Gymnastics For All

Sport and exercise is for everyone, and Gymnastics at Pennine gymnastics is no different. 

About Disability Gymnastics

From fundamental movements to high level gymnastics skills, additional needs gymnastics has something fun and engaging for everyone to enjoy. We recognise and value the many physical and social benefits of participating, such as developing increased coordination, strength and flexibility while making friends and feeling part of a club.

Disability Gymnastics at Pennine Gymnastics

Our Thursday sessions at Holmfirth High school are specifically designed around the capabilities of each participant. These classes are aimed at children with learning difficulties or disabilities who would benefit from a quieter, less busy class and with more coaches on hand to help out.

 It is a parent /carer assisted session, so we do ask parents / carers to work with their child (to the level needed). Our coaches will advise on how much involvement is required, and in some cases, develop a plan for your child to eventually work independently without a parent/ carer.
