Our Gymnastics lessons are available for school aged children aged 4 and over.

Check out our lessons below.
Here’s a bit more information about our Gymnastics Lessons.
We have gymnastics lessons after school on Monday, Wednesday and Friday at Blackpool Sports Centre.
Our lessons run throughout the year with two weeks off for a Christmas break and six weeks off for the summer holidays. We do not have any gymnastics lessons on Bank Holidays.
All of our gymnastics lessons are 45 minutes long.
Lessons are paid for in advance with a block payment of 10 consecutive lessons costing £54.00.
We will send you email reminders when you have 3, 2 and 1 lessons remaining. As long as you top up before your child’s 10th lesson, they won’t lose their place.
If your child already has an Active Blackpool Leisure Card, you can book them on by calling the centres on 01253 478474.
If they don’t, then just pop in to any centre with proof of their age and we will get them set up and booked on.
For popular lessons we may have a waiting list. We will fill lessons from this list so still put your child’s name down and we’ll get in touch as soon as a space is available.
If you’re not able to come in, then you can fill in the enquiry form at the bottom of this page and one of our team will get back to you.
Absolutely!
Awards and badges are a great way for children to see the progress they are making, be proud of their achievements and stay motivated.
Each stage has several awards within it which your child must pass in order to progress. Check out the ‘Gymnastics Level Awards‘ information in the Core Stage overview below to find out more.
Certificates and badges for all of the awards can be purchased from reception for £3.50.
We know it’s important for you to stay up to date with how your child is progressing. We want our teachers to focus on the quality delivery of their lessons so they won’t always have time to speak individually to you on the day.
To make sure you are kept informed we make it easy by updating your child’s progress throughout their lesson to a digital platform which you can then view.
Once you’re registered you can check in any time.

Core Stages
Gymnastics is perfect for helping kids develop fundamental movement skills to become fitter, stronger, more confident and co-ordinated.
The many benefits include improved balance, flexibility and co-ordination. It also can help your child to develop important social skills like teamwork, self-confidence and trusting in others.
Learning through fun and exciting activities, our non-competitive gymnastics programme will allow your child to develop skills at their own pace.
Starting at Stage 8 and progressing to Stage 1, skills are taught following the British Gymnastics guidelines.
