Acrobatic Gymnastics Development Squad

 

 

The children are given the opportunity to improve their individual gymnastics, trampoline, tumbling, partnership and team building skills in the group, whilst being nurtured to reach their full potential by our team of dedicated and knowledgeable coaches. The gymnast’s ages generally range from 5 years to 9 years old.

The unique environment of younger children (5-6yrs) working alongside slightly older gymnasts (7-9yrs) allows for both the younger gymnasts to be inspired and encouraged whilst letting the older children see that there is a younger generation just ready to step into their shoes.

Parts of each development group class are split into two age groups so that both groups are taught the correct individual gymnastic skills and in a manner appropriate for their ages. Importantly the groups are also bought together to practice not only partnership work in balancing, throwing and catching but learning to work with different ages, team building, cooperation and trust. Essential assets for themselves as individuals as well as gymnasts.

For those that are gifted and are willing to give the required dedication and would like to strive for future gymnastics success, a place within the acrobatic gymnastics development squad is given by invitation only from our team of development and recreational coaches.
