New Member Information:
If you would like to bring in your gymnast for a taster session or to simply watch one of our squads so they understand the sport they are looking to participate in, please contact us to arrange the appointment.
During a taster session, your gymnast will be given the chance to warm up, demonstrate any skills they currently have, be tested on new skills and then complete a short Q&A session. The purpose of the taster session is to ensure your gymnast is placed in the right squad from the outset.
Please ensure your gymnast is wearing clothing appropriate for tumbling and gymnastics participation (such as a leotard and shorts). They will also need plenty of water to ensure they stay hydrated throughout the session.
We would be delighted to answer any questions you may have.
