Improver Classes
These are brand new for September 2019. We have so many gymnasts of all levels and abilities that want to improve their gymnastics with another class option. We as a club couldn’t facilitate this for everyone so we came up with a Pay as you Go Improver Class option.
These classes will run each week and will focus on different apparatus and skills that children want to improve on. The cost is €10 per class and is only open to current members. Please follow the link below to see available classes and ability.
