Learn and develop fundamental skills in gymnastics from 18 months to 14 years. That's 12 ½ years of jumping, rolling, handstands and cartwheeling!

FUNdemental movement

Our 18 months to four years 'Gymnastics for All' courses teach core physical skills and life skills with a focus on the four F's:

  • Fun
  • Fitness
  • Friendship
  • FUNdementals

From toddler age (with the help of parents), young gymnasts are taught in an engaging way to develop essential physical, emotional, educational, creative and social skills through a range of exciting activities. By the end of the course, children will have the confidence to flourish in all manner of activities.

Core proficiency

As budding gymnasts move from the pre-school stage, classes work to develop core skills such as balance, strength, flexibility and coordination in a fun, pulse-raising fashion, with 80 different activities to choose from. Working through eight levels of attainment (with plenty of awards to pick up along the way), kids will become proficient in a number of gymnastic disciplines, building confidence and forming lasting friendships along the way.

All gymnastics classes are delivered by qualified British Gymnastics, DBS-checked coaches and held at Gateshead Leisure Centre.
