What to wear

For our Recreational Gymnasts we recommend leotards with shorts, leggings, styups (for boys) or tracksuits. All of which can be found in our shop here. Children are premitted to wear close fitting cropped sports tops, however, these tops are not recommended as they can be uncomfortable for bar work. Loose t-shirts that can be tucked in are also good but cropped loose fitting t-shirts are not permitted as they ride up, and are uncomfortable for the athletes and obstruct their view when upside down.

Other Recommendations

Hair must be tied back away from the face where possible. Jewellery and watches are not permitted. Newly pierced ears must be covered with micropore tape. Mobile phones are not to be used during sessions and must be kept with shoes/coats though we recommend not bringing mobile phones to the gym at all if possible as we do not accept liability for any damage during, before or after classes.
