Artistic gymnastics is a dynamic sport where gymnasts complete short routines on equipment specially designed for the sport. The game is known for its artistry and grace and requires gymnasts to display exceptional balance, strength, and flexibility while doing somersaults, flips, and other acrobatic moves.

Artistic Gymnastics requires agility, amplitude, coordination, courage, flexibility, power, core, strength, and a combination of artistry and technical precision. 

Women's Artistic Gymnastics perform their exercise on four apparatus - Vault, Uneven Bars, Balance Beam and Floor Exercise. 

While Men’s artistic gymnastics is competing in six events - the floor exercise, the pommel horse, the rings, the vault, the parallel bar, and the high bar

Our training program follows the ALP (Australian Level Program) with a choice of recreational or competitive system.

Gymnasts in Nika-Kanika are not particularly categorized as competitive or recreational.

Our training system is to train all gymnasts equally. Gymnasts work at their own pace within their own ability range. We believe that gymnasts can learn their skills faster with more practice time. 

Recreational gymnasts get to cement the fundamentals of the sport through classes and can transfer the techniques and skills they've picked up to plenty of other sports later in life. There’s no pressure of impending competition. 

Gymnasts practicing recreationally are purely doing it to learn more, stay fit, and have fun. After all, it’s never too late to start, from beginners to experts and toddlers to adults.

Recreational gymnastics classes take place once or twice a week.

Competitive gymnastics requires a much higher level of commitment – in terms of time, money, pressure, and expectation.

Competitive gymnasts have a more strict schedule. They train for 9 to almost 20 hours a week depending on which level they are in. Skipping training sessions is not an option here unless there is a strong valid reason and the coaches expect a very high commitment and a fast-paced progression.

Kinder Gymnastics is a gymnastics class that can be followed by children aged 3.5 to 5 years, as an introduction before being more specific in an artistic gymnastics program. 

Our goal for this class is to give students a solid basic understanding of gymnastics body positions and skills.  Students will use all the equipment used in artistic gymnastics.  Students will practice climbing, rolling, jumping, swinging, bouncing, and hanging, which will help build strength, coordination, flexibility, and focus.

The classes provide an environment for children to develop physical and cognitive skills in a fun and playful way, at their own rate through guided exploration.

Watch your child grow in confidence and skill as they explore an environment that is safe, stimulating, and fun.
