Gymnastics for Girls Age 5+

We offer both recreational and competitive level gymnastics programs for girls from 5 years of age (Kindergarten) and above. Women's artistic gymnastics is a popular sport and has one of the highest participation rates for females under the age of 12 in Australia. Gymnastics teaches strength, flexibility, agility, posture and coordination on the four women's apparatus of Vault, Uneven Bars, Balance Beam and Floor Exercise.

All classes within our girls program have a compulsory $104 registration and insurance fee that is in addition to the term fees. This fee is payable once per calendar year by all participants and is charged to new gymnasts at enrolment. This fee is non-refundable regardless of how many terms are completed and non-transferable to another person. No family discounts are applied to this fee. The yearly registraton and insurance fee is scaled down across the year depending on the term that you join (Term 2 - $72.00, Term 3 - $48.00, Term 4 - $24.00).

Womens's gymnastics:
*Enhances co-ordination and agility, for body awareness and balance
*Develops posture and confident body movement, including the ability to land safely
*Enhances creativity and builds self-confidence, for sport and life
*Develops strength and flexibility, for life's constant challenges
*Develops healthy minds and bodies for now and later life

Our girls program structure is as follows:

Beginner / 1 year experience Gymnasts

Gym Springers (aged 5 in Kindergarten), Gym Bounders (ages 6 - 7) and Gym Balancers (ages 8 - 13)

Gym Springers, Gym Bounders and Gym Balancers are foundation programs for gymnasts who are new to the sport or who have completed 1 - 2 years of gymnastics in Kindergym, Pre-school Gymnastics or Kindergarten Gymnastics. Basic gymnastics skills are introduced and progressed in a fun, safe and engaging environment. These classes provide a solid foundation in basic gymnastics enabling gymnasts to either move into competitive levels in future years or focus on gymnastics as a recreational pursuit. Members will be given the opportunity to move into the next level when their skills are developed to an appropriate stage. Generally gymnasts will remain in the same class / level for one year before progressing. Our Gym Springers program is a mixed gender class specifically for children in Kindergarten (first year of primary school).

Experienced Gymnasts

Recreational Levels 1 - 5

As the girls learn new skills they are given the opportunity to progress to the next level within our recreational program. The skills are progressive and build on previous skills that have been learned in class. These levels are recreational and are focused on learning in a fun environment, but do provide the pathway to lead to the competitive levels for those who are interested in participating in competitions. Girls in Levels 1 and above have the opportunity to perform in our annual Club Championships and End of Year Showcase. Generally gymnasts will remain in the same level for one year before moving up if their skills have progressed appropriately. If enquiring about our Levels classes, please advise what previous gymnastics experience your daughter has so we can determine the best fit for her within our program. We will organise a skill assessment if deemed necessary by our Head Coach to determine the best fit within our program.
