Bouncing, spinning, rolling! Your children are already natural-born gymnasts. So if you want to help them develop their physical skills, what better place to start?
Our preschool gymnastics at Tumble emphasise both fun and safety in a bright and purpose-built facility. Development is gained through organised and focused fun.
These sessions are designed to improve listening, balance, coordination, the development of fine motor skills and the very basic movements in gymnastics that will make the foundation for more advanced skills later on. With expert coaching and supervision and a playful environment, it’s a great way for them to have fun and lay the foundations of a healthy, active lifestyle.
Your budding gymnast can jump straight into the world of preschool gymnastics at Tumble.
With an adventure playground to explore and lots of exciting themes and activities to get involved in, the sessions are always energetic and entertaining. And while they’re having fun with new friends, they’ll also be getting a head start in the world of physical exercise.
Tumble Cubs – With Accompanied Adult
Cubs is an adult and toddler session aimed for the very beginning of structured sessions.
This is a part structured and part free play class lasting 45 minutes.
Tumble Cubs incorporates a weekly theme, structured warm up, action songs, hand apparatus, floor
circuits, time for free play and a goodbye cool down song for each session. Your child will
start to develop their listening and communication skills and learn how their body can move
in these fun filled classes.
With over 15 years experience coaching preschool gymnastics and over 30 years of involvement within the sport of gymnastics, Paula Thomas (an ex Olympian and high performance coach) and her team will provide you with all the help and encouragement you and your child will need for an enjoyable session.
You do not need a British Gymnastics membership for insurance with an adult and toddler class.
Tumble Tigers – Fully Independent
Tigers are fully independent and enter the class on their own with the supervision and expert coaching of the Tumble Team. These are 45 minute classes for children aged 3-5 years.
Your child will enjoy a theme based session and structured circuits on different apparatus such as bars, beam and floor. They will enjoy exploring the use of different hand apparatus and equipment as well as fun songs and games along the way.
