Adult Gymnastics Class returns from it’s Christmas break on January 26th, 8.20 – 9.35pm.
Who is Adult Gymnastics Class for?
The class is open to both men and women aged 18+ with a sense of fun, adventure and looking to try something new and different! Our current members range from early 20’s to their 40’s.
Do I have to have done gymnastics before?
No, not at all. The majority of our class have never done gymnastics. We cater for beginners up to ex-gymnasts and coaches. No experience is necessary, many of our current members have come through our doors, very shy, having never done a tumble before and after the first class or after a couple of weeks have left having performed a cartwheel, handstand or a front somersault! We also have had many adults attend class who have definitely missed their true calling as a gymnast!
What happens in a typical class?
Class kicks off with a group cardio warm up with some body conditioning mixed in. We then stretch out to prepare for working on the apparatus. We spread our time out between all of the apparatus; Bars, Beam, Floor, Vault, Trampoline and Tumble Track. We finish off with a gentle stretch and cool down at the end. Above all there will be a lot of laughing!
What do I need to wear?
Leotards are not compulsory but if you really want to…! Wear something comfortable, for women we recommend leggings and a tshirt and for men fitted tracksuit bottoms or shorts and a tshirt.
