• • Class Participation & Age Guidance

    • Age Requirement: Our independent classes are open to children of school age (Reception and above). Younger children are encouraged to start with our parent-and-child classes, where coaches will assess when they are ready to move into independent sessions.

    • Children’s Independence: Our independent classes are designed for children to participate without parental assistance. If your child isn’t quite ready—whether due to confidence, needing additional support, or requiring more time to adjust—we welcome them in our parent-and-child classes, regardless of age.

    • Supporting Every Child’s Development: We understand that children develop at their own pace, and our parent-and-child classes provide a supportive environment for those who may benefit from additional guidance before transitioning to an independent class. These sessions are ideal for children who:

      • Need extra reassurance to join and engage in class
      • Require support throughout the session beyond what can be accommodated in a group setting
      • Are still developing the skills necessary for independent participation

    • Additional Support Needs: If your child requires one-to-one support at school, they will likely need similar assistance in our classes. Our coaches are responsible for the entire group and must ensure their attention is spread evenly across all gymnasts. If a coach spends the majority of the session providing one-to-one support, it can impact the learning experience of the whole class and compromise safety. Because of this, we are unable to offer one-to-one support within independent classes. However, our parent-and-child class allows parents to actively assist their child during the session.

    • Independent Class Structure: To ensure a focused learning environment, only registered coaches are present in independent classes. Parents are unable to participate in these sessions, as they are designed for children to engage independently under the guidance of our coaching team.
