GYMNASTICS CLASSES FOR KIDS

Begin here, achieve everywhere with YMCA Gymnastics

Quality Gymnastics Classes in Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast

The YMCA offers classes for children from crawling age through to 13 years, youth classes from 14 years up, and adult classes. Our programs encourage children to participate in a safe and structured environment. Gymnasts can progress from KinderGym through to National Competition levels based on age and skill level. We have a variety of gymnastics programs for different levels to suit everyone's needs.

Gymnasts gain self-confidence, develop personal responsibility and attain leadership skills. They also learn to work together, making friendships that last a lifetime. Our Gymnastics Australia-accredited instructors love seeing students develop their movement skills while they build determination and discipline.
