About
Severn Gymnastics and Trampoline Club, located in Shrewsbury, offers a fun, friendly, and safe environment for children and adults to learn gymnastics and trampolining. With the sport of gymnastics experiencing rapid growth in the UK, Severn GTC is proud to be a part of this trend and provide opportunities for individuals to participate at any level.
Gymnastics not only involves activities that children and young people love, such as bouncing on trampolines and performing flips and handstands, but it also helps develop important physical competencies. These include motor skills like postural control, coordination, the ability to jump, land, and fall safely, and physical attributes like strength, flexibility, and balance. Research by Sport England in 2016 highlighted several positive outcomes resulting from participation in gymnastics, such as strong fundamental movement skills, a willingness to take risks and try new things, a disciplined approach to training, a positive attitude, enhanced physical skills, and improved concentration.
Severn GTC, named after the nearby River Severn, operates from purpose-built facilities on Mount Pleasant Road. They offer classes for all ages, from infants and pre-schoolers to adult trampolining classes. Their gym is well-equipped with a sprung floor, beam, uneven bars, tumble track, double mini trampolines (DMT), springboards, and safety mats, providing the perfect environment to teach gymnastics. All coaches at Severn GTC have been CRB checked and hold qualifications to teach artistic, general, and freestyle gymnastics.
They also have coaches trained in gymnastics and movement for people with disabilities. Additionally, the club gives gymnasts the opportunity to participate in displays and competitions throughout the West Midlands.
