For the littlies aged 18 months to 4 years, parents join in the fun to help build confidence and social skills through playful sessions.
Kyleab Ellis, a former NZ men's gymnastics team member, leads the preschool classes. He’s passionate about making gymnastics a safe, fun adventure for young kids.
There are also classes for four-year-olds where parents watch from the sidelines, letting kids gain independence and get ready for the next gymnastics stage.
