In October 2016 the club moved to a wonderful new venue, with everything our gymnasts need; a competition-sized sprung floor, tumble and air tracks, vault, beam, bars, rings, pommel, trampettes and excitingly, a foam pit!  

Our enthusiastic coaching team is led by Head Coach, Jon Mutch (former British Champion, represented Great Britain and Scotland in the European and Commonwealth Games).  Jon has also appeared in films, such as Batman Begins, and the Fosters advert on TV!

We’re all about fun, fitness and friendship, with NEW classes for all ages and abilities. Fun recreational classes for children, squad sessions for those wishing to train harder and aspiring to compete, parent & tots sessions for children 3 and under and adult gymnastics sessions.

Also at the gym: Tricking, Freestyle Gymnastics, Cheerleading, and fitness classes.  The unit can be hired for events such as parties (eg. birthdays, hen-does) and corporate team building etc.

Recreational Classes Ages 4-16
At OLGC each recreational gymnastics class is designed to have lots of fun whilst learning gymnastics skills. All of our recreational classes focus on developing strength, flexibility, coordination and confidence whilst making friends and learning new and exciting skills. We encourage all gymnasts to reach their full potential at their own pace.
Each 60 minute class begins with a fun warm up and stretch, followed by scheduled rotations to vault, bars, beam, floor and tumble / air track, for the girls, and floor, pommel, rings, vault, parallel bars, high bar and tumble / air track for the boys. Gymnasts will be grouped according to skill level and age.
Skills taught in these recreational sessions include developing handstands, cartwheels, bridges, rolls, walkovers and many other basics. In every session we work on increasing strength, body control, flexibility, confidence and coordination.
Classes run for 44 weeks of the year. The gym is closed for 6 weeks during the summer holidays and 2 weeks for Christmas. Fees are spread out over the entire year (52 weeks), to keep payments equal each month, so fees are still due during the summer and Christmas break. Classes run as normal during bank holidays and half term breaks.

Register your child by coming to the gym or calling 0116 326 6324 or text 07813205852. Space is limited and classes fill quickly so you may be added to our waiting list for certain days.
