Are you the owner of Sapphire Gymnastics Club Mark Road Site?
Sapphire Gymnastics Club Mark Road Site, an academy in Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire, holds a special spot in the heart of Cathy, the organiser. Since its inception in 1976, Sapphire has blossomed into one of the UK's largest clubs, welcoming individuals of all ages and skill levels.
Cathy takes pride in the club's journey. The move to a purpose-built facility in 1996 enabled Sapphire to broaden its classes and training programmes. The sport's rising popularity saw Cathy open a second site in Hemel Hempstead in 2014 to accommodate an ever-growing number of gymnasts.
Today, Sapphire Gymnastics Club Mark Road Site is home to over 60 gymnasts in its elite programme and boasts more than 2000 recreational members. Thanks to Cathy and her team, the club is well-known for its dedicated coaches who help athletes unlock their full potential.
Cathy has ensured there's something for everyone at Sapphire. The Little Stars programme gives children aged 18 months to 3 years a fun introduction to gymnastics. The Diamonds programme continues this journey for kids aged 3 up to primary school age, focusing on basic skills and confidence. For older children, the General Gym programme builds skills and fitness.
For homeschooling families, the Home Ed Gym offers a structured curriculum. Adults aren't left out either, with pay-as-you-go sessions available. Those with exceptional talent can aim for the Elite Gymnastics programme, though it's by invitation only.
Cathy's commitment to a supportive and inspiring environment has earned praise from many parents. The coaches' dedication and the positive impact on children are often highlighted. Fun touches like awarding school class mascots as gymnasts of the week are just some ways Sapphire ensures an engaging experience.
Situated on Park Road in Hemel Hempstead, the club extends its reach to surrounding areas. For any enquiries, the team is available at 01442 230077 option 1. And for those closer to Pitstone, a brand new location now operates at 8 Harvington Park, reachable at 01442 230077 option 2.
With Cathy at the helm, Sapphire Gymnastics Club Mark Road Site continues to thrive, welcoming individuals of all ages and abilities to experience the joy and benefits of gymnastics in a supportive setting.
