Classes, Descriptions & Times

Recreational Level 1 (Monday - Friday 4.00pm-4.45pm & Saturday 9.00am-9.45am)

·     Approximate ages 3-5yrs

·     We attempt to bridge that gap between the child that has physically and socially grown out of the pre-school program. Classes are for all levels of ability and commitment. Girls and boys. We will be providing children with a fun approach to the learning of the basics in gymnastics. Utilizing our floor, vault, balance beam, parallel bars and inflatable air track. At J’amies we will be using British Gymnastics’ proficiency reward scheme of badges and certificates.

Recreational Level 2 (Monday - Friday 4.45pm-5.30pm & Saturday 9.45am-10.30am)

·     Approximate ages 6-8yrs

·     This stage involves an area of basic specialisation within the learning of multilateral physical preparation and basic skill/element acquisition.

Recreational Level 3 (Monday - Friday 5.30pm-6.15pm & Saturday 10.30am-11.15am)

·     Approximate ages 9-15yrs

·     This is an area that involves specialised physical preparation and the acquisition of more advanced core skills.

Pre-school (Saturday 11.30am-12.15pm)

·     Approximate ages 18mths-3.5yrs

·     This is our first stage of development and is designed to encourage young people to become physically active and to develop the fundamental movement skills they need, whether they choose to take part in gymnastics, other sports or pursue an active lifestyle. This involves both adult and child, and independent child participation, at the discretion of the coach. These classes should begin to introduce the foundations for gymnastics skills, including an emphasis on body management and the acquisition of key body shapes. A rounded development of other important non-gymnastics specific fundamentals should also be gained.

Adult Classes (Thursday 8.30pm-9.30pm)

·     Approximate ages 15-60yrs

·     For the ‘Peter Pan’ inside you! Come and join our adult classes, they are open to all abilities – no experience necessary. Enjoyable and a great way to get toned and keep fit!
