Why should students do gymnastics?
It has been claimed to be the foundation of all sports!

 

With the Olympics in mind, we don’t think anyone would disagree that gymnastics at a high level can get pretty tricky, right?   But, if you want to be a master of anything, you’ve got to start somewhere.  

 

And you'd have to agree, that being able to control your body in space is pretty much essential for any sport or physical activity...  If you don’t have control of your body, we reckon it’d be fairly safe to assume that putting a ball or a bat into the mix, and then adding other people, is only going to complicate the situation further!

 

Now, don’t get us wrong!  These programs haven't been created with the intention of developing future elite gymnasts.  Sure, there may be a few kids doing programs who have the necessary skills, natural talent and determination to take the path to Olympic glory, but what about the future AFL rovers, the Diamond’s Goal Attacks or the future Wallabies players? 

 

How about the thousands of kids who may just want to lead a happy, healthy and active lifestyle as adults? It's really important that all children learn how to manage their bodies and what better way to do it than through fun movement activities.
