Founded in 1998 and operating out of Bunscoill Rhumsaa infants school, this family-run club specialises in coach-supervised and coach-led pre-school gym classes for the under-5's. Affiliated to the British Gymnastics Association (BGA), the emphasis is on 'having fun' whilst learning & honing key physical skills such as balancing, climbing, rolling & jumping. We offer 2 interactive Saturday-morning
classes; one with adult participation and the second child-independent. The format for both classes is identical but tailored for the age groups; warm up, action song, hand apparatus activity (bean bags, balloons, balls, ropes, hoops, parachute etc) followed by large apparatus station (benches, boxes, soft play) and free play. We normally work around school terms with each gym term around 10-13 weeks long. Each week the hand apparatus is changed whilst our approach to the large apparatus (2 weeks per skill focus) allows for the learning and practising of the core motor skills groups; balancing, climbing, jumping and rolling. The classes are led by the club owner and fully qualified BGA pre-school coach with 21 years experience. Class 1: 09:15-10:00 for the under 3's plus adult (coach supervised). Class 2: 10:15-11:15 for 3+4 yr-olds (coach-led)
