Do I need experience? - we have participants of all levels of experience. Please note, however, that this is an "open gym" style class with no coaching.
What to Wear? - no jewellery; please wear leggings/shorts/t-shirt/vest top/crop top, or gymnastics clothing and bare feet—no items with zips/jeans/hoods. Tape over jewellery that cannot be removed. Hair tied back. No cheer shoes on apparatus or matting.
Is the class coached? - there is a groupgroup warm-up / 5-minute conditioning followed by a 50-minute open gym session where you can utilise apparatus without coach supervision, then a structured 5-minute group stretch cool down at the end. The open gym section of the session is not coach-led. Participants are free to explore the gym. We do not currently offer adult coaching or 121's. Participants are responsible for their training, ensuring they are physically fit to participate and train appropriate preps and setups for their fitness and skill level, with the responsibility of checking their own equipment station before and during their session.
Do I need British Gymnastics Insurance? - Each participant gets a maximum of two trial sessions before purchasing British Gymnastics <BG> Insurance. This is £22 per year and purchased directly from www.british-gymnastics.org; recreational insurance is required for training. If you are already a different club member or coach at a club and have BG insurance, you do not need additional insurance; add City of Preston Gymnastics as a secondary club to your account, and you are covered.
Please note that we keep a register for attendance. If a participant has had two sessions already and has yet to complete insurance, they will not be able to train in the 3rd session. No refunds are given if you prebook the session without sorting insurance.
Is there a shop onsite? - yes, there is a reception shop for food and drink and a club kit shop where participants can purchase City of Preston Gymnastics kit and gymnastics merchandise. For students, there will also be a college/uni-themed kit for local teams.
