We run an accessible gymnastics program designed for children with a disability.
Every child should have the opportunity to get started with gymnastics. That's why we offer an inclusive gymnastics program for children with a disability who are over five years of age.
We work with children with a range of special needs to strengthen their skills and confidence. Our coaches adapt movements to create sessions that suit all physical and mental abilities.
