Inclusive

We believe that gymnastics builds community, confidence, strength and focus and we aim to tailor our provision so that everybody can benefit from the sport. That might look like coaches making slight adaptations within a GymSchool class/performance squad, or it might look like attending our specifically planned Sunday sessions. These classes are designed for those gymnasts with greater support needs have been planned for a time when the gym is a quieter, calmer space to be in, and allow gymnasts to take things at a more appropriate pace for them.​

​We have witnessed some special moments in our Inclusive classes, from a first word being spoken (who wouldn't ask for "more" bounces on a trampoline?!), to long sought after skills being achieved, and long-lasting friendships being formed. ​

​How a session runs​

They follow a regular routine so that gymnasts feel safe, secure and able to progress. During our inclusive sessions, as in our GymSchool classes, gymnasts take part in a warm-up activity, a stretch, and then skill-based circuits/activities. We finish all our inclusive classes with time on the trampoline. ​
