Despite being one of the youngest clubs in the University, we have already attracted a sizeable following of both male and female, beginner and experienced gymnasts. Lots of members gave up gymnastics when they were younger, but have taken it up again as an ideal way to keep fit, flexible and strong. We train twice a week, Wednesday and Thursday evenings, with fully qualified coaches. On Wednesdays we work on flexibility, body conditioning and basic floor skills, while on Thursdays we travel to a fully equipped gym in Glasgow to use the apparatus. The gym has a tumble track, vaults, asymmetric bars, beams, high bar, trampette and double mini.
Members have the opportunity to train as coaches and judges themselves.
We plan to do the same this year, and improve on our placings at Lilleshall, both in the team and individual events. Of course, the club is not without its share of social events too. Current information on club events is available from the club noticeboard on level 5 in the Stevenson Building. E-mail addresses available on the contacts page.
