- Llandudno, Llanrwst & Colwyn Bay.
A fun packed programme that provides a progressive journey through recreational gymnastics.
Rise Gymnastics
- Provides children with foundation skills for life
- Sessions are fun and engaging
- Can be tailored and adapted to suit individual needs
- Provides a positive and high-quality experience
- Children can progress at their own pace
Rise Gymnastics contains three phases; Discover, Explore and Excel.
Across the three phases, every child can experience a wide range of activities, fundamental movement patterns and gymnastics skills, embracing their creativity, which leads to reward at every ability level, through success and achievement.
Age: Preschool, from walking age to preschool
Discover has three ability levels. Designed to capture a child's imagination. It is delivered through imaginative play with engaging themed activities which are linked to various life experiences. Children will earn rewards as they progress through the exciting-themed activities.
Each award is achieved when the gymnast can complete 12 out of the 16 skills offered.
Age: 5-8 yrs
Explore is aimed at school aged recreational gymnasts, who have either progressed through Discover, or are participating in the sport for the first time.
Explore offers fun, diverse, and engaging activities that enable ongoing and smooth progression for all gymnasts, helping develop physical, social, and emotional wellbeing.
Rise Gymnastics Explore has an Awards Scheme based around the following three areas: Core Skills, Apparatus and Working Together. Each area has four levels through which the gymnast can progress through.
Each award is achieved by completing 8 of the 12 skills offered.
Age: 9+
Excel is aimed at gymnasts who have already progressed through Explore, or if their skill level is already above those in Explore.
Excel offers enjoyable, exhilarating, and challenging activities that enable ongoing and smooth progression for all gymnasts. Throughout Excel we build on the skills that the gymnasts have learnt during Explore and take on some new ones.
Meanwhile, experienced and ambitious gymnasts will practice and perfect advanced gymnastics skills, gaining new skills through high quality and enjoyable activities.

Certificates
Development of the gymnasts will be continually assessed through logging weekly progress. This is in place of having stand-alone assessment sessions or stations, which some gymnasts can find daunting.
You can follow your child’s progress on the Rise Hub: (link coming soon).
The rewards for Rise Gymnastics include bright, colourful certificates and unique collectable medals to enable us to reward the child with something they will cherish.
