Information for prospective Members
The club, which welcomes children, adults and those with special needs, caters for both recreational and competitive performers. Our classes are kept small and we always emphasize safety. We work to high standards and strive to ensure that each person reaches his or her full potential. The club works to a syllabus of proficiency awards.
Trampolining is an exhilarating sport-toning muscles, developing strength, confidence, co-ordination and courage as well as heart and lung fitness.
Properly taunt skills will give children a head start in their schools' sport and physical education programme because many skills and physical attitudes developed on the trampoline transfer easily and beneficially to many other sports-especially those that require strength and highly tuned co-ordination. Adults, especially, benefit from this sport. It also has the invaluable social advantage of enabling children to play and co-operate with one another in a disciplined but "fun" atmosphere of learning.
Our coaches have taught to national and international standard.
The club has the knowledge and experience to teach the most basic to the most advanced skills (right up to multiple twisting multiple somersaults) with correct and precise, style and technique.
Our competitive team members are consistently among the best in their grades in the London Division of the British Gymnastics Association.
Fees are £6.00 per session payable on a four weekly cycle in advance or £6.50 pay as you come.
You can take part in as many sessions as you wish. If you show promise and commitment you will be invited to join the competitive team which requires a minimum of four hours training a week at a considerably discounted rate.
There is a £48.00 a year membership fee payable on 1st October. This fee includes compulsory membership to the governing body, British Gymnastics, for insurance purposes.
If you are absent at any time then that time can be made up, without charge, at one of our special hours set aside for the purpose. These absences should be limited to holidays or illness. This "make-up time" does not apply to competitive team members.
There is a reduce rate for family members with two children at £70 and three children £90 membership per year.
If joining at any time between 1 October and 30 April the full membership is still payable, but, after 30 April on £25 membership is payable but followed by the full £48.00 the following October. Family membership after 30 April will be £60 and £85.
If you do not become a member then you will not be allowed to jump, because British Gymnastics (also know and BAGA), will not allow this. If you are already a member of the British Gymnastics you do not have to join again through us, and the BAGA element (currently £20.00) will be deducted from the £48.00, but evidence will be required of existing membership.
Classes are small and contain the optimum number to get the right amount of rest between goes, because continuous jumping on a trampoline is exhausting work. It should also be realized that Trampolining is a demanding sport both physically and mentally and like suck sports is not immune from inherent risk and hazards of possible physical injury.
When you join us we promise you that you will enjoy yourself, make friends and keep fit.
