of fitness as well as teaching body awareness through gymnastic activities.
All classes follow a similar format and incorporate simple acrobatic gymnastics as well as teaching individual gymnastic skills.
Gymnasts will take part in one session per week.
Friday classes run for 10 or 12 weeks and do not run during school holidays. The terms for Friday classes begin in September,
January and April.
For existing members, places need to be reserved 3-4 weeks ahead of the new term.
New members will be enrolled 1-2 weeks prior to the beginning of each term. If you are on our waiting list we will contact
you when spaces become available, alternatively you can contact us.

Squad Gymnastics
Our 'Squad' gymnasts train and compete regionally, nationally and internationally.
Gymnasts are invited to join a squad through a talent identification program,from recognition by coaches and from participation
in other classes.
There are 3 different 'squads', these are:
FIG - Gymnasts in this squad
will be competing at the highest level in Great Britain and travelling to international events around the world; representing
the club and ultimately we hope representing Great Britain. Gymnasts in this squad train 5/6 evenings a week plus mornings.
FIG Development - We see gymnasts in this squad as having the potential to compete at FIG but because
of age or a new partnership are currently not ready to do this level of work. Gymnasts will work one or both of the FIG and
NDP programmes. There will be opportunities to do FIG international events if gymnasts are the correct ages and the right
level. Gymnasts in this squad train 3-5 times each week.
NDP - Gymnasts in this squad will compete
at NDP and will be able to take part in many regional and possibly national events at this level. Gymnasts in this squad train
1-4 times each week.
The gymnastic year is split into four terms:
Sept 1st - Nov 30th
Dec 1st - Feb 28th
March 1st - May 31st
June 1st - August 31st
Fees are payable in full at the start of each term.
We reserve the right to cancel any session during the scheduled term dates.
