About Learn 2 Recreational Gymnastics

Recreational Gymnastics

Gymnastics is a sport that children can begin at a young age and continue through their teen years. Some will have the ability to become competitive gymnasts while most will participate because they enjoy learning and developing new skills. Gymnastics is identified as a foundation sport for all sports and will increase strength, flexibility, endurance, coordination and social skills.

South Ayrshire Council run a number of pre-school and recreational gymnastics classes and caters for over 400 children of differing ages and abilities.

Our goal is to give every child an opportunity to take part in recreational gymnastics which is friendly, safe, and an enjoyable atmosphere. We want to use the sport of gymnastics to encourage an active and healthy lifestyle through our inclusive learn 2 programme, while being able to adapt and support your child's development stages.

Our gymnastics classes will be based on age ranges as detailed below:

• 2.5-4yrs
• 4-8yrs
• 9-12yrs
• 13-16yrs

Our gymnastics programme currently runs from Mossblown and Whitletts Activity Centre. 

Gymnastic Display Classes - Invite only

Our Display class will give an opportunity for gymnasts from 8 years and above who particularly enjoy incorporating dance and music alongside gymnastic skills to join our display team. The focus is on giving the children a chance to be creative, to learn social skills within in a fun, relaxed age appropriate environment

In addition, the team will be given the opportunity to perform at Gymfest which is one of the UK's premier non-competitive gymnastics display festivals and one of the most popular events on the Scottish Gymnastics calendar.
