Preschool Gymnastics
At Preschool Gymnastics, you and your child will be encouraged to participate in a wide range of activities that play an important part in your child’s physical development.
We use play and exploration to help develop:
-
Perceptual-motor Skills
-
Gross and fine motor skills
-
Balance, directionality, visual perception, visual tracking, postural awareness
-
Locomotor skills including walking, running, hopping, skipping, jumping
-
Non-loco motor skill such as: bending, twisting, pushing, climbing, pulling, lifting, turning and reaching
-
Communication skills: listening, observing and processing information
We include these developmental areas whilst working on specialised gymnastics skills such as forward rolls, swinging, jumping, landing, hanging, handstands, cartwheels and many other exciting gymnastic elements.

Parent Involvement in Preschool Programs
Classes for children aged 2-4 who are not yet at 4-Year Old Kindergarten ARE parent-assisted classes.
Mum or Dad or another adult carer comes into the gym and actively assists the child during the lesson.
Our 4 & 5-Year-old Kinder classes are independent classes, where the adults observe the class from the viewing area.
