Gymnastics for Kids
A leading “Gymnastics for All” program in Melbourne which aims to develop strong foundations of movement, physical literacy and positive experiences to be fit and active for life.
Artemis Gymnastics classes are designed to develop balance, coordination, strength, flexibility and confidence. We offer recreational gymnastics and tumbling programs for children aged between 4 and 10 years old, with a strong focus on broadening our reach through participation and personal growth. We maintain a 1 to 8 coach to child ratio in all our classes, enabling our accredited staff to spend quality time with each student to boost their experiences and development.
Gymnastics is the perfect foundation sport and lifestyle exercise program for children, developing a holistic range of fundamental skills to benefit both recreational participation and a competitive pathway in gymnastics. Plus, it is the ideal springboard for a positive transition to other sports or physical movement passions.
