Recreational classes are run by age groups of 4-5years; 6-8years and 9+years. Gymnasts work on all pieces of artistic equipment and follow our newly created award schemes (week 6). When gymnasts exceed the age group of the class they will be offered a space in the above age group if one is available.
Classes focus on fun, enjoyment as well as physical literacy; to promote development, where possible gymnasts will work with the same group and coach per week. The session content is available to view in the reception are each week and a full list of our award scheme is also available to view.
Gymnasts are able to trial 2 tasters before joining the club. After which gymnasts will need to be registered with British Gymnastics to continue the term. To do so, please visit british-gymnastics.org and click on ‘join’. Once you are a member, British Gymnastics membership is renewed annually. British Gymnastics will notify you when renewal is due.
Gymtopia North East Gymnastics Club opened on the 18th November 2014 and first began in both Kenton School sports hall and Wallbottle School sports hall with 3 gymnasts and 2 coaches; one of them being head coach and director Felicity Brown.
Felicity had always dreamed of opening her own club to cater for the local community and beyond, giving the potential for participants from all backgrounds to enjoy the sport of Gymnastics. Gymtopia quickly expanded to include multiple classes and in April 2017 opened in its own premises in Brunswick, Newcastle to accommodate the growing number of gymnasts in the club. Gymtopia is fully affiliated with British Gymnastics.
Gymtopia now houses over 500+ Gymnasts from Grassroots to national level and hopefully in the future compulsory elite. Beyond this, Gymtopia has 12 recreational classes per week and has developed a growing preschool section to encourage any future gymnasts and increase participation levels from an earlier age. Gymtopia aims to provide opportunities for all, including recreational, competitive and coaching opportunities. Gymtopia believes that sporting participation has great value in the lives of all, beyond the sport. Gymnastics teaches hard work, determination, teamwork and discipline.
It is with this work ethic that has enabled Gymtopia to have gymnasts compete all over the country since its opening in 2014, including representing the North of England region at National Finals multiple times. In 2018, Gymtopia also expanded to International competition, competing in Malta. The gymnastics club offers a range of disciplines including recreation, preschool, women’s artistic, women’s general, men’s general and Teamgym.
Gymtopia aims to give back to all its members and so Felicity has created the club to be a non-profit community club, all proceeds are invested back into the club for future expansions, increased participation and gymnast development.
