“Gymnastics is a foundation for all sports. It demands a full range of physical and mental attributes and a combination of technical precision, artistry & creativity. Gymnastics is for fun, for recreation, for competition, for education, for excellence, for personal improvement. Gymnastics is a multidiscipline sport. Gymnastics is for life!”
GYMNASTICS CANADA GYMNASTIQUE (GCG)
The Sundre Gymnastics Club follows the GCG and Alberta Gymnastics Federation (AGF) criteria and goals. Our programs are designed to meet the needs of general and pre-competitive gymnasts and focus on having FUN with gymnastics, gaining FITNESS through gymnastics, and learning sound FUNDAMENTALS of gymnastics.
Our classes are organized according to age and ability. The SGC strives to improve fitness through flexibility, strength and endurance training. Progress is measured through the CANGYM Badge program which uses progressions to develop athletic skills. This program advances gymnasts through 12 levels of difficulty starting in Burgundy and ending in Gold.
Men’s and women’s artistic pre-competitive training prepares athletes for gymnastics meets through routine building, creativity, skill progressions and team co-operation. Small classes with 4 athletes and 2 coaches permit quality practice time in preparation for gym meets held in the spring.
Trampoline training is incorporated into general gymnastics classes and individuals can advance to higher levels of skill development by attending Trampoline Clinics held in the late November and early December. These clinics follow progressions which guide the gymnast through non-inverted, inverted and synchronized skills.
The SGC is fortunate to be well equipped with quality apparatus for both men’s and women’s artistic gymnastics, uses certified gymnastics coaches, and is strongly supported by parents and community.
All classes are held on Tuesdays and Wednesdays at:
Sundre Community Centre
# 2 310 Centre Street N
Sundre, Alberta
