Recreational Classes
Whether your child has been practising their bridges off the sofa or attending classes for years, we welcome children of all gymnastic abilities. Our lesson plans are built from the initial prep work needed to master a new skill upwards, so no child will ever be left behind! Our coaches will continuously adapt each new skill so your child can learn gymnastics safely, confidently and at their own pace. Your child will progress:

Learning New Skills
No class is ever the same at Astral. We coach new skills every week, so your child can reach their full gymnastics potential. Each of our sessions involves:
Fun warm-up games
Warm-up stretches
Flexibility and conditioning
Individual gymnastic skills circuits
Group acrobatics practise
Cool-down stretches
From cartwheels to round-offs to walkovers, we’ll support your child by breaking down new skills into easy-to-follow steps. We coach every individual gymnastics skill your child could wish to learn.
New friendships are made when our class comes together to work on our acrobatics. Your child will form a pair, trio or a larger group to practise impressive balances and dynamic moves. Balances and dynamic moves taught at Astral include:
Angel balances
Jump to catch
Counterbalances
Supported shoulder stands, cartwheels and handstands
Small Class Sizes
We care about providing high quality gymnastic sessions. This is why our classes are kept small. With only 16 children in each class, your child can expect to have lots of one-on-one coaching time to ensure their needs are fully met. Furthermore, it also allows our coaches to build good rapport with each gymnast, adding to the happy, supportive and nurturing environment we always strive to provide.
Exciting Equipment
During each session, your child can use all our fun equipment.
Each of our classes makes the most out of our:
Top tumblers
Air tracks
Rainbow Trampoline wheel
Air Discs
Vault
Ramps
Crash mats
Blocks
Pedestals
Unique Badge System
Your child can earn their badges and certificates at levels Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum
Each award is split into levels 1, 2 and 3. We have divided each award into levels so that more challenging skills can be broken down into easier progressions. Learning each progression, in turn, leads to your child consistently mastering higher skills.
Your child will be assessed and rewarded for their:
Individual gymnastics skills
Group acrobatic moves
Flexibility and motion
Conditioning and strength
