Our Programs
Gymnastics is a sport that is not just for a year, but for your whole life. What do we mean by that? Gymnastics is known to not only improve physical aspects associated with sport, but also enhance many aspects used in everyday life. Benefits include flexibility, coordination, body awareness, physical strength, balance, self-motivation, discipline, cognitive learning, social skills and work ethic. Each program aims to give your child the most of the benefits associated with gymnastics, specific to that age and level.
Beginner Gymnastics
KinderGym
Once your child has reached the stage of being able to listen and actively follow basic instructions, they can come try the Kinder Gym class. In this parent-participant class, you are right there on the floor guiding your child along a multitude of different activities, sharing in their joy of learning in their early years. Kinder Gym is the first stepping stone to allowing children to build their independence and overcome personal obstacles through learning and play. Kinder Gym aims to improve skills such as coordination, balance and strength in a fun, colourful environment.
Advanced Gymnastics
General Gymnastics Advanced (Girls)
Girls that have already mastered basic gymnastics skills and are ready for a new challenge will be invited to join the Advanced General Gymnastics classes.
These classes focus on the Australian National Level program in Women’s Artistic Gymnastics (WAG). Girls within these classes will begin learning skills and routines for each apparatus (beams, bars, floor and vault) within national levels 1-5, as well as focus on general physical development. Attendance is required only once per week, but more than once is advisable, making this the perfect class for those who are no longer beginners but have busy schedules.
In Term 3 of every year, gymnasts are given the opportunity to showcase their hard work in Academy’s largest competition of the year involving several other clubs. Depending on the level, children are also given the opportunity to compete at several regional competitions throughout the year.
