Advised that gymnasts come dressed in their gymnastics attire and bring minimal belongings. There are separate changing areas for boys and girls.

At Leicester Gymnastic Dance Academy, we offer gymnastics classes for boys and girls of all abilities. As an affiliated club to Leicestershire Gymnastics Association, East Midlands Gymnastics Association, and British Gymnastics, we adhere to high standards of training and safety. We are proud to be 'Club Mark' affiliated, which means that we are able to provide gymnastics training in a safe, friendly, and effective environment.

Our mission is to provide opportunities in gymnastics to all sections of the community and to promote the benefits of participating in gymnastics for general fitness, health, and well-being. We believe that gymnastics is a sport that can be enjoyed by everyone, regardless of their age or skill level.

All of our coaches at Gymnastic Dance Academy have undergone enhanced DBS checks that are valid for three years. They are a friendly and dedicated team, committed to delivering quality gymnastics coaching. Our coaches strive to offer best practise in this complex sport and understand that competitive gymnastics may not be suitable for every child. They are professionally trained through British Gymnastics and have years of experience and success in helping gymnasts achieve their dreams.
