Kingston Gymnastics is a registered British Gymnastics Club and operates out of the gym and dining hall at The Tiffin Girls' School. The club prides itself on creating a welcoming and inclusive environment for children of all ages and experience levels. Safety and welfare are paramount, and all coaches are trained to an appropriate standard, hold current DBS certificates, and possess a child protection and safeguarding qualification.
A typical class at Kingston Gymnastics begins with a group warm-up, tailored to the age of the participants and designed to prepare them physically for the session. The children are then split into smaller groups and rotate through various apparatus stations, including the matted floor, vault, beam, trampette, bar, and air mat. During these rotations, they work on a range of skills and progressions, all aimed towards achieving the club's badge scheme. Each class concludes with the presentation of stickers, badges, and certificates, recognising the gymnasts' achievements and progress.
Head Coach Rebecca leads the team at Kingston Gymnastics, bringing her extensive qualifications and experience to ensure a high standard of coaching. The coaching team also includes Lead Coach Mily, who has qualifications in a range of gymnastics disciplines and judging experience.
