SEND
Gymnastics

Our SEND classes are for children who require more support in order to be able to take part in a gymnastics class. We encourage parent involvement and these sessions are designed for children to socialise with others, explore fundamental movement and have fun. Gymnasts also have the opportunity to progress through our gymnastics award system. 

​

These classes are fully structured and lead by a British Gymnastics qualified disability coach, in accordance with our TEAM CRAVEN values. The sessions are 50 minutes long and are aimed at children from age 4 to 16.

 

SEND classes are tailored to your gymnasts individual needs, both physical and social, are a quieter class with less distractions and have a higher coach to gymnast ratio. Pre-booking is essential as places are limited to ensure class quality. 

​

Please NOTE:
British Gymnastics have changed their guidance on gymnasts with Down Syndrome. All children now need to complete Atlanto-Axial Instability Form before they are able to take part in gymnastics activity.

 

We will be requiring screening of all participants with Down Syndrome in structured sessions within the club. Screening can be carried out by a GP or chartered physiotherapist.

 

Classes are 50 minutes long and cost £7.50 per child per class paid monthly. 

We also offer two week trial sessions which can be booked via the links below. If you wish to continue after your trial we will require full sign up within one week to maintain your place.
