Tumbling Classes
ABOUT THE TEAM
Are you looking for kids gymnastics classes? Cheerleading and tumbling offers similar opportunities whilst benefiting from being a team sport! This season your child will not only learn fundamental tumbling skills, but also develop invaluable teamwork and social skills whilst building their confidence and making lifelong friendships! Children can start learning to tumble with us from the age of 6!
WHO’S IT FOR?
Our children’s tumble team is for anyone wanting to either put in extra work into their tumbling alongside their usual cheerleading sessions or for any kids wanting to focus their attention on tumbling alone without joining a cheerleading team. Either way, your child will get the support needed to consistently progress their tumble skills both safely and quickly.
It is also great for any children that have done gymnastics previously or other sports such as trampolining. People often find that they appeal to tumbling the most when they start gymnastics, and this is the perfect opportunity to focus on just that! You won’t need to spend any time on skills you are not interested in learning and the class and coaches will offer a flexible approach where children can choose what goals they would like to work towards. This team has the benefits of gymnastics but in a much more sociable environment where they can really maintain the team spirit of a cheer squad.
WHAT’S THE TRAINING LIKE?
This season we are THRILLED to announce World Champion and Top Gun Double O Alumni, Charlie Wilson, as our Head of Tumble! Charlie will lead a team of trained coaches who will be on hand to spot a child or give them drills to practice in sessions or at home. They can explain the fundamentals of different skills and lay out the steps needed to achieve each one. We have full sprung tumble tracks and an air track alongside other tumbling equipment. This helps children gradually progress their tumbles until they are ready to attempt them on the floor.
WHAT’S THE TEAM LIKE
The team will be all children who are eager to learn some new tumbling skills. You will quickly be introduced to the rest of the group on arrival and get consistent support throughout the sessions. The kids are all so supportive of each other and get so excited when people achieve a new stunt! Any children who really enjoy these classes will always have the option to join one of the cheer squads so they can get the best of both and spend more time exercising with their new teammates.
