General Gymnastics ClassesInformation about General Gymnastics Classes
All children wishing to try gymnastics at the Harefield Gymnastics Academy can have a free taster session on any of the days we hold classes. To book a taster session please go to the 'Contact Us' page and contact the 'Registration Co-ordinator'.
There are three terms in our General Gymnastics calendar which follow a school year. Each term works towards a focussed end of term activity.
Term 1 - Club Championships Term - Badge Testing Term 3 - Club Display
Our General Gymnasts have fun learning the basics and developing skills, confidence, strength , co-ordination and agility . All children are encouraged to develop at their own pace, simply so that they may enjoy all of the physical and mental benefits inherent to gymnastics. We teach our gymnasts ‘life skills’ through developing their self-confidence, communication skills, teamwork and setting and achieving goals.
Classes
*20% discount for one class for children that attend Harefield Infants School, Harefield Junior School or The Harefield Academy.
Each class is split into three different groups. The gymnasts are placed into one of these groups based on age and ability. (This is a unique feature of the club which allows parents with more than one child to have their children attend the same session.) Each group has a maximum of 12 gymnasts to 2 coaches. This is below the British Gymnastics policy of coach gymnast ratio.
Advanced Class
An Invitational Group takes place on a Wednesday session each week in which gymnasts are invited to when they reach Level 1 in our Club Elementary Awards system. This class begins to work on Acrobatic skills where gymnasts work collaboratively in pairs and groups as well as continuing work on floor and vault skills.
