Classes at Gymtopia

Adult assisted preschool classes

  • Adulted assisted sessions are aimed at toddlers and adults. These sessions explore the beginning of structured classes. These classes are part led by our qualified preschool coaches and then assisted by them in the free play portion of the class.

    The session begins with a structured warm up for both adult and toddler to take part in. Working with hand apparatus, song and listening skills.

    Structured circuits will be set up around the gym for gymnasts and adults to spend free play time on.

    The session will then conclude with a structured cool down and goodbye activity.

    Parent and toddler sessions are ideal for introducing your toddler to gymnastics as well as increased social interaction and opportunities for play with yourself.

    Please note: your toddler must be supervised at all times by yourself or another adult. Coaches are at hand to help where needed but we encourage all adults to be involved within the session.

    Preschool classes run during term time only and gymnasts pay a reduced club membership as a result.

  • Adulted assisted preschool sessions are 45 minutes long.

  • We currently are not running adult assisted classes.
