MEET THE COACHES
As a parent, you will no doubt want to know your child is in safe hands. Please be assured as a well-established club which has been running since 1967 all our coaches are qualified through our National Governing body (British Gymnastics) and all are enhanced DBS checked. They all hold certifications in Safeguarding & Protecting Children and are first aid trained too.
We also have a number of young trainee volunteer assistants many of whom are senior or ex-gymnasts themselves. They can be seen regularly helping out during classes and when they reach the age of 16 the club sends them on their first coaching course. The whole gym/building has CCTV in operation and no child enters a class or leaves the building unless registered in/out, so you know your child is in good hands.
