KinderGym
  

GYM TOTS (2.5 YEARS OLD TO 4 YEARS OLD)

This KinderGym class designed for 2.5 years old to 4 years old refines movements and further develops gross motor movement. Cognitive and social development comes into perspective.

Children overcome hurdles, build confidence and work towards independence. Kids can then focus on key movements, improving core strength and working with their centre of gravity.

Gym Tots learn to take turns, play with others, understand direction and start to follow instructions.

Our budding gymnasts balance, swing, continue to develop upper body strength, and practice jumping.

This is a parent/caregiver assisted class.


GYM KIDS (4 YEARS OLD TO PRE-PREP)

Gym Kids is for children from 4 years old to pre-prep who are looking for more challenges.

Being a little older, our Gym Kids classes enjoy more independent exploration and discovery time with their coaches. This program refines movement, core strength and focuses on both lower and upper both strength.

Listening and social skills develop as children interact with others within a group. Children learn to move their bodies in all directions with forward and backwards rolls, and develop both sides of the body through balancing exercises.

We help children to gain independence in preparation for school. Parents become less involved as children come under the instruction of our expert coaches.

Gym Kids balance, swing, skip, climb, hang and refine single leg and arm movements.

Rhythmic Gymnastics

Rhythmic Gymnastics is where art meets sport. Its beauty thrives from dance movements choreographed to a variety of music. It improves children’s flexibility, core strength, both physical and eye hand coordination as well as teaching them creative movement. The gymnasts use hand held apparatus – Rope, Hoop, Ball, Clubs and Ribbon in individual and group routines. We start children from 6 years age and provide classes for beginners to advanced. All classes are currently conducted under the highly regarded coach Diana Sierra from Spain.
