Located in the heart of the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, London W8 and SW1X, we help people recognise and experience the joy of doing gymnastics to sustain a healthier and more fulfilling lifestyle.
Improve flexibility
Flexibility is a vital component of physical fitness that enhances a child’s overall gymnastics ability and reduces the risk of injury. At Kensington & Chelsea Gymnastics, we focus on stretching and varied movement such as splits, bridges, straddle and pike sit, etc., which help improve flexibility by increasing the range of motion in young joints and muscles. By engaging in gymnastics, children develop both strength and flexibility, laying a strong foundation for a healthy and active lifestyle.
Increase strength
Building strength is crucial for a child’s physical development, as it supports muscle growth, enhances coordination, and boosts confidence. At Kensington & Chelsea Gymnastics, we incorporate activities that require lifting, balance, and controlled movements, (like handstands and headstands, as well as various positions on mini bars) which effectively develop both core and overall body strength. Through gymnastics, children not only become stronger but also improve their posture and stability, fostering a robust and agile physique.
